Mobile Forklift Repairs in Suffolk

We carry out forklift repairs on your own site in Stowmarket and across Suffolk. When a forklift stops, the rest of the business slows with it, so our engineers aim to get it working again as quickly as possible and, where we can, on the same day.

Our vans carry service kits and a wide range of parts, so most problems are fixed where the truck stands, which saves you the cost and time of moving it.

What Happens After You Call

When you call MTE Services about a repair, the most useful details are the make, model and serial number of the truck, with a short description of the fault: what you have noticed, whether it has broken down before, how long it has been happening and whether it can still be driven.

With that information we give you an arrival time for our engineer. On site, they run the checks your fault needs and tell you whether any parts are required, so your forklift is back at work sooner.

Forklift Services for Suffolk Businesses

Our forklift services cover the whole life of a truck: repairs and breakdowns, planned maintenance, annual servicing and thorough examinations, spare parts, hire and sales. MTE Services works on all makes and models, and is a distributor of Kelvin, Feeler, EP and Agrimac forklifts.

We have a fully equipped workshop at our base in Stowmarket for larger jobs, and we keep a large stock of parts from reputable manufacturers so repairs are not held up. If a part is not in stock, we can usually get it within 24 hours.

Every repair starts with a written quote and an estimate of how long the work will take, and we never start without your approval.

Once a forklift passes 200 operating hours, planned maintenance is the best way to avoid unexpected breakdowns. MTE Services can look after your trucks on a maintenance contract, or come out for an emergency repair when one breaks down.
