Machinery Assessments (FOC)
Machinery Assessments (FOC) in Ireland
Our Machinery Assessments (FOC) provide a clear, professional evaluation of balers, compactors, and waste-handling machinery across Ireland. This Free of Charge Machinery Assessment is designed to identify safety issues, performance concerns, and early-stage faults before they lead to breakdowns or costly downtime.
The assessment is practical, unbiased, and focused on helping you understand the true condition of your machinery. There is no sales pressure and no obligation to proceed with repairs, servicing, or upgrades.
A Free Machinery Assessment involves an on-site inspection carried out by an experienced service engineer with extensive hands-on knowledge of balers and compactors used in real operating environments.
The purpose of the assessment is to determine whether your machinery is operating safely, efficiently, and reliably for its current workload. We focus on identifying issues that affect uptime, safety, compliance, and long-term operating costs.
This service is suitable for vertical balers, horizontal balers, compactors, and associated waste-handling equipment.
Each Machinery Assessment follows a structured, methodical approach. The inspection focuses on the areas most likely to cause failures, safety risks, or unnecessary wear if left unaddressed.
We assess the mechanical condition of the machine, hydraulic performance, electrical systems, control functions, and safety devices. We also review operational efficiency, signs of misuse or overloading, and general suitability of the machine for current waste volumes.
Where issues are identified, they are explained clearly, with context around urgency and risk.
A Machinery Assessment is recommended if you operate balers or compactors that have not been reviewed recently, are experiencing recurring faults, or are showing signs of reduced performance.
This service is also valuable if you have taken over a site with existing equipment, are unsure whether repairs are worthwhile, or want reassurance that your machinery is safe and fit for continued use.
Assessments can be carried out for a single machine or multiple units on the same site.
The purpose of a Machinery Assessment is not to sell new equipment. Our focus is on extending the working life of existing balers and compactors wherever it is safe and practical to do so.
If a machine can be repaired, adjusted, or maintained cost-effectively, that recommendation will be made. If the assessment identifies safety risks or reliability concerns that make continued operation unsuitable, those findings are explained clearly so you can make an informed decision.
This approach ensures you receive practical guidance based on condition, not sales targets.
We provide Machinery Assessments throughout Dublin, Leinster, and the rest of Ireland.
For customers located in Leinster, assessments are typically scheduled within 24 hours. Outside Leinster, nationwide coverage is available, with response times generally within 48 hours depending on location and scheduling.
Assessment availability and timelines are always communicated clearly in advance.
After the Machinery Assessment, you receive a clear summary of findings and recommended actions, if any. This may include safety concerns, preventative maintenance suggestions, repair priorities, or upgrade options where appropriate.
There is no obligation to proceed with any work following the assessment. You remain fully in control of how, when, or if any recommendations are actioned.
