The hire of the Brushcutter was delivered ok and with a fault on it was soon rectified. . . BUT it was getting collected was the problem it sat around for over a week ( not that l needed to use it anywhere else or longer ) with chase up phone calls as well it became a bit of an eyesore lying around the place and in some way made me feel more conscious of anybody taking it in which if it was collected the following day of hire l wouldn’t have to have felt that way !

Good service and value

Great website, easy to arrange what I needed, and very competive price compared to the competition. 110% to the guys on collection and delivery - couldn't have been more helpful and flexible. Unfortunately the office fouled up and only sent 1 access tower when I'd ordered 2, but rectified same day so didn't hold us back much. Will certainly use again.
