Maidstone-based Starline Coaches has enhanced its vehicle maintenance capabilities with the addition of cable-free mobile column lifts from Totalkare, a leading provider of heavy-duty workshop equipment.

The investment underscores Starline Coaches’ commitment to maintaining the highest standards of safety and reliability for its fleet of vehicles.

A dark grey Starline bus is elevated on four red hydraulic lifts in a well-lit garage, with a silver SUV parked beneath it and various tools and equipment visible on the left and in the background.

Starline Coaches operates a diverse fleet serving private hire, corporate travel, and school transport needs across Kent and beyond, including holiday travel across Europe.

The new mobile column lifts, each with a safe working load (SWL) of 7,500kg, can be configured in sets of four, six, or eight columns to accommodate a variety of vehicle sizes and weights. With radio-synchronised connectivity, the lifts eliminate the need for cumbersome cables, allowing for greater flexibility and ease of use within the workshop. Additional features, such as adjustable forks to suit a range of wheel diameters and the ability to manoeuvre the lifts effortlessly, make them a practical solution for modern maintenance operations.

Chris Roffey, Managing Director of Starline Coaches said:

We’re pleased to bring Totalkare’s mobile column lifts into our workshop. Their quality and functionality are excellent, and they’re already making a noticeable difference to our maintenance processes. The flexibility and ease of use mean we can work more efficiently and ensure our vehicles are back on the road promptly, delivering the levels of service our customers expect.

Totalkare’s Area Sales Manager, James Phare said:

Our cable-free mobile column lifts are designed to improve workshop efficiency and safety. The radio-synchronised operation eliminates tripping hazards, while the adjustable forks make them versatile enough to handle a wide range of vehicles. We’re happy to support Starline Coaches in maintaining their fleet with reliable, user-friendly equipment.

Totalkare, with decades of experience in providing lifting and testing solutions, continues to support businesses across the UK with equipment that combines durability, efficiency, and ease of use. The partnership with Starline Coaches reflects Totalkare’s commitment to helping customers optimise their workshop operations.
