Great service company! Jason and Johnny take the time to listen to your needs and provide excellent advise. Need a part or rental? R & J can make it happen. Affordable prices, great service and their team will be out in seconds to service your forklift. We have searched for a company to certify our forklift drivers and they have been our go to for that as well! Give them a call you won't regret it.

Report
They bill you at the labor rate from time in to time out. That means that if the mechanic has to go to the bathroom, it's on your time. Or if he takes a break to have a drink. They took 10 minutes to process a payment on my credit card. That took them into the next 30 minute period, so they billed another $53. They also rent forklifts. On my last rental, I ordered a forklift with 6' forks and they delivered it with 4' forks. They finally came around to change to the 6' forks, but they didn't insert the pins to hold the forks in place, so they kept moving around. Then they came a couple of days
