FORKLIFT VARIETY
Choosing a company that offers a variety of forklift makes and models ensures that you’ll be able to find the right forklift for the job. Not all forklifts are created the same, and you’ll need a company that can ensure that the forklifts you hire can handle the loads and requirements of the job at hand.
- How much will you need to lift?
- What lift capacity do you require?
- How many pieces will you need to move?
- Do you have trained operators on hand?
- Are the operators trained in the specific forklift brand and model?
- What attachments will you need?
- What fuel type is required?
- What wheel type is required?
- What terrain will be covered?
At Canton Erectors, we offer a fleet of forklifts and lift trucks that can handle up to 150,000 pounds, with specialized equipment and attachments that can get the job done. Our fleet can reach up to 24 feet high, providing superior extension and stability.
Just as important, our team of techs and operators are trained to handle the equipment safely and professionally.
FORKLIFT SAFETY AWARENESS
Safe operation is a critical consideration when it comes to forklift services. Check to make sure every forklift operator is required to be trained and certified to ensure that they are up to date on the latest safety guidelines and regulations put forth by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
Canton Erectors requires all forklift operators to be trained and certified in this way, part of our commitment to making safety a number one priority. We also ensure that each truck in our fleet is properly maintained and serviced for optimal performance and safety.
FORKLIFT LICENSES, PERMITS AND INSURANCE
Part of safe forklift operations is licensing and insurance. Some companies don’t include this as a standard component of their forklift services, and it could have tough consequences down the line for your business if something goes wrong. Licensing, permitting and insurance is a must for ensuring that all paperwork is order and applicable laws followed. Failure to do so can set you up for trouble, even legal conflicts, so it’s important that the forklift service company you choose is knowledgeable about Ohio and national laws and regulations. It also protects you from loss or damage for the equipment itself.
Canton Erectors takes care of all necessary paperwork, permitting, insurance and licenses, ensuring that all forklift rigging, lifting and transport is handled with care. Coordinating these details is part of the A-plus service that CEI offers each of our customers.
