Reduce time spent on plant hire
to minutes

No! Our standard solutions are built for trade customers who spend between £20,000 and £500,000 per year on plant and equipment. We keep the T&C's simple by using standard Hire Association Europe terms without variation. We are so confident of our service that we do not ask our customers for exclusivity or a minimum cancellation period. Our customer retention is industry-leading because of the extra value we deliver.

We do not charge a service fee or monthly fee for our bespoke hire desk service. You pay the usual hire charges only: weekly hire costs; transport; fuel used etc. We also pass on the benefits of efficiencies made by working closely together at no additional cost.

Yes! Our normal working hours are 7.30am to 5.30pm Monday to Friday. However, we do support work activities, projects and events outside of these hours. Please talk to us and tell us about your requirement so we have the right phone, technical and operational support to match your needs. We will then document and share the agreed operational support plan to make sure it matches your requirements.

Definitely! The Hyra team have built some of the largest plant hire desks in the industry, two of which transact over £25m of hire every year. We support clients who have larger needs and wish to outsource or white label their plant hire and we deliver an extraordinary range of cost and value improvements. For these larger requirements we do request minimum contract terms. This is to ensure that our technology and staffing levels are appropriately matched to your requirements and we can robustly deliver and meet your expectations, however high.

Many of our customers hire on a long-term basis with us and find it an attractive alternative to CAPEX purchase. Tell us the type of machine you require and for what duration and we will give you a competitive quotation. Most machines hired on this basis are new or nearly new and come with industry-leading service support.

Typically our clients are in civil engineering, facilities management, events or construction. Construction sectors include: building, rail, highways, airports, marine, energy, water, and environmental infrastructure. We do not support private DIY enthusiasts or builders who trade as sole traders or partnerships.

The cost of plug-in hire varies depending on a variety of factors including the specification of the machine(s), the rental period and seasonality. A lot of small businesses overpay for plug-in hire because they only have time to contact a limited number of plant hire providers. Hyra is plugged into a huge network of plant hire suppliers across the UK, which means we can shop around for the best possible price. What’s more we also have the buying power to get hire rates normally reserved for very large construction businesses.
