HSS HIRE

HSS Hire is the UK's original tool and equipment hire company. We've been around since 1957, when Bert Taylor lent his sister a ladder and decided it could be a good business opportunity......seems he was right! Today, we work with big businesses, trade and DIY customers alike but over 90% of HSS turnover is actually from business to business activity. HSS has an established nationwide network of over 250 locations including a number of massive supercenters with extended opening hours. We ha... ve an extensive range of tools, equipment, plant and specialist kit that is robust, well-maintained and always ready to use, delivered by a knowledgeable team of technical and safety experts. The core business is still the hire of quality tools and equipment but, as we’ve grown, there's now much more to it than that too. We've introduced a clever range of services, support programs and business propositions to help make life easier and make sure we offer our customers the very best in the industry. We run a dedicated training business to ensure customers have the technical know-how they need to use our equipment safely. Our OneCall service means we can source almost anything, anywhere in the world whilst our HSS Resource partnership means we can even help with the hire of labor. We offer full managed equipment plans through HSS Outsource, a back-of-van equipment exchange program with HSS Pit Stop and a ‘have your own HSS branch’ option with HSS Onsite. And we do all this with a real commitment to the well being of our customers, our local communities and the environment. We are accredited to recognized standards; we offer discounted hire rates to all registered charities and we encourage our entire business to get involved in our community volunteering program. But more than anything, HSS is about people. We recruit the best people and we work hard to make sure they’re happy so that they want to stay with us. Training, communication and recognition are key features of our positive and inclusive workplace and there’s a great team ethos. HSS Hire is ISO9000, ISO14001, OHSAS18001 and SAFE-Hire certified. We hold Investors in People status and are currently the only tool and equipment hire company with a 4 star British Safety Council award. We were also the Hire Association Europe’s Hire Company of the Year and Contract Journal’s Plant Hire Company of the Year in 2009.More
