What's Your Equipment Plan for 2027?

“It takes as much energy to wish as it does to plan.” - Eleanor Roosevelt

What's Your Equipment Plan for 2027?

With the final weeks of 2026 approaching, now is a good time to evaluate what's working, what needs attention, and where improvements could make a difference in the year ahead.

Whether you're managing a single forklift or an entire fleet, a little planning today can help reduce unexpected costs and operational interruptions tomorrow.

A few questions worth asking:

Equipment: Are your current lift trucks meeting your operational demands, or is it time to consider replacements or additions?
Maintenance: Are you keeping up with scheduled service, or have repairs become more frequent?
Warehouse Efficiency: Could changes to equipment, storage, or material flow improve productivity?
Operator Readiness: Are your employees properly trained and prepared to operate equipment safely?

At Voss Equipment, we work with businesses throughout Chicagoland and Northwest Indiana to evaluate their material handling needs and identify solutions that make sense for their operations.

The right plan doesn't always begin with a purchase. Sometimes, it begins with a conversation.

November is a great time to review your fleet—and the Yale® Year-End Upgrade Event gives you another reason to plan ahead.

Whether you're onboarding new employees, refreshing existing skills, or reviewing operator qualifications, training is an investment in the people who keep

Ask About Operator Training

Consider your training needs:

Are new operators receiving appropriate instruction and evaluation?
Have existing operators been evaluated within the required timeframe?
Have changes in equipment, workplace conditions, or operating procedures created new training needs?
Are training records and certifications current?

As you plan for the coming year, make operator training part of the conversation.
