OSHA-aligned safety inspections for forklifts and heavy equipment. Documented checks performed on-site, with written reports for your records.
OSHA expects regular documented inspections. A written report from a qualified technician supports your compliance record.
Many serious failures (brake wear, mast issues, hydraulic leaks, electrical faults) develop quietly. A structured inspection catches them before they become incidents.
Documented inspection history strengthens your position if an incident occurs.
The whole point. Equipment that passes a real inspection is equipment that's safer to run.
Our detailed process ensures each primary function and linkage is physically reviewed. Each inspection ends with a written report identifying findings, severity, and recommended action.
And many more. If it runs, we can service it.
Tell us your equipment list and location. We schedule the inspection on a date that fits.
A technician inspects each unit against the standard checklist, on your site.
You receive a written report on every unit, with findings, severity, and recommended follow-up. Repairs can be quoted and scheduled from the same visit.
Based in Belen. Serving Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, and surrounding communities, with statewide service when the job requires it. An on-site service fee applies, with drive time charged for jobs outside city limits.

Any unit with a safety defect has to be pulled from service immediately and can’t go back to work until it’s repaired, since operating it further is a serious OSHA violation with fines that can run into the tens of thousands per instance. Apex Forklift Solutions documents every finding by severity in the written report, and can quote and schedule the repair from the same visit so the equipment isn’t sitting idle any longer than it has to.
OSHA doesn’t set a fixed retention period for daily inspection logs, but most companies keep them for six months to a year as proof that inspections are actually happening. Some states, like California, do require a full year. Every visit from Apex Forklift Solutions comes with a written report you can file alongside your daily logs to build a complete compliance record.
Daily pre-shift checks are done by the operator, but a deeper scheduled inspection should be handled by someone trained to evaluate brakes, hydraulics, structural condition, and other systems that go beyond a quick visual walk-around. Apex Forklift Solutions performs these scheduled inspections on-site and backs each one with a written report covering every system checked.
A safety inspection is focused on identifying whether the equipment is currently safe to operate, while preventive maintenance is focused on servicing components on a schedule so failures are less likely to happen in the first place. The two often get scheduled together for convenience. Apex Forklift Solutions offers both, and can coordinate them so a fleet gets checked and serviced in the same visit when it makes sense.
Yes. OSHA’s daily inspection requirement and the value of a periodic professional inspection apply regardless of how often a specific unit runs, since equipment sitting unused can develop its own issues like flat spots on tires or degraded hoses. Apex Forklift Solutions inspects every unit on the equipment list for a visit, not just the ones getting daily use.
