Owning material handling equipment is expensive but we’re here to help.

Give us a call today to get started.

How to Save Money on Total Cost

We’ll be the first to say it: owning and operating equipment is a significant investment. It’s way more than the purchase cost. Owning equipment consists of repairs, maintenance, overtime, fuel, and damage. Most of all the operator costs are 80% of the total cost.

What if you could:

  • Improve productivity within your organization?
  • Reduce operating costs?
  • Keep employees safe and customers satisfied?

What kind of impact would that have on your business? Here we’ve compiled our recommendations for reducing your total cost of operating your fleet. MH Equipment offers all these solutions, and you can give us a call today to get started. Implementing any of these changes will help you reduce downtime, boost productivity, and improve your bottom line.

Fleet Management

Do you have so much data yet are still unclear about your fleet’s performance? Fleet management will give you a holistic view of your material handling operations, helping you make better decisions for your business. We’ll work with you to break down exactly where you’re spending resources on your material handling equipment. We’ll find areas to save you money.

Our fleet management services save you time, money, and space in your operation. Whether you run a large or small business, fleet management will help you improve efficiency and make the most of your investment. Here’s how:

  • Fleet management eliminates the guesswork. Our team will ensure that your operations are running as efficiently as possible. We’ll make recommendations to ensure you have the right equipment for the job. Our software will provide reports to determine if you need additional or fewer assets.
  • We’ll keep your equipment up to date. Inefficient equipment can cost thousands in parts, labor, and downtime.
  • Make your workplace safer. We’ll monitor your equipment and operations at all times to reduce your risk of injury, property damage, and downtime. We know safety is a top priority.

Warehouse Efficiency

Schedule a meeting with our team of experts to identify ways to improve warehouse efficiency and streamline operations. We’ll inspect things like operator travel time, congested pick paths, and product ‘flow’. Your goal, as a best-in-class operation, should be to ship 99.87% of shipments on time.

We’ll also be able to spot high-risk areas for potential injuries and give suggestions for how to correct them. Did you know that the average injury direct cost is $38K? We’ll help you reduce injury rate and avoid safety violation fees.

These are key factors in optimizing your workspace and ultimately reducing your total costs.

Maintenance

Maintenance on your equipment isn’t a question of “if”, it’s a question of “when”. Did you know that unscheduled maintenance is 7 times more expensive than planned maintenance? The best time to start thinking about regular vehicle maintenance is today. Caring for your equipment is an investment upfront that will pay off in the long run because your machines will run cleaner and longer for years to come.

Regular maintenance can keep equipment running at optimal capacity, reduce downtime, and improve operator safety. We’ll help you determine what level of maintenance you need, whether it’s regularly scheduled preventative maintenance or a full long-term maintenance agreement.
