Pulse Hire

Powered access and plant hire from Wakefield

Pulse Hire is a UK hire company specialising in powered access equipment and plant. Its catalogue covers scissor lifts, boom lifts, forklifts, material hoists, site storage units, skips, access equipment and telehandlers, aimed at contractors and site operators who need lifting and working-at-height machinery.

The company presents itself as operating UK wide and states a 0% turn-down policy on all orders, with no exceptions. It also describes a one-call resolution service, positioning a single point of contact as the way orders are handled.

Equipment available for hire

• Scissor lifts: described as offering simple controls and functionality, with bi-fuel, diesel and electric options listed.
• Boom lifts: presented as suited to "up and over" reach, also with bi-fuel, diesel and electric variants.
• Forklifts: available for short and long term rental.
• Material hoists: wind-up lifts through to gas powered units.
• Site storage: from small stores to large welfare units.
• Skips: from 2 to 40 cubic yard capacity.
• Access equipment: from scaffold towers to podiums.
• Telehandlers: a range covering 6M to 25M+.

The site also lists push around lifts and personnel lifts within its hire navigation, alongside machine sales as a separate line of activity.

How the hire service is presented

Pulse Hire emphasises speed and coordination: equipment can be supplied same day, next day or whenever required, and the company states that a single call is enough for it to take over the arrangement. Where a customer needs both a scissor lift and a forklift, it notes that both can be supplied together under one combined transport cost.

Each customer is assigned a dedicated account manager, whose role is described as finding the best solution for the requirement. The company also highlights that hire is contract free, with repeat business attributed to the quality of service rather than to tied agreements. Its team is stated to have over 30 years of experience.

Account, training and supply chain

Beyond equipment hire, the site references a credit account facility that customers can open, a training section, a supply chain area, vacancies and machine sales. A set of corporate policies is published, covering environmental, quality and health and safety matters, along with terms and conditions and hire insurance. The presence of an ISO 9001:2015 graphic on the site is consistent with the quality policy section.
