Debt Recovery Services
Specialist Debt Recovery for Plant Hire Companies
Plant hire businesses face a unique risk: your capital-intensive equipment is generating revenue for the client while hire invoices go unpaid. The longer a debt remains outstanding, the more exposure you face — particularly where equipment is still on-site.
Hay's Collections provides specialist plant hire debt recovery across the UK. We recover unpaid hire fees for excavators, telehandlers, dumpers, rollers, and the full range of plant and machinery. We understand the plant hire sector's specific risks and move quickly.
Our 15% No Collection, No Commission model means zero upfront cost. Our 87% success rate means results.
In addition to our core No Collection, No Commission debt recovery service, we provide a comprehensive range of ancillary services — including debtor tracing, credit checks, legal escalation, statutory demands and enforcement support — ensuring your case receives the full specialist attention it deserves.
Common Problems
Debt Recovery Challenges in the Plant Hire Sector

Hire Rate Disputes
Agreed hire rates disputed post-hire by clients seeking to reduce their liability.
