Speedy Services

Speedy Hire Plc, trading as Speedy Services, is a scaffolding and access hire company based in Oxford. The company has 45 years of customer service experience. It operates Click & Collect from over 200 stores and offers a 4 hour delivery and collection promise. Over 3500 product lines are available for hire.

Speedy Hire provides training courses including access training, powered access training, crane operations and lifting, power tools, fire, first aid, health, safety & environment, forklift truck (ITSSAR), plant operator, confined space and asbestos training. The company offers tool hire, equipment hire and plant hire.

Oxford customers of this equipment hire branch frequently highlight the helpfulness and speed of the team. Several reviewers recall being loaded quickly as couriers and describe the staff as extremely fast, reliable and welcoming. A recurring theme is the willingness to explain unfamiliar machinery: one customer who took on a home project after being let down elsewhere notes that the team talked through everything, answered questions by phone and even helped carry the equipment to the car.

Polite and helpful service comes up repeatedly, including when a requested item was not in stock and the staff still tried to source it. Alongside this praise, a number of reviewers report serious problems. Two accounts describe being let down by deliveries that did not arrive, with one order placed a week in advance failing to materialise and communication said to be lacking.

Another customer disputes a charge for a missing screw on a returned machine, arguing it was working perfectly. A further remark suggests the offering did not match expectations. For plant and machinery hire, tool supply and building equipment in the Oxford area, the feedback is therefore mixed: friendly, knowledgeable assistance and quick turnaround sit alongside complaints about reliability, communication and unexpected charges.
