Simple control across public service sites

Forklift support for local authorities managing depots, stores and public service fleets

WRMH helps local authorities and public service teams keep forklift support practical across depots, workshops, waste, stores, facilities, parks and highways operations.

Where WRMH fits

Forklift problems in local authorities are really uptime, safety and cost problems

WRMH brings repair, hire, training, compliance and equipment advice together so the answer is based on your site pressure, not a generic forklift checklist.

Scenario 01

Multiple departments using equipment in different ways

WRMH would help standardise service expectations across departments while still matching support to how each depot, workshop, stores or facilities team actually uses the equipment.

Scenario 02

Older or mixed fleets where records, repairs and ownership can become unclear

WRMH would build a clearer picture of fleet condition, repeat faults, inspection dates and repair spend so managers can decide where to maintain, hire, retire or replace.

Scenario 03

Training, LOLER and defect reporting that need visible control without extra complexity

WRMH would simplify the control points with planned LOLER reminders, clear defect routes and training support that helps supervisors prove the basics are being managed.
