Any time that I have dealt with the team at McIntyre it has been a great experience. They are knowledgeable, safe and have very quick response times. Recently I needed a lift done in our yard. Kelly arrived on time, she is professional, courteous and safe. She is a great operator and I look forward to working with her again.

Lots of great things to say about these guys! They had what we needed when we needed it and the operator we had was more than happy to work 12-14hr days with us when the demand called for it. I'd happily recommend McIntyre to anyone and will use them again in the future!
