This is the worst company ever

This is the worst company ever; they're thieves. I wanted to rent a ladder. They canceled three times, and the last time they made me wait for three hours at the front door and never showed up. After all that waiting, they sent me a message saying they canceled because they couldn't find anyone home. My front door was open the whole time. They have no shame. And now they refuse to refund my money; they're scammers.

Took my order and payment and then on the day of delivery messaged to say they could fulfil the order leaving me with trades and tools onsite and no platform. No apology either and now waiting for a refund. I wish I had looked on TrustPilot before ordering. Fortunately South West Sales and Hire in Plymouth were incredible and sorted me with an alternative and even dropped it to site there and then!!!! That’s what you call customer service.

All Good

Made my order then read the reviews and thought I was in for a disaster. But I wasn't. My hire turned up on time and was collected without issue on the day my hire finished.

Yes Mammoth or National Toor Hire are middlemen - my order was actually fulfilled by Speedy - but it all worked out fine for me.

Couldn’t deliver item on requested and stated available dates, website needs to be linked to what is actually available not just take your money and then let you down. Time is the biggest cost for the customer in this scenario. Be upfront don’t over promise and under deliver

Sanding machine hire

Booked and paid about £160 to hire a floor sander for the next day having struggled with HSS availability. Receipt sent with instructions stating delivery next day between 07:30 - 5:00 next day, large window but was expecting this to be narrowed down AM on the delivery day.

Stayed at home till 9:30, no update so rang. Promised a call back but phone forthcoming, three more calls later and still no further forward.

Finally at about 12 I managed to get hold of someone who could help. There was no availability booked for the sander and they were throng their “4000” depots to source one…

…Them told that unlikely to get one for the booked day but someone would call me to offer me an alternative day.

So, what’s the point in booking something for a specific day when they haven’t got availability? The only conclusion you can draw is that they are a middle man just taking your payment and then trying to fulfill it.’

A bit crap if you ask me. Refund requested.

Disgusting company

Disgusting company. Kelly was useless and had no idea what she was doing . My rental never turned up and then I had to chase to find out they had got the dates wrong as well as them not having drivers . Joke of a company. Useless . Avoid like the plague

Scam avoid !!!

I can only advise people to avoid this company communicating is none existent numerous phone numbers are out of service . Mammoth are a glorified middle man that don't actually hold any stock they simply take your order and then try and find another hire company that has your item ! I was told by mammoth that my item was with a local firm when I contacted the local firm they said they had never had any dealings with mammoth and that it sounded like fraud

Not keeping to the time slot

Not keeping to the time slot, I had to get onto the provider to see where the scaffold tower was, I was told that you put it on hold because they never had a two man tower, never bothered to tell me so I had to cancel the electrician because it was for a gallery light, I ended up with a one man tower not a two man which I paid for. Brandon hire would get a five star for me for helping me out

Don't hire from this company.

I hired scaffolding. It has not arrived and there is no one to speak to about this. When I booked the equipment I was informed it was available, I paid in full and took time off work to receive and and set it up. On the day of delivery I got an email late in the morning saying it wasn't actually available so it wouldn't be delivered after all. I am still waiting for a follow up? delivery? I have no idea what is going on. I cannot call anyone, they have no contact number, I cannot cancel the order. I think it may be a scam.

Let down on delivery day!

Order placed day before needed and I received an email the next day saying stock was low and you couldn’t fulfil the order. Complete waste of time and let me down at the last minute. Maybe your stock levels should be linked to your website so people can see if you actually have what your advertising!

Easy to book online

Easy to book online. Only hiccup was not noticing an email sent by support early on the morning of hire offering alternatives and then not being able to get through when trying to contact them to confirm my choice would be delivered. However, leaving a request for a call back and being called by a really helpful customer service advisor sorted it out for me. From then on I had no problems. The ladder was delivered by a very helpful driver and he also picked it up when finished. Very pleased.
