I have been operating a independent forklift repair business in the state of Georgia for a few years and the differences of the labor rates with my competitors always seemed to surprise me. I know it depends on the region, the size and what the company has to offer....I don't want to be to greedy, but at the same time. I would like to increase. Any information would be appreciated. What are the rates in your area? Thanks!
