Materials Handling and Heavy Equipment Solutions

Forkwest is now Adaptalift Southwest.

Established in 1993 by Phil Baker, the business began in Picton servicing the material handling industry across the Southwest before relocating to a workshop in Halifax, Bunbury in 1996. Today, Adaptalift Southwest services customers across Western Australia, providing a comprehensive range of equipment solutions, including forklifts, material handling equipment and now JCB construction and agricultural machinery.

As an authorised JCB dealer, our equipment offering has expanded to include JCB excavators, telehandlers, backhoe loaders, agricultural tractors, wheel loaders and more. Whether you need equipment for material handling, construction, agriculture or other applications, our experienced team can provide the right machine for the job.

Our commitment doesn’t end with equipment sales. From our fully equipped workshop, our experienced technicians and mechanics provide professional servicing, repairs, engine overhauls and rebuilds, supported by genuine parts and expert after-sales support.

With a knowledgeable and hardworking local team behind us, Adaptalift Southwest is committed to providing reliable equipment, professional service and ongoing support to keep our customers’ businesses moving.
