What does an hour of downtime really cost you?
Lost productivity. Missed deadlines. Frustrated teams. Unhappy customers. The list goes on.
The truth is, every minute your equipment is down, your business is losing money and momentum. That’s why we don’t just fix problems. We prevent them. Reliability in your world isn’t a luxury; it’s a necessity. That’s why we take a proactive service approach to catch small issues before they become big disruptions.
Still, unexpected breakdowns happen. That’s why our OEM-trained service engineers are strategically positioned, fully equipped, and ready to respond fast, with the right parts and the right expertise to get you back up and running, fast. Your equipment should be working for you, not costing you. That’s why our service is focused on maximising uptime and minimising risk.
So, let us ask you again: How much is downtime really costing your operation, and how much longer can you afford to wait?

Our Featured Case Study.
Having started with just a few assets, Dawsongroup’s Smarter Asset Strategy for Verallia has supported its growth and, as a result, the majority of its warehousing equipment is now supplied by Dawsongroup…
We pride ourselves on our great customer care.
Dawsongroup made the move from diesel to electric absolutely seamless. The X5 forklift delivers exceptional performance, and the support from Dawsongroup, from training to maintenance, has been second to none.

Our ageing fleet was causing constant delivery delays through excessive downtime, and the service support from our previous supplier just wasn’t up to standard. Dawsongroup listened to what we needed and delivered the right solution for our business. The service since then has been excellent – communication is quick and easy through a group chat, and any maintenance is carried out efficiently. The engineers arrive fully prepared, which means less disruption and more uptime for us. The right solution and equally impressive service support have transformed our operations, giving us confidence in our ability to deliver on time.

Operations Site Manager, Sharpsmart Rainham
We changed to Dawsongroup primarily for the service, on the occasions when repairs are needed, they’re usually fixed the same day, depending on what time we call. It makes a big difference as we have much less downtime than before. The more trucks we have running, the more efficient we are.
John Burns
Transport Warehousing Dispatch Manager, Sheard Packaging
We began replacing other equipment as contracts came to their end, and after building a solid relationship, now the majority is covered by Dawsongroup. Better service and a faster speed of repair from Dawsongroup has improved our productivity significantly.

Warehouse & Material Handling Account Supervisor, Verallia
Do you know what good service is? Not just call-outs and maintenance, but the whole support package you get with a company like Dawsongroup. I often receive calls and emails from other FLT suppliers, but I know that whatever they promise, I already have everything I need with Dawsongroup.
