Forklift hire software: fleet, servicing & compliance
Forklift hire: fleet on hire, services on time. Hire, servicing and compliance together.
Fleet tracked on a whiteboard, services missed and safety inspections on paper. We build forklift hire systems that keep machines working and compliant.
Looking for forklift hire or service management software?
Forklift businesses juggle hire, sales and servicing. Every machine needs regular checks and records. We build systems that handle fleet, contracts and compliance.
Wollopit builds booking, dispatch, tracking and proof-of-delivery systems for forklift hire businesses around how your runs actually work. We connect the tools you already use, replace the ones holding you back and look after the lot on our own servers, so the office, the drivers and the customers see the same thing.

06How we work
The process
Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.
We get properly below the surface of your forklift hire business: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.
- 01
Think
We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.
- 02
Archi-tech
We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.
- 03
Build
Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.
- 04
Look after
We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.
07Questions
FAQ
Things forklift hire businesses ask us.
Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.
Can we track hours meters?
Yes. Hours can be logged at each visit or synced from telematics to trigger services automatically.
How much does it cost?
It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your forklift hire business. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.
Do drivers need special devices?
No. Driver tools run on the phones they already carry, with big buttons, photos and signatures that sync when there's signal.
Can customers track their job?
Yes. Customers can get a live tracking link, ETA texts and proof of delivery without ringing the office.
Who looks after it once it's built?
We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.
We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?
Usually, yes. Most forklift hire businesses we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
