Keeping up with the Plant & Hire Aid Alliance

This month’s Front Porch guest is Joan McKinlay from our UK office, who participated in the Plant & Hire Aid Alliance‘s recent convoy to Slovakia to provide equipment and supplies to Ukrainian refugees. Since the full episode won’t be shared until after the next Plant & Hire Aid Alliance event takes place, we wanted to share this  (slightly modified) segment from the interview to encourage people interested in helping her at the Wrapathon scheduled for 26-27 November to stop by and help in Ipswich. The people involved will play a big role in brightening the lives of people who could really use it after an incredibly difficult 2022. If you can’t make the Wrapathon but you’d like to help in other ways, you can get connected by signing up at the Alliance’s website: https://www.aid-alliance.com/ or by emailing [email protected].  

If you’d like to hear more about what’s happening throughout the hire (rental) industry, you can subscribe to Point of Rental on Apple PodcastsGoogle PodcastsSpotify, or Stitcher. If you’d have suggestions for someone in the industry to interview, let us know about it!

Stop Stocking So Many Parts!

We’ve all done it.   When I worked in the event industry, there was one year where people started asking about gold flatware. We jumped to stay ahead of the trend, purchasing over 1,000 pieces of gold place settings to match our existing gold-band plates. The fad never fully materialized,
