Preventive battery maintenance

Keep pallet jack batteries alive longer and keep equipment on the floor.

We show up on a recurring schedule, inspect every battery, add distilled water as needed, and leave behind a service record your team can actually use. That means fewer dry cells, fewer surprise replacements, and fewer pallet jacks sidelined when you need them most.

Preventive service Fewer failures. Better battery history.

Why this matters

Most battery failures are preventable, but almost nobody tracks them consistently.

The problem is usually simple: low water, weak cells, missing history, and no one catching the drift until the pallet jack starts falling out of rotation. A recurring service record makes the problem visible before it becomes expensive.

Prevent premature battery replacement
Reduce downtime from dead pallet jacks
Track every battery by date, voltage, and water added
Build a maintenance history for every asset
Extend equipment life with recurring service

Operational outcome

Fewer dead units

Catch low batteries before they become a forklift-area problem.

Management outcome

Better visibility

Every visit leaves behind dated readings, water logs, and asset history.

How it works

A route-based service model built around repeat visits and visible reporting.

Step

Arrive on site

Select the customer, location, and pallet jack by asset tag or QR code.

Step

Inspect the unit

Open the pallet jack, verify battery positions, and check the bay condition.

Step

Record readings

Log voltage, distilled water added, condition, and notes for each battery.

Step

Sync history

Customer dashboards update automatically with charts, service logs, and alerts.

Plans

Choose the service rhythm that matches how hard your fleet gets used.

Heavy-use sites usually need weekly attention. Smaller or steadier fleets can move to biweekly or monthly service and still keep the reporting, history, and visibility customers expect.

Weekly

Weekly Care

For high-throughput warehouses that need tight battery hydration control.

Voltage readings for every battery at every visit
Distilled water logging by service date
Priority weak-battery alerts and route notes

Every Other Week

Biweekly Care

Balanced preventive service for steady daily operations.

Recurring inspections and customer reporting
Inventory updates across locations
Trend lines that surface batteries slipping toward weak status

Monthly

Monthly Care

Entry-level coverage for smaller fleets that still need documented maintenance.

History per pallet jack and per battery
Monthly battery health snapshots
Cost-awareness reporting and service summaries

Self-Service

DIY Application

Your team performs the battery checks and watering while using BatteryTrackr to log, trend, and report the data.

Use the customer portal, QR workflow, and service logging without the recurring onsite route
Track voltage, water added, notes, and battery history by asset and by location
Great fit for in-house teams that want the software and reporting layer first

Sales-ready visuals

Show managers the battery trend before they feel the downtime.

Public visitors can see sample trends without exposing customer data. Logged-in customers and admins get the deeper view: battery history, weak-unit alerts, service activity, and portfolio reporting.

Reviews & field feedback

What warehouse teams notice once the history starts building.

This section stays grounded on operational value instead of generic five-star fluff: less guessing, better reporting, and fewer ugly surprises when a pallet jack drops out of service.

Recovered a pallet jack we thought was dead

“We had a pallet jack that had not worked in over a year and assumed it would need all new batteries, which we were told could cost at least $1,500. Matthew found all four batteries completely dry, added about 1.5 gallons of distilled water, charged each battery individually since the onboard charger would not start, and within a couple of hours all four batteries were reading over 5 volts and the onboard charger came back to life. The next morning we put it back into normal use, and it ran just like it used to. Total cost was under $200, and we were able to avoid replacing the entire battery set. Huge savings and great service.”

Angelyn Angelyn, MXM

It fixed the operation, not just the batteries

“Before BatteryTrackr, we were replacing batteries every 10 to 15 months and constantly dealing with dead pallet jacks. After switching, our costs stabilized at about $6,000 per month, but the real win was eliminating equipment shortages. We stopped waiting on pallet jacks, routes moved faster, and overtime dropped significantly. This did not just save money. It fixed our operation.”

Less surprise replacement spend

“The biggest value is seeing weak units early enough to act before four neglected batteries turn into a downtime event.”

Dana Roberts Operations Director, Valley Logistics Group

Reporting people can actually use

“Warehouse managers want something concrete to show leadership. The charts and service history finally give them that.”

Chris Nguyen Customer Admin, Central Wholesale Supply

The route became easier to manage

“Once each pallet jack had a real service trail, it got much easier to plan follow-ups instead of reacting to whichever unit died first.”

Erica Salazar Fleet Coordinator, Delta Cold Storage

The customer can see the work

“The charts help because the customer can actually see what happened at each visit instead of hearing a vague summary after the fact.”

Marcus Bell Field Service Lead, Inland Equipment Services

It helps justify preventive service

“When leadership can compare routine service against replacement and downtime, the preventive plan is much easier to approve.”

Tina Alvarez General Manager, North Yard Distribution

Territory expansion

Looking for operators who want to build recurring service routes in active warehouse markets.

This is a practical field business: recurring battery maintenance, repeat account visits, and a customer-facing platform that helps the service look organized from day one.
