We were trying to introduce a new member of the Agate MHE crew...

But Dotty had other ideas 🐶

The face behind the photo may already be familiar to some of our customers, but we'll save that introduction for another day.

For now, Dotty's enjoying her moment in the spotlight!

It's always nice to end the week with feedback like this 🤩👏

One thing Reece has always tried to do is be there when customers need support - even when that call comes through at 5:45pm on a Friday.

If a breakdown ever catches you out, Agate MHE is only a phone call away 👉 01489 347260

Agate MHE is proud to be CFTS accredited ✅

But what does that actually mean for customers?

In our latest blog, Reece breaks down what CFTS accreditation is, why it matters, and how it helps ensure forklift inspections are carried out to recognised industry standards.

The wait is over... 👀🚐

The Agate MHE van has officially had its makeover - and if we're honest, this one's a bit of a pinch-me moment!

When you're busy keeping things moving day to day, it's easy not to stop and appreciate moments like this. But seeing the Agate name properly sign-written on the van is something we're really proud of.

So if you spot us out and about, give us a wave 👋

Just don't judge us if we're still finding excuses to park it where everyone can see it...

Back to reality 👋🚐

After a few days away in Germany for Abbie's 30th birthday, Reece is back and ready for a busy June!

May certainly kept us on our toes, with 156 jobs completed across servicing, repairs, call-outs and customer visits 🔧🚚

The sunshine was a welcome bonus, but it was a busy month from start to finish - and June is already looking much the same.

We've also got something exciting to share in the next few days...keep your eyes peeled for the reveal of our newly sign-written van 👀🚐

It's safe to say you'll spot us coming!

CAT parked up in the yard with Arkells on site, and a proper run of sunshine this week ☀️🚛

Would we rather be in a pub garden? Probably.� But this’ll do for a workday 👀🍻

Two breakdowns attended at Mack in Southampton this month 🔧

One issue was a faulty emergency stop switch on a Skyjack scissor lift - diagnosed, part sourced locally, and back up and running the very same day.

The second was a fuse panel fault on a Still RX20-16C, traced and diagnosed to help get things moving again.

Breakdowns are never ideal, especially when equipment is needed day-to-day, so quick response and proper fault finding makes all the difference.

That’s exactly what Agate MHE is here for 🚐

Not sure this is what we meant by “getting our name out there”… 🐈

Reece’s cat decided our Agate MHE business cards looked more like a snack than marketing material.

Safe to say quality control has now been fully approved by management 👀

(Thankfully we ordered more cards!)

Safe to say this CAT EP50N won’t be sitting still for long 🚛

Recently supplied to Allflow Pumps & Pump Systems over in Waterlooville, this truck is now ready to get to work.

Spec’d up with a part cab (front, top & rear screens), container spec 4400mm triplex mast, 1500mm forks, and side shift, it was built to suit exactly what was needed on site.

One thing we’ve learnt is that no two businesses are the same - and the “right forklift” really depends on the work it’s going into. That’s why we always try to keep things straightforward and help customers find equipment that genuinely works for them, rather than just pushing whatever’s available.

If you’re looking to purchase a forklift for your business, feel free to get in touch with Agate MHE or have a browse through our current stock here 👇

Two birthdays celebrated recently at Agate MHE!

Not only has Agate MHE turned 3, but it was also our founder Reece’s birthday 👏

Over the last few years, there have been plenty of early starts, long days, miles on the road, and the occasional “will everything actually fit in the van?” moment 🚐

Like a lot of small business owners will understand, it’s easy to just keep working and let birthdays pass by like any other day.

But for once, Reece did actually take a day off last week to celebrate - with a trip to Diddly Squat Farm Shop while the weather was on its best behaviour ☀️

And he may or may not have spotted the main man himself 👀

Three years into building Agate MHE, things look very different these days… but the hard work behind it hasn’t changed much.

(There was probably cake somewhere in between too 🎂)
