HSS Hire

HSS Hire is a national supplier of tool and equipment hire and related services - we have provided complete equipment management and hire services to big businesses, trade and DIY customers for over 50 years. Focused on safety, availability, value and support, we work with our customers to help keep their businesses working safely and efficiently whilst driving down their costs.

Today, our nationwide network of over 250 Supercentres and branches and a UK-wide spine of logistical capability ensures easy access to our extensive range of tools and equipment. We will deal with you in the way you choose – by phone, text, online, through a dedicated account manager and through the branch and supercentre network.


Priding ourselves on being easy to transact with, HSS customers receive just one invoice and one contract. HSS deliver and collect the majority of tools and equipment on hire, but if a customer wants to pick up equipment from one of our centres and drop it off at another, they can do. Through our OneCall service, HSS Hire also offers to source anything that is not part of the standard range. It’s all about keeping businesses working.

We also operate a leading training company to ensure you and your workforces are always fully compliant and always safe.
