Forklift repair in Pico Rivera, California.
Truck down now? Call (323) 745-1414
Pico Rivera sits directly across the San Gabriel River from Montebello, and its industrial pockets, the Passons corridor, the Slauson district, and the newer parks along the 605 riverbank, are effectively our home turf: the shortest dispatches we run outside Montebello itself. The mix is mid-size distribution, food production, and a long tail of family-owned manufacturing and machine shops that have worked the same buildings for decades, often on forklifts of the same vintage.
Older trucks are a specialty by necessity here. A 1990s Toyota or Cat cushion truck with 15,000 hours is a workhorse worth keeping if someone maintains it like it matters: points of wear are known, parts remain available, and the repair economics beat replacement for a shop that runs it four hours a day. What kills these trucks is deferred everything, and what keeps them alive is the boring 200-hour service nobody else will drive out for. We will, priced off the same published table as everything else.
The neighborhood advantage runs both directions: Pico Rivera shops can get a tech between other calls when a small problem should not wait a day, and our PM route through the Passons and Slauson districts makes adding one more truck to a route stop cheap. The cost page has the numbers; Whittier and Santa Fe Springs pages cover the neighboring zones.
Where we dispatch around Pico Rivera
Passons Blvd · Slauson Ave · Rosemead Blvd south · the 605 riverbank parks, ZIP 90660. Rates, the travel call, and worked ticket examples are published on the cost page; fleet programs are covered on the planned maintenance page; and a down truck goes through the emergency page or straight to the phone.
Older LP trucks that die at idle or stumble under load usually need fuel-system and ignition attention, not the carburetor roulette that shops play for weeks. Tell us the symptom pattern on the phone; these trucks diagnose predictably.
Pico Rivera questions, answered
How close are you to Pico Rivera really?
Across the river. Passons and Slauson dispatches are commonly the first or last stop of a route day, and small jobs can slot between calls. This is the practical difference between a corridor shop and a dealer forty minutes down the 5.
Is a 25-year-old forklift still worth servicing?
Often yes, if it runs limited hours and gets real maintenance. Parts for the major-brand classics remain available, and a $600 repair on a paid-off truck beats a lease payment. When the math flips, we say so with numbers.
What do you charge for small jobs?
The same published labor rate and travel call as big jobs, on the cost page. Small repairs, seats, forks, tilt cylinders, hoses, mostly land in the $270 to $500 band including the visit.
Can you do propane system work?
Yes: regulators, vaporizers, tanks and brackets, fuel lock-offs, and the tune-up work LP engines need. LP fuel-system faults are the most common repair class on the older Pico Rivera fleet.
Do you offer anything for one- and two-truck shops?
The PM program scales down to a single truck: two to four scheduled visits a year keeps a light-duty truck legal, safe, and out of the emergency column. Small-shop PM is most of our Pico Rivera book.
