Parkers
Garage began in 1949 when it was founded by two brothers; Maurice
and Aubrey Parker in Western Road, Haywards Heath.
The early rental
fleet was the largest of its kind in Mid Sussex (and still is to
this day) and consisted of a number of vehicles including Morris
Minors, Morris Oxfords, Morris Eights and Austin Sevens, some of
which even had heaters!
Upon Maurice and
Aubreys retirement in 1983, the company was bought by David
Chewter, who with a small fleet of four Ford Cortinas, continued
to make the business thrive and maintained the tradition of a family
run business.
In 1997 Parkers
moved from its birthplace in Western Road Haywards Heath to a new
centre in Bridge Road Industrial Estate, Haywards Heath, West Sussex.
This facility has approximately 6000 square feet of workshop, parts
stores and offices, along with parking for more than 100 vehicles.
These new premises
allowed Parkers to extend its services. As a result we are now able
to offer low cost, flexible, car and truck rental in Sussex and
the surrounding areas. Furthermore Parkers also offers a meet and
greet service at Gatwick airport allowing quick, no hassle, car
pickup direct from the Airport.
Although Parkers'
rental fleet still remains the largest in Mid Sussex, we believe
that we give a more personal, individual service than the larger
national groups.
It is our policy
to encourage talent in every part of the company and ensure a high
degree of continuity of staff to provide the very best service to
our customers. |
