Greetngs all. I am relocating to Perth in September and owned a forklift company for 14 years in South Africa. I am thinking to bring over all my tools and equipment and was wondering if companies that employ over there prefer air or electric tools for their field service teams. If so would it be adviceable for me to bring own compressor air tools and generator as here we mostly use 220V equipment.
Kind regards
