TESTIMONIAL
How Big Joe Integrated Lithium-Ion Forklifts Transformed a California 3PL’s Operation
Legacy Drayage Inc. moves freight through some of the toughest, most fast‑moving conditions in California. Containers come in fast, schedules move even faster, and the work never stops. For years, their propane forklifts forced them to slow down with tank swaps, breakdowns, noise, fumes, and maintenance headaches that cost them time and money.
