Running Event Vehicle Hire

We’ve been getting sporty… well giving the vehicles a decent workout that is! Read what Run Sandringham and Suffolk Trail Fest had to say about our vehicles and our level of service.

With events now taking place, we are once again delivering short-term hire electric utility vehicles left, right and centre. There’s been a particularly big calling for our vehicles to support running events this year. The two most recent have been Run Sandringham at the Royal Sandringham Estate in June and the Suffolk Trail Fest at Thetford Forest early July.

Our UTVs are the perfect addition to support any event organisers for set up, during the event and as part of the clear away team. For these events, we hired them several vehicles from the fleet including, UBCO 2×2 Work Bikes which were used by event photographers and organisers to get from A to B. Our 4×4 Electric Work Buggies were tasked with travelling around the venues to set up routes and signage for each of the organised races. We even loaned Run Sandringham The Beast to lead the runners around the course.

Run Sandringham’s Aaron Murrell says…

“We worked with Electric Wheels as one of our key event partners, at Run Sandringham in North Norfolk. Chris and his team have gone above and beyond in their support of our events. From diligent planning to determine which vehicles to use and when and where to use them; to providing excellent time keeping to ensure delivery for set event planning stages in the lead up to and on the actual event days.

The fact that all vehicles are electric was fantastic. They were so easy to use and drive and the battery life on each was incredible. Perfect for us on event days. What’s more, the whole team at Electric Wheels were brilliant to deal with personally. So friendly and supportive. For any event organiser, or someone considering purchasing or hiring a buggy from them, do not hesitate. I thoroughly recommend them to anyone and look forward to working with them again at our next event in September.”

Kelly Pepper from Suffolk Trail Fest, says…

“We strive to deliver an environmentally friendly running festival, so the electric buggies were absolutely perfect. We used them continuously throughout the 3-day festival and they were an absolute dream.

The hazard light feature was really useful and the fact they are silent meant we didn’t wake up the camp site whilst doing our site jobs. We used them for multiple jobs including getting volunteers to checkpoints, refilling water stations, putting out route and site signage and a multitude of general jobs.

Thank you Electric Wheels! You made our weekend so much easier!”

If you would like to enquire about hiring an electric utility vehicle for an event this year, we might still be able to squeeze you in. You’ll need to get in such ASAP though as availability is sparse!
