About us

About Us

Cross Rental Services has experienced substantial growth and expansion since it was established in 2017. Our journey is closely tied to the beginnings of two reputable companies: Acclimatise and All Seasons Hire. These two companies laid the groundwork for the evolution of Cross Rental Services into the forward-thinking and versatile organisation it is today.

Currently, we boast a strong presence with nine sites in strategic locations that span the UK and Europe. Our network of sites has been reinforced by the establishment of regional and expanded depots in key years such as 2011, 2015, 2016, and 2023. These strategic locations have played a pivotal role in extending our reach and ensuring close proximity to our esteemed clients.

Our growth trajectory and success story are a testament to our steadfast dedication to delivering excellence and outstanding service.
