About Us

Chief Rentals was founded in 1994 with a small loan from The Princes Trust. Initially a Car Rental business operating in Torbay, the business has grown significantly and now comprises two separate but interconnected Strategic Business Units - a Vehicle Rentals division and an Accident Replacement Vehicles division.

The company is a member of the British Vehicle Rental & Leasing Association and a United Rentals System licensee. The Vehicle Rentals division currently operates from two locations and there are plans to grow geographic spread in the next few years.

The Accident Replacement Vehicles division provides accident replacement vehicles to victims of Road Traffic Accidents. The division has exceptional strength and expertise in the taxi sector and is now the largest supplier of accident replacement taxis in Great Britain.

The United Rental System is a network of the 300 highest quality independent vehicle rental companies in the UK. Launched in April 1991 it has become "Britain's best local operators in Britain's biggest national network." United Rental System licensees are able to offer all of the benefits of the national vehicle rentals companies, often at much lower costs.
As one of the UK's leading independent vehicle rental companies, Chief Rentals is proud to be a licensee of the United Rentals System.
