Rude staff, extremely arrogant and unprofessional. People would be much better served going to a more reputable company with better customer service.

Discussed on the phone where I was going. Unhappy about the milage on return, then starts searing at me.
Mistakes happen don't take it out on the customer then start adding costs because you made a mistake. Will not use again

The van itself was clean, pretty brand new. The rest of my experience was a shambles. I had to wait 40 minutes outside in the cold. No apologies were given, he just kept assuring me he would have me away in a moment as he stumbled past assisting other customers. Another lady turned up who was just handing back a van and key, she was also made to wait roughly 30 minutes outside. I overheard her complain she was charged 2 for something and they wanted it in cash. Not overly sure what this was about. As I handed back the van the following morning at 8am, he asked me if I forgot to fill it

First time renting a vehicle from McGarry's and I am a very satisfied customer. The car was immaculate, the rates were very competitive and Mr. McGarry himself is a very pleasant chap indeed. I will certainly be using McGarry's again and would recommend it to anyone seeking to hire a vehicle. Outstanding service. Many thanks.
