This is the place you go to when you need to hire tools, such as carpet/upholstery cleaners, gardening tools of any kind, painting tools, etc. Pretty much anything that you won't ever use again or only every once in a while.
They have several branches around London, but this location was the closest to my house. I rented a carpet cleaning machine for the May Bank Holiday weekend, which was great as I only paid for a one day-rental, but actually had the tool for 3 days.
I suggest you book online, as they offer various discounts there. One of the clerks will then contact you and confirm your booking. The pick-up and drop-off is easy, although there's a bit of paperwork to fill out. (They need, for example two documents of identification: ID card and utility bill showing your address.)
All in all, it's a useful service. read more
