A material handling apparatus attachment assembly 19 comprises a first component 20 configured to be coupled to forks 12 of a push around material lift 10; second and third components 30, each configured to be coupled to a side member 2c of a support frame 2 of a service module 1; and a coupler arrangement 22, 31 for connecting the first component to the second and third components. The coupler comprises a hook 22 and mounting pin 31 arrangement. The second and third components may comprise of a threaded stud (342, figures 9, 10) extending perpendicular to the base section that may further comprise a fastener assembly (1020, figures 9, 10). Methods of installing (figure 13) include the steps of installing the first component to the forks of a plurality of material lifts, attaching a plurality of second and third components to each end of a service module support frame, connecting the first component to the second and third components, moving the service module to an installation location and lifting the module into the desired position, and securing the service module to a support surface.
