Options Great Hire

Part of the Options Group, founded 40 years ago, Options Greathire combines decades of expertise in tableware and furniture hire. Together, they bring a unique, high-end design offering to the UK events industry, with a strong presence in London and beyond.

Renowned for their stylish, premium-quality inventory, Options Greathire supports a wide range of events, from intimate gatherings to large-scale corporate functions.

As with many companies in the events sector, efficient logistics are key to success. Options Greathire relies on a dedicated fleet of vans to ensure timely and secure transportation of equipment and materials. This mobility enhances operational flexibility, enabling the company to meet tight schedules and deliver exceptional service every time.

Herd Group has supplied 11 Luton box vans to Options Greathire on a long-term rental agreement. These vans, equipped with tail lifts, offer the ideal solution for transporting bulky items such as furniture, decorations, and catering supplies — enabling efficient, single-trip deliveries and supporting cost-effective operations.

As part of their ongoing fleet optimisation, Options Greathire have most recently signed up to Herd Connect, Herd's intelligent fleet management solution. This service forms part of Herd Synergy, the Group's comprehensive 'cradle to grave' mobility offering, designed to support businesses throughout the entire vehicle lifecycle.

Herd Connect takes care of a broad range of services including vehicle acquisition, service and maintenance (SMR), repairs and driver management through to de-fleet, refurb and disposal. The cost effective fleet solutions minimise costly vehicle off road (VOR) downtime, so businesses can focus on what they do best: growing the company and looking after customers.
