Customer Reviews
Durable, lightweight engineering, low cost and friendly staff. As soon as I placed the call, the salesman was making plans to arrive at our warehouse to help figure out exactly what application was going to work best for my team. He made it to us within just a few days of the initial conversation, and we were able to come up with an extremely safe solution that worked! The equipment purchased was delivered sooner than our salesman originally estimated!
We were able to almost double our productivity after purchase of the MAUI. We love how light this unit is! We also love how, compared to other models on the market today, SafeRack has the MAUI that is free standing, lightweight, easy to move in and out of tight areas and is simple to operate.
We searched high and low for a good lightweight, adjustable platform for our warehouse. If it would not have been for SafeRack's durable, lightweight engineering, low cost and friendly staff, we would still be on the market searching today!

Thanks Jason, Kim and SafeRack!! Jason McKnight is a superstar! He responded to my call for help with a damaged gangway immediately, and got my order placed and shipped in record time! Great Job, Jason!
Kim Anderson followed up right away with an order acknowledgement and details about shipping. Since we were unable to load any trucks until the replacement equipment arrived, their assistance enabled our company to get back out on the road with as little delay as possible. Thanks Jason, Kim and SafeRack!!
