G&M Direct Hire Ltd was founded in 2008 and has since emerged as a prominent PCO hire company in London. We have assisted over 6000 drivers on their PCO journey, establishing ourselves as a trusted and experienced partner in the industry.
An excellent experience from start to finish. The entire team was incredibly friendly and supportive. I’ll always recommend them and they’ll remain my first choice for PCO car hire in London, thanks to their fairness and transparency.

I’ve had a great experience with G&M Direct Hire over three years with them and never a single issue, whether with the PCO vehicles or the staff. Everyone in the office is polite and highly professional. They’re a fantastic team, and I always have peace of mind knowing things are in their hands. Thank you, team!

I’ve used several PCO companies, but I must say this one has been the best PCO rental by far. G&M Direct genuinely cares about its reputation and goes the extra mile to support you. The team is always helpful and truly works with you, not just for you. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
