About GAP Group Limited

GAP Hire Solutions is the UK’s largest independent equipment rental company, hiring out an extensive range of equipment to industries including construction, utilities, civil engineering and events.

GAP’s ten divisions comprise Plant Hire, Tool Hire, Lifting & TIC, Non-Mechanical, Trenching & Shoring, Survey & Safety Hire, Pump Services, Welfare Services, Tanker Services & Event Services.

Additionally, through their GAP one facility, a specialised team offers bespoke managed services suited to individual customer needs.

GAP was established in 1969 by Gordon Anderson and the company is still family-owned and run by his sons Douglas and Iain. GAP’s aim is simple – to make our customers lives easier by providing market-leading equipment and exceptional service.
