Rapid Response
Sometimes unexpected things happen. Fortunately we have decades of experience helping our customers get out of tight situations and we’ve learned that the best way to overcome a problem is to solve it fast. That’s why at United Rentals we offer Rapid Response Services.
Rapid Response entails being accessible by phone at any hour, ensuring readiness to swiftly mobilise and provide equipment before situations escalate. Alternatively, we offer assistance in preparing for emergencies through the development of a comprehensive Business Continuity Plan by a specialist from United Rentals.
