“We chose to partner with Burns through recommendation of a new employee years ago. It was definitely the right decision as over the years I have ALSO recommended Burns to some of my friends and colleagues. Burns has supplied and maintained all of our material handling equipment and more recently, was our primary vendor moving into a new facility for multiple facets. Looking forward to future years of good partnerships.”

“The Burns team conveys transparency and stellar communication when working through even the most challenging situations. During our purchasing stages there were no pressured sales, when the service technicians arrive, they listen to your needs and communicate through each step of the repair. Let’s not forget the rental department, if it is not on hand, somehow they find the equipment you need!”
