Reliable Power When You Need It Most

When the power goes out or a project demands a reliable temporary supply, the cost of being unprepared is high. At Loadgen, we have spent over two decades helping businesses, events, and critical infrastructure across the UK stay powered – safely, efficiently, and without interruption.

Whether you are planning an event or dealing with an unexpected power outage, having a reliable source of temporary power can make all the difference. That’s where our generator hire services come in! We are Loadgen, and we bring years of experience to the table. Our commitment to integrity, common sense and honesty has made us one of the most highly regarded providers of generators for hire.

A Complete, Managed Service

Generator hire from Loadgen is never just a drop-and-go. Every hire includes:

• Commissioning and full load testing before handover

Our Own In-House Fleet & Transport

Unlike brokers who sub-contract to third parties, we own and maintain our fleet. Every generator leaves our facility fully serviced, load-tested, and ready for operation. Our dedicated transport team operates flatbed, craned, and towable vehicles, enabling delivery into restricted sites, rooftops, basements, and rural locations across the UK.

Our Generator to Hire Experience

Our team members have backgrounds in power engineering, site management, and critical facilities – not just logistics. This means the advice you receive is grounded in real-world technical knowledge.

Our experience comes from working with clients in a wide range of sectors, with each one posing its own unique challenges. We mainly supply generator hire services to:

• Data Centres
• Banking & Finance
• Telecommunications Providers
• Hospitals
• Fire Stations
• Airports
• Events Providers

We have an impressive range for you to take your pick from, so it has never been easier to hire a generator that perfectly meets your needs. Not sure which model is the right one for you? Don’t worry, as we are here to provide support and guidance at every stage. Just tell us about your power needs, and then we will be able to point you in the right direction.
