A decent hatchback for the price

The car I got was a small hatchback with a manual gearbox, which is what I wanted for the trip. I've hired a lot of cars over the years so I know what to look for, and this one had decent tyres and a clean interior. The collection went smoothly and the paperwork was done quickly. Fuel was a full to full arrangement, which I like. Good value and I'd happily use them again.

collection was the easy bit

The collection was the first thing I noticed because the car was ready and the staff were quick. Booking on the site was simple. Only thing I'd flag is that the return time felt tight, but they were fine about it.

First time hiring, bit of a wait

First time I've ever hired a car so I wasn't sure what to expect. The booking form was clear enough but the confirmation email took nearly a day to arrive, which was a bit worrying when I was travelling the next morning. The car itself was fine once I got it.

Needed a car while mine was booked in

My car was booked in for a service so I needed something for a fortnight. I've hired from them a few times over the years, so I knew the process. Booking was quick and the car was fine. The insurance excess was higher than I remembered, which was a bit annoying.

best price i found for a short trip

Went with them for a long weekend in a small car and the price was the lowest I could find that week. Booking was quick on the site and the car was fine for what I needed.

good value if you're flexible

Four days in a small hatchback for less than I expected. Pick up was at a depot a bit out of town so you need a lift or a taxi there. Once you're sorted it's good value and the car ran well.

collection desk was a nightmare

Queue at the desk was about forty minutes and nobody told us why. The car was fine but the paperwork kept getting mixed up and I had to chase the booking twice on the app. Sent a message and didn't hear back till the next day.

booked a car for a last minute trip

I needed a car for a last minute trip to see my parents in Yorkshire, and I was short on time with work. Booking on the site took about five minutes and I had confirmation straight away. The car was waiting at the depot when I arrived and the staff checked me in quickly. Clean car, full tank, nothing else to say really. Really helpful when plans change.

Booked the one way hire again

I've used their one way hire for my sister's move between Leeds and Bristol three times now. The car was spotless each time and the drop off was straightforward. Good value for what you get, and they never hold you up.

Needed a car for a funeral week

We needed a car for a week while our own was in the garage after a bump, and I've been using Orbit for years now so I just went straight to the site. Booking took a few minutes, the car was clean and the pick up was quick. Only niggle was the fuel policy being a bit fussy, but otherwise no complaints.

Needed a van for a weekend move

We needed a van to shift a sofa and some boxes across town at short notice. I compared two other firms first and this was the only one with a van free that weekend. Booking was quick and the van was clean with a full tank. Great help with the move.

Good call, cars ready

Booked it Thursday for the Saturday, pick up was smooth and the car was ready when I got there. Price was fair compared to the others I checked. Just grabbed the keys and went, no fuss.

Cheaper but wait at the desk

Compared with the big firms this was cheaper, which is why I went with them. The collection took a while because the desk was busy and I waited about twenty minutes. Car was fine once I had it, so it balanced out.

got a car for my driving test

I got a small automatic for my practical test and it was spotless when I picked it up. The booking page made it easy to pick a time that suited my test centre. Handover was on time and the car drove really smoothly. Got a pass, so thanks.

Cheaper than the big names

I'd had a look at the main rental firms at the airport first and this was noticeably cheaper for the same few days. Booking was simple and the car turned up at the agreed time. The collection was a little slow because there was only one person on the counter, but it wasn't a big deal.

better value than the others

Compared with the other firms I looked at, this was the best value for a week away. The price on the site matched what I paid at the desk. The car was good and I'd use them again.

way better than the airport lot

Compared to the big firms at the airport this was miles better, no upsell pressure at the counter and the car was just sitting there ready. Pick up was quick and the car was clean. Would book again tbh, easy.

Fine but the deposit surprised me

The deposit taken on my card was a lot higher than the other quotes I'd seen, and it took a while to come back. The car itself was fine and the handover was on time. Just be ready for that if you're comparing.

Really good for a quick weekend

Honestly it was great for what I needed, a car for two nights to go and see friends in Brighton. Booking took about five minutes on my phone and the car was tidy and had a full tank. No complaints at all, I'd use them again for sure.

A car for my daughter's wedding

I hired a larger car for my daughter's wedding weekend, and I did want to say that it was very well kept when I collected it. The booking process was clear, although I did have to ring them to confirm one detail. The handover was on time and the car was spotless for the photographs. It was a little dearer than I'd hoped.
