Barford Hire & Sales was started back in 1986 when Wham split up, Freddie Starr ate a hamster and 30 million people tuned in to watch Dirty Den divorce Angie! With just a small stock of used commercial vehicles on display David Sorrell decided to hire some of them out whilst they were waiting to be sold!

Very easy to arrange hire and very accomodating to make sure you get the right vehicle for your needs. A great company - have used a number of times on rental and they always go out of their way to help. Fair prices and excellent service. Bought my van from barfords and couldn't be happier. They did more than agreed and the service was excellent.

Excellent service & Cost. We needed a van for 10 days and got a quote from every Norwich based Firm. Barford was the cheapest available so we booked. The service was excellent, the flexibility and helpful staff made a huge difference. The van was good and clean and ideal fit what we needed. Barford will now be our first port of call.

Honestly baffled as to the reviews of this place. Website is appalling to use and has conflicting information everywhere. No indication of actual availability on the website and no idea if booking is actually successful (they're happy to take card details for what is essentially an enquiry though). After 3 days trying to get it to work and having an email ignored finally rang to be told zero availability of any kind due to the "Christmas rush"? Whatever that means in October.

Fantastic from taking my phone call to dropping the van off etc. A real pleasure to meet people dedicated and knowledgeable within their profession as I thrive to be in mine. I have nothing but very positive things to say with Barford Van Hire & Sales and not just on the phone but also in person. If only everyone would do business like Barford Van Hire & Sales. I will be returning only to you guys in the future. Best Regards and Thanks Team Barford Van Hire & Sales :)

This is exactly why you should use a local family business. Great staff, great service, great Van's. I moved to the area from Cambridge and wanted to avoid the big, unfriendly corporate companies. Hired 2 Van's in a week without a hitch. Beautifully clean and easy to pick up and return, even after hours.
