Every so often when working within the construction trade, it is likely that you’ll require the assistance of a particular tool or piece of equipment which you don’t have in your armoury. Instead of popping to your local tool specialists and buying the said tool/piece of equipment (knowing full well that it’ll only be used once in a blue moon); why not contact a tool and equipment specialist and hire the apparatus for as long as you need it? Here at MJC, we’re able to provide forklift Reading and telehandlers for hire for as long as required.
Hiring a forklift is as simple as contacting us here at MJC, informing us of what type of forklift you require and waiting for it to arrive. However, as the hirer there are a number of responsibilities that you’ll be accountable for, all of which can be seen in our terms and conditions. However, below is a snippet of these responsibilities.
Delivery of vehicle:
The first thing that you are responsible for, before the forklift is delivered to your site is to ensure that you have relevant insurance, especially for the day to day usage of said machinery.
Here at MJC we regularly maintain and service our equipment, but it is important that when the forklift arrives on site, you, the hirer, inspect it to ensure that everything is as it should be. If you do for some reason detect a fault, then as part of the rental agreement, you need to inform us immediately and we’ll rectify the situation.
It’s also the responsibility of the hirer to unload the equipment when it arrives and load it onto the removal vehicle at the end of the agreement.
Use of vehicle:
Like cars or motorbikes etc, every forklift is different to operate. It’s therefore your responsibility to ensure that you have been instructed on the safe and proper use of the vehicle you’re hiring. Whilst it is left on your site, it’s also your responsibility to ensure that it isn’t used illegally or by anyone who hasn’t received training or isn’t insured to use the forklift Reading. As long as these conditions are met, you’ll have use of top quality machinery for as long as required.

It’s true that in many circumstances the very biggest heavy duty forklift is required, such as on construction sites where rough terrain is normal. Here at MJC Services we can easily provide such fork lifts Reading at competitive hire prices, but we’ve also noticed that, occasionally, lighter and less conspicuous versions of these utility vehicles are required. That’s why we provide a market leading range of electric forklifts capable of meeting more specific needs, and many customers are surprised at how useful such tools actually are. There are a number of circumstances wherein electric trucks are far superior to their combustion engine counterparts.
For example, due to the fact that they’re either battery or fuel cell powered, electric fork lifts are very quiet during operation. In indoor environments this is a massive bonus, as it means that lifts can be used constantly in warehouse settings, or even on retail sites, without massive disruption to staff and customers.
If you’re based in or are working in a residential environment, especially during the night, there may be sound pollution regulations to adhere to, which could prevent you from getting on with whatever you have to do. An electric fork lift from the team here at MJC Services represents the ideal solution.
While reduced noise is a huge advantage, many clients choose electric trucks due to their relative eco – friendliness. If you have a commitment to reducing your carbon footprint, either as an individual or as part of your corporate targets then hiring an electric vehicle with zero exhaust fumes (like ours) can help you get your job done without sacrificing your principles.
If you’re looking to hire a fork lift Reading then don’t make the mistake of thinking that only the mainstream combustion trucks are available. Electric alternatives could be more cost effective, safer for your environment and overall more suitable for the task at hand.

Working on a building site can be a hard time which requires working in all elements and lifting various materials up flights of scaffolding. But there are some materials, which prove too heavy or too impractical to be carried up ladders. In these situations, the use of forklifts Reading become all too attractive, but only if the vehicle is able to live up to the strains of working on uneven and boggy ground.

Along with being able to lift heavy goods, from pallets of bricks through to wood for roofing and other materials required on a building site, rough terrain fork lifts are able to tilt their forks forward making it easier to load goods onto various platforms around your construction site. Clearly, this makes it easier for you to get to the materials and complete the job quicker.
We can supply you with fork lifts to hire for as long as required. Whether you’re looking to use rough terrain fork lifts Reading for a day just to carry materials from one part of the site to another, or whether you’ll be requiring the strength and endurance of our fork lifts for longer we have competitive prices and flexible policies to suit.

When dealing with large, awkward or heavy goods, manpower alone is often insufficient for the task at hand. Attempting to move such goods without the aid of machinery, may result in loss of valuable time and resources, not to mention presenting a significant health and safety risk. Luckily, there is equipment available to help make the movement of large goods far quicker and easier. A forklift Reading can allow the user to effortlessly transport products to the desired location, without the strain and exertion experienced from manual labour. Here at MJC, we offer a range of fork lift trucks and telehandlers to enable you to complete you tasks with maximum productivity.
Useful within many premises and warehouses, fork lifts will enable you or your business to swiftly move and arrange goods across the site. They are highly useful when organising effective storage, as they contain the power to lift goods to a high level, for more efficient use of space.
Each of our trucks are regularly inspected and serviced, to ensure that when you receive the equipment, it’ll be ready and raring to complete any task which you may require, providing ultimate reliability.

Throughout your rental time, full support and help will be provided to assist with any problems you may require.

When dealing with the movement of heavy goods, the process can escalate into a timely and labour intensive procedure. Given the correct equipment however, the process needn’t be so difficult or time-consuming. The use of high quality machinery within a warehouse or industrial setting, has the ability to turn mammoth tasks into ones of far more digestible proportions. Here at MJC, we provide fork lift Reading hire, for use within jobs of varying sizes and requirements, for ultimate ease within all transportation of large or awkwardly sized goods.
Within a warehouse, the ability to relocate specific goods is an essential part of its function. Where large goods are unable to be stored elsewhere, warehouses offer a spacious and secure area within which objects can be placed. Therefore, without the ability to easily organise, locate and move such goods, the potential functionality is greatly diminished.
Through hiring such machinery as a fork lift Reading, you’ll be able to make maximum use of the potential which is available to you. As a productive way to move several objects at once, fork lift trucks can increase your productivity, and enable you to invest more time in other areas. They also greatly aid within the overall organisation, effortlessly allowing for storage of goods in higher areas, thus creating more space within your warehouse or premises.
Our range of trucks includes electric forklifts, which prove extremely economical, due to the absence of exhaust fumes. As reliable vehicles, you can rest assured that they won’t let you down for your intended purpose. For more heavy duty work, our counterbalance or industrial forklifts are able to perfectly carry out the job at hand, offering a safe and sturdy means of transporting goods over your site.

In order to have the best chance of securing projects, construction firms must ensure that their workmanship is not only of the very highest standard but it must be reasonably cost effective too. One way that companies can look to drive down costs, is by cutting out time that is wasted on unnecessary processes. Transporting materials to and around a construction site manually can be both difficult and time-consuming. At MJC we believe that hiring a forklift Reading could help firms to make their projects more efficient.
Fork lift trucks can help building companies to transport bricks, breeze blocks and other items much easier. What’s more, they can also prove to cut down on the number of injuries experienced in the workplace – saving firms further time and money.
In addition to their usage in the construction industry, fork lift trucks are commonly used within warehouses to transport heavy goods. They could boost efficiency considerably by enabling individuals to store goods in higher areas, using the space much more productively.
At MJC we understand that buying heavy duty equipment such as fork lift trucks, isn’t always cost effective. For this reason we can offer fork lift trucks on a long term or a short term rental basis, meaning that whether a business needs a truck for just a day or to help them complete an entire project, we have a suitable solution available.
We offer a vast range of fork lifts in a selection of sizes and varieties, ranging from 1.5 tonne to 10 tonne weight capacities. Prices are very reasonable and start from just £50 for a day or £80 for a week. Firms that could benefit from a fork lift Reading can learn more about the products or place an order by filling out our online enquiry form.
