HSS Hire, one of the United Kingdom’s largest tool and equipment rental companies, is opening two specialist supercenters this month, in the cities of Leeds and Bootle. The openings cap off an expansion for the Manchester, U.K.-based company, having recently launched supercenters in Manchester, Solihull and Beckton, as well as premier centers in Glasgow, Inverness, Dublin and High Wycombe.

With extended 24-hour opening times, the supercenters and premier centers support a hub of other rental centers in each region, carrying an extended range of HSS equipment, including powered access, safety and protection gear, specialist welding apparatus and surveying equipment, as well as consumables and work-wear retail stock.

“HSS continues to find improved ways of servicing both our existing and new customer base,” said David Downie, branch director. “The new stores are specifically designed to meet the needs of both groups and the supercenters at Leeds and Bootle reflect the fact that there is a strong demand for an experienced tool hire company with specialist capabilities to supply the respective regions. Whether we’re offering 24-hour opening, specialist equipment for hire or state-of-the-art training facilities, our customers know they can rely on us to provide them with what they need, when and where they need it.”

The Leeds store is more than 25,000 square feet and the Bootle store is 20,000 square feet. HSS Hire has more than 250 locations.
