Operators we work alongside in Stonehaven

  • Spurryhillock Industrial Estate tenants
  • Stonehaven Harbour users
  • Mearns agricultural operators

Stonehaven on the ground: Coastal gusting at Spurryhillock and the harbour regularly closes MEWP and crane work above mid-spec wind limits — operators here need confident anemometer-based stop-work decisions.

Regulatory frame

PUWER 1998 and HSE L117 Approved Code of Practice.

Certification: Accredited forklift operator certificate. Equipment: Counterbalance and reach trucks.

Audit findings this prevents

  • Travelling with the forks raised — the most common HSE-citable defect on FLT audits
  • Pre-use checks signed off without actually walking the truck
  • Pedestrians cutting through reversing zones because segregation was painted but not enforced

Who this is built for in Stonehaven

Right fit

Warehouse, distribution, manufacturing and yard operators. Most urgent forklift jobs in Stonehaven we mobilise in 48–72 hours. The blockers are almost always your machine availability and getting candidates released from rota — not us.

What they leave with

  • Safe load handling, stacking and de-stacking
  • Pre-use inspections and daily checks
  • Pedestrian and traffic-route awareness
  • Refresher and novice paths available
