Yates County Winery lp

Question 1

Do you serve the Finger Lakes and Yates County Area?

Accepted Answer

Yes. MS Equipment Sales serves businesses throughout the Finger Lakes region, including Penn Yan, Yates County, and surrounding areas. Our Rochester-based headquarters has been serving Western New York for 40 years, offering local service you can count on.

Question 2

Can I rent a forklift for the harvest season instead of buying?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Seasonal forklift rentals are a smart option for smaller or startup wineries and agricultural operations during harvest without a long-term commitment. Many operations begin renting a forklift for the season before transitioning to purchasing when the need becomes consistent.

Question 3

What types of equipment do you service?

Accepted Answer

We service a wide range of forklifts, pallet jacks, telehandlers, industrial floor equipment, and more. If you have industrial, agricultural, or construction equipment that needs repair or maintenance, it's likely we are able to help.

Question 4

What types of equipment are best for wineries and agricultural settings?

Accepted Answer

It depends on your operation. For outdoor use like vineyards, orchards, and loading docks, pneumatic tire or rough terrain forklifts are ideal for handling uneven ground. For indoor cellar and production work, electric pallet jacks and lithium-ion forklifts are a cleaner, low-maintenance option. Telehandlers are common for agricultural operations that need extended reach.

Question 5

Can you service or repair equipment we already own?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We service all major brands, not just equipment purchased or rented from us. Whether it's an equipment breakdown, need scheduled maintenance, or want to set up a planned maintenance program, our skilled service team will help reduce downtime and extend the life of your equipment.

Question 6

How quickly can we get parts or service?

Accepted Answer

We have a large stock of parts from major brands including CLARK, HELI, and Kubota, and can source additional parts to minimize downtime. We understand that peak season gets busy, so contact us directly and we'll you scheduled as quickly as possible.

Question 7

Do you carry parts for equipment we didn't buy from you?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We stock and source parts for a variety of forklift and material handling equipment brands. If you have a piece of industrial equipment that needs a new part, contact us and we can track it down.

Question 8

Do you offer forklift safety training for our staff?

Accepted Answer

Yes. At MS Equipment, we offer a range of OSHA- and ANSI-compliant forklift safety training programs, including operator certification, re-certification, and "Train the Trainer" courses. OSHA requires all forklift operators to be trained and re-certified every three years. Contact us to schedule a customized training on-site at your facility now.
