Warehouse Equipment Hire Has Compliance Obligations That Generic Software Misses
Every powered pallet truck and walkie stacker is subject to LOLER inspection every 6 or 12 months. Battery maintenance is critical — abused chargers and overdischarged cells shorten asset life dramatically. Running a powered industrial vehicle fleet on spreadsheets means lapses in inspection, battery failures on site, and operators without current AITT certification using regulated equipment.
