Originally a division of Briggs Weaver, which Sammons acquired in 1952, Briggs Equipment became a separate Sammons company in 1996. Briggs Equipment has made a name for itself by offering its customers a full range of high-quality services and a "one-stop-shopping" opportunity.
Headquartered in Dallas, Texas, Briggs Equipment operates in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia and is a leading provider and renter of premium, materials handling equipment. The company is the number one provider of Yale-brand lift truck and fleet management services. Briggs represents a variety of other materials handling equipment manufacturers, such as Trackmobile rail car movers, Genie and Upright aerial work platforms, Ottawa truck trailer spotters, and Taylor heavy forklifts and container handling equipment. Offering full-service solutions to customers, Briggs supports its products with financing, safety training, a market-leading ($11,000,000) parts inventory and 24-hour-a-day, 7- day-a-week service programs. The company's 300 service technicians are situated at 15 locations, with 250 service vans in the field for quick response to customer needs.
Briggs also operates a Fleet Management Group that is trained to provide total fleet management and ownership, reducing costs for customers as much as 30% in large plants running 30 or more lift trucks.
