The team at Hireace Christchurch…

The team at Hireace Christchurch Airport are a friendly helpful bunch. They're always busy but make every effort to make sure all their customers are happy and being seen to. We turned up looking for a quite for a flat bed hire, and the team were so attentive to our needs we ended up renting one that day, then again the following week for moving house. A lovely bunch, highly recommend.

Fantastic service

Fantastic service, staff had everything ready and explained everything very well. Truck was a great size for the job I needed it for and was clean and tidy (and ran well).
On returning the truck, the drop off experience was fantastic service again, met by a staff member as soon as truck turned off, odometer was read and fuel checked then the account was settled up, it was all done in around 2 minutes. Highly recommend Hireace

Hireace to the rescue.

The Thursday before Christmas I was let down by a supplier who had promised pre-Christmas delivery and then couldn't do it so I contacted Silverdale Hireace online and booked a van. I was expecting this to be difficult at that time but within 30 minutes I had a confirmed booking at a very reasonable price for the next day. When I went to collect the vehicle it took about 5 minutes to complete the formalities with the very helpful and friendly staff. The van was clean and in good condition. The return was just as quick and efficient.

The person who dealt with us when we picked the truck up was so accommodating. The original truck hired was too small, so he let us have another truck at the same expense. Sorry I didn't get his name but he deserves a promotion!

Same same....just blim'n excellent!

I've used Hireace a few times now for our annual golf trip and once again this year, the hire was easy and went without issue. The check-in was organised and quick and in fact the gent who handled me was awesome. Professional and efficient but fun at the same time. The van was exactly as advertised, unlike another company I used to use. We'll be back for sure - I don't bother going anywhere else now.

The Right Truck at the Right Price

The Right Truck, the right price, friendly helpful staff - What more could you ask for!
The truck was in good condition and drove over 900km in one week with no dramas (all the way up to Kaitaia and back on sun standard roads!).
