“We were looking for a new forklift for our new warehouse. I rang for some advice and spoke to Barry, who was really helpful. I ended up driving down with our team to see a new truck and purchased on finance. Got good advice from Alex and the warranty is much better than previous trucks we have bought.”

“We decided to stop by Trucks Direct one day when we were out on a delivery and Chris was kind enough to spend some time with us to discuss our needs and show up the most appropriate truck. We ended up buying a new Greenpower machine and are over the moon with it.”

“Absolute 5 star service! Had an issue with a forklift, Brady was able to expertly diagnose the issue over the phone. Lee then arrived the following morning to rectify the fault. Both their professionalism and knowledge was second to none and they truly are a credit to the business. Nothing was too much trouble.”
