Disappointed

I hired a dozen pieces of plant and machinery from North Side Rentals for a project, but unfortunately, the experience was far from satisfactory. Although they were quite prompt with their delivery, the equipment they mobilized to the worksite was faulty, breaking down repeatedly and causing delays in our project. When I contacted them for repairs, their response time was disappointingly slow, further impacting our progress. To make matters worse, they tried to charge me for the malfunctioning equipment, despite it being unreliable and prone to breaking down again. Overall, I cannot recommend North Side Rentals due to the poor quality of their machinery and lack of responsive customer service.

Great customer service.

Great customer service.
Fantastic value for money.
The booking process is a bit complex (time consuming) but that is the only negative.

Great staff fantastic customer service

I have been a customer of Northside Rentals Airport branch for about 3 years. The staff are always friendly and helpful. In my experience they always go the extra mile to assist. That's why they are my choice for car rental for now and into the future.
Thanks guys and see you soon.

"Unsafe and Poorly Maintained Vehicle – A Risky Experience"

We rented a 12-seater, but when we arrived for pickup, the company realized they had double-booked the vehicle. After a delay, they gave us a 12-seater LDV with 66K kilometers on it. The car was in poor condition—filthy inside and out, with dirty windshields, dashboard, and side mirrors. Despite this, we had no choice but to accept it as there were no alternatives, and our trip was already planned.

What was more concerning was the safety of the vehicle. The brakes were noticeably poor, and the last service had been done over 30K kilometers ago. Driving over 2,000 kilometers from Perth to Monkey Mia, we were constantly worried about the car breaking down. Although we made it through without incident, it felt extremely risky and irresponsible of the company to provide a vehicle in such unsafe condition. This could have easily led to a serious issue on the road.

Not fancy but got me there and back!

I was heading up to the Murchison and wanted a reliable 4x4. Northside provided this - ex mine site vehicle but drove well with good economy. Not fancy but did the job. Good service and pricing.

Stress-free Hire

Thanks Guys! The epitome of hassle free, honest, organised, cost-effective car hire. I’ve been using NR in Greenwood for years. Very friendly staff. For my most recent hire I was very disorganised, had just lost my wallet, and had to postpone my vehicle return twice at very short notice. Nothing was any bother for this great team. Stress-free! Will continue to use and recommend to everyone.

I’ve been f@cked over hard by other hire vehicle mobs with their sneaky tactics, however I’ve alwaysed been treated well and made to make it feel as they’re putting one of the own kids in the car🚐

the employees have always reminded me to take photos aswell, purely for a triple back up.

Keep up the great work and see ya next time🤙🏽🤙🏽
