HSS ProService and Cross Rental Services Extend HVAC Hire Partnership

HSS ProService Marketplace and Cross Rental Services sign a four-year agreement to maintain national HVAC and refrigeration hire across the UK.

HSS ProService and Cross Rental Services Extend HVAC Hire Partnership

Four-Year Extension for UK HVAC Hire Network

HSS ProService Marketplace and Cross Rental Services have renewed their commercial partnership, signing a new four-year agreement to supply heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC), and refrigeration equipment across the UK. The deal extends a long-standing arrangement between the rental marketplace and the specialist climate control operator.

Under the terms of the contract, HSS ProService commercial customers will retain direct access to Cross Rental Services' fleet of industrial and commercial climate control units. The agreement covers both short-term emergency equipment hire and longer-term planned project support, backed by tailored engineering and technical assistance.

Strategic Scope and Equipment Availability

The partnership combines the digital procurement reach of the HSS ProService platform with Cross Rental Services' physical fleet assets and specialist engineering workforce. This setup aims to streamline equipment sourcing for facilities managers, mechanical contractors, and climate control specialists operating nationwide.

By securing a multi-year fleet commitment, both companies are looking to maintain supply stability across high-demand periods, such as summer cooling peaks and winter heating surges, where rapid deployment of large-scale environmental control equipment is required on commercial sites.

What does this mean for a UK tradesperson or DIYer actually buying this kit?

For independent sole traders and domestic installers, this corporate agreement will not alter everyday counter prices at local hire branches or trade counters like Screwfix and Toolstation. However, for commercial plumbing, heating, and air conditioning contractors managing larger site setups, the four-year deal provides predictable access to heavy-duty HVAC kit through a single vendor marketplace. Tradespeople taking on sub-contract work for larger commercial builds should expect consistent availability for specialized boilers, chillers, and large dehumidifiers, though they should continue to compare direct hire rates from independent local specialist depots against marketplace platform pricing before committing to long hire periods.
