About us
In brief, we are an event equipment hire company! We hire out everything needed to throw a big event, from the tiniest details to the vital items. We work with everyone from couples throwing their first big party, to companies taking part in multiple events every weekend.
YES Hire was started by current director Tom Lambert, and his brother Harry in 2013. In the early days, Tom and Harry did everything from delivering and customer care to doing all the post event washing by hand!
Since then, YES Hire has grown and we are now one of the biggest event hire companies in the North. Our range has extended to offer more catering and tableware options, plus we now hire furniture, heaters, dance floors, stages and more! We have a dedicated warehouse for our stock located near Thirsk and a six vehicle fleet to handle deliveries. And, importantly for Tom, we now have a commercial dishwasher!
Despite all this growth, YES Hire’s mission stays the same: to bring a comprehensive, customer-focused service that provides high-quality items. We aim to be a partner in bringing the visions you have for your event to life!
Who is YES Hire?
Small team, big results
Director Tom is backed up by a small team of permanent members of staff who handle YES Hire’s operations throughout the year. When our busy season comes around, this rises to a team of around 20!
Our office team is made up of industry experienced office staff! Headed by Sam, and ably assisted by Philippa, they are here every weekday to help with your enquiries by phone and email. We don’t use chat-bots or AI responses anywhere, so rest assured you are getting real help every time. We also have Rose who takes care of our marketing and business development behind the scenes.
Outside of the nice and warm office, manager Bartek is our man for day-to-day operations. He is supported by Aaron warehouse manager, and permanent driver Robbie, as well as Steven who takes care of all maintenance year round.
We take pride in delivering a quality service, built on over 12 years of experience in the industry. Speak to a member of our team today – we will do everything we can to help make your event a success!
But how does hiring with YES Hire actually work?
Once you’ve finalised your order, just read and sign our hire agreement we send over and your hire is confirmed. Need to make changes? Just let us know!
We don’t take deposits but we will send an invoice and payment link around 10 days before your event which we ask is paid in full before your delivery can take place. Pay via the link, or by BACS.
On delivery day (prearranged with you!), we will deliver everything right to where you need it. All tableware will be carried inside, your furniture set up as you require, and your kitchen items hooked up and tested. On collection day, we will come do the same in reverse – pick up the tableware boxes (filled with your dirty crockery, glasses and cutlery by you!) and pack away all your furniture and other accessories.
And that’s it! For more details on how event hire works, try our link below.
