Planned forklift maintenance is essential for ensuring the safety, efficiency, and longevity of these critical pieces of equipment in any industrial or warehouse setting. Whether an electric forklift or one run by an internal combustion engine, planned maintenance is essential for both. 

Forklifts are a vital component for operating a warehouse or distribution center. Forklifts can be expensive and a purchase many not be feasible financially. There are positive reasons for renting. As a cost-effective option for operations not needing a forklift full-time, a rental cost is only based on the number of days or weeks it is needed. 

In most types of warehouses and distribution centers, the forklift is the most used vehicle for material handling. However, there are other types of vehicles available to run an efficient and profitable operation.
