  • I have been working on forklifts of all brands for 17 years. I specialize in electric lifts but also work on diesel, gas and lp. Im also a certified battery specialist on industrial size batteries and chargers. There has never been a job to small or to big for me. I took on a lead Tech position when Wiese bought us out and have been able to learn alot about team working skills with all our employees and how every one of us is different but we all have the same goals in mind and that is to Simplify our customers lives by delivering complete material handling solutions with excellent service. One of the main reasons that I enjoy working for with this company is we all Honor God, Valve people, and it truly does feel like a Family. Which means alot to me and my family.
