What our customers have to say
KuzyaNY2024-10-07 The prompt and excellent service, when it’s vital. Qualified specialists when you need them. Mathew Schwartz2024-10-04 I was in a pickle, with an emergency last minute crate that I needed moved with a forklift. They were the only company I could find that would let me hire their forklift operator with the rental. I was separately coordinating with a truck delivery, when I mentioned it they offered to use their truck and save me a massive headache and cost. I'm not sure my situation is typically what they want to typically do for business, so I won't specify, but if they do I will update the review to recommend especially for that service (I think they can make a nice business by advertising it) I would have given 4.5 stars because of some lack of communication. I had specified the size, but it seemed this wasn't passed on and the truck operator didn't bring the right one. This also caused it to be randomly dropped off, but it worked out and I was stressed at the time (not because of them), so this probably sticks on my mind because of stress. highly recommended. I would use them again, assuming I wasn't to problematic of a customer and they would have me :) Gene Maddalena2024-07-25 The team at EFR is a great group of people. They know everything when it comes to fork lifts. They have worked on our 1987 Toyota fork lift, and they fix it right right, every time. I highly recommend trusting Phil and his team at EFR Corporation. Samuel Green2024-05-08 Amazing customer service quick time to get my machine, there was something wrong with my machine and instead of trying to fix it and me wasting time at work , the next day they came down with a new machine, really nice people someone is always there to reach out to and is super friendly . I will definitely be using them again Tara Lucasiewicz2024-04-05 Rich came to our location, a Naval base, to train and certify my co-worker and I for the Forklift (but his training was far more broad than the forklift alone). He is a great instructor, insuring that safety is the top priority. I was nervous but Rich made me feel very comfortable and at ease. I will definitely highly recommend! Thank you, Rich! Brian D2023-12-11 Just wanted to take a minute to say how great it’s been to deal with this company. Their service and sales is above and beyond. We have been using them for repairs on our 2005 walk behind for many years. Recently we decided to upgrade to a 2023 walk behind. Rich was our salesman and he’s gotta be one of the best in the business. Any question and problem he was on top of it. Anytime I had to call him he answered or got right back to me. This kind of service you don’t need much nowadays but I highly recommend this company! Peter Dominczak2023-08-28 The best there is , had my machine stuck outside l, they dropped everything and and came thru to get me up and running, awesome service highly recommend EFR forklift repair, been doin business with them for 15 years. Mark Browne2023-08-16 Rich helped me source a forklift that met my needs. Not only that, he held the machine for me for months based on a verbal commitment. I bought the machine sight unseen. Rich delivered a machine in top notch condition, fully refurbished. You just dont get the chance to business like this anymore, where a man’s word is his bond. I trust Rich implicitly. Not only do I have a fantastic business partner I can trust, but I hope he doesn’t mind If I go so far as to call him a friend. I cannot say enough about him and his business. 10 stars if I could. Thank you Rich. Don’t know where I’d be without you. N Pros2023-06-22 Fast Service. Great Technicians. Been using them for years they are very consistent.
