Excellent service! I was scheduled to train at 9 AM, staff was super friendly and professional, and the full session was completed within 3 hours by the dot. Great team of professionals to help you get certified! I highly recommend this company for training. I see how they have 5/5 star ratings now. Quick and effective with communication, precise on the dot with time, and awesome staff. The training process is simple and efficient. They even allow you to come back for extra training time on the forklifts for a very small fee each time. Very much worth the investment!

Trey and Robin were very professional! I would recommend Olympic to anyone looking to acquire the skills necessary to operate a forklift and receive license and certification. I have never touched a forklift before and I learned multiple forklifts in under an hour. Thanks Guys!

This is a great company to get your Forklift Training and License. The Trainers are very knowledgeable and experienced. They help teach you that right way to drive the forklifts. I recommend that you come here for your license. Its the best place by far to go to. Thank guys!

Trey and Alec are courtesy and are providing simple instructions that even a caveman can follow! I most definitely am not mechanically inclined but they make me feel comfortable in my ability to do this.

This my honest review nobody paid me to say this. First of Id like to thank OCTI for giving me the opportunity to achieve some Ive never done. Im going to give my likes and dislikes about my experience. First when I enter the light skin which direction is greeted me with a warm welcome, she was fun friendly and productive from start to finish. The owner/written test giver he was a inspiration to me. When I seen this guy he look like he was in a bad car accident, yet he still was multi tasking making sure everyone was in position. That moment I was motivated to learn all I could & was determined not to leave empty handed. Far as the forklift trainers go. It was 3 guys, first guy with the braids he seemed uninterested, mostly on his phone, his business etiquette was nonexistent & running to car for long periods of time during our training. Not sure if he was having a bad day but he just came off unengaged the entire time. He might have been a fillin trainer so who knows. Now the next two was a slim dark skin bald-headed and a light skin guy. Both of these brothers came to work should up & should out. My hat goes off to them both, the light skin guy going to take time with you no rush making sure you get it. The dark skin bald guy he stayed with me after class just so I could feel comfortable. About time I left I knew everything I needed to know. This place has a bright future ahead overall they get 5stars. If you are new like I was and want your forklift license or just training this the place you go! Dont wait dont pick up the phone and call now! You wont regret it!

Mr. Patrick Carter, is an awesome trainer. I went through training with him today and was very nervous as I have never operated a forklift. He walked side by side with me and made sure that I was comfortable. I’ve never seen a trainer with his passion. Whom went above and beyond to ensure I understood as well as was confident in what I was doing. This guy is awesome! And definitely needs to be cloned!! P.S don’t forget to hunk your horn!!
