The maxhire story

about us

Our fledgling company started from a unit on the Airport Industrial Estate Newcastle in 1986. It was not long before companies like Makita saw the potential and allowed Max to take on an agency. Within a short space of time, other agencies like Honda, Victa, and Mountfield were acquired. Due to the high demand for servicing and repairs specialist sharpening equipment was leased and the company started to expand rapidly.

In 1990 Mini Excavators and dumpers were being imported into the UK and an opportunity arose for Maxhire to hire this equipment to local authorities, builders, and homeowners. This lead to an increase in business and enabled the company to relocate.

Maxhire has grown into a successful local business with an experienced and dedicated team who can provide a first-class service to local businesses and domestic users.

testimonials

Graham Carter,

"For more than 10 years I have used Maxhire to hire tools that I don’t own. The range of items I have used is staggering, anything from a mini JCB, a turf lifter and even a ride-on lawnmower. More importantly, the knowledge of the staff regarding their stock is quite impressive. If I tell them what job I have to do then they can always advise the right tool for the job, help me calculate the length of time I need it and offer tips on how best to get the job done. It seems that nothing is too much trouble for them and the old adage ‘no job too big or to small’ certainly fits here. Quite simply, I wouldn’t go anywhere else."

“Despite the fact that I’m not an accomplished builder or landscaper I took on a significant project to transform my own garden. It took 6 months and I used Maxhire for all of the heavy equipment. The service from Maxhire is fantastic. Max himself delivered the equipment to us, he was always interested in what we are planning and there to give friendly advice on which machines are most appropriate and how we best go about the work. He even put me in touch with people for soil etc.. You won’t meet a more enthusiastic and helpful person, I can’t recommend Maxhire enough.”

My experience of the hire of an excavator from Max Hire was excellent. On time delivery and good clear guidance on how to use it. The hire of a stump grinder and skilled operator proved the finishing touch to the transformation of the garden.
