As we head into the latter half of November, the first real signs of winter are starting to show – frost on the ground, freezing temperatures, and Christmas trees popping up all over. Winter’s officially here, and it’s time to get prepped for the season ahead.
Whether you’re tackling home DIY projects in time for Christmas, preparing for a festive event, or keeping your worksite on track, we’ve got you covered at Smiths Hire. With our top 100 tool hire pledge, we’ll make sure you’ve got the right gear to handle whatever winter throws your way – whatever the job at hand! Here are four things you’ll always find in stock no matter what time of year it is, but that might be particularly helpful as we get closer to the new year.
Get your carpets ready for Christmas with our ‘pull along’ carpet cleaner
With Christmas less than six weeks away and festive gatherings just around the corner, it’s the perfect opportunity to spruce up your home, more specifically, your carpets. Your carpets get gradually worn down over the year with all foot traffic, so if you’re looking to get the plush and clean again before your festive get-together, the Karcher Puzzi 10/1 Professional Carpet Cleaner is your best bet! Its effective spray-extraction technology quickly lifts dirt and stains, leaving your carpets looking vibrant and clean. Plus, with fast drying times, you can create a welcoming space for your guests without the long wait.
Key Features:
- Easy-to-use design with quick setup
- Removable wastewater container for easy refilling
- Minimal drying time so you can return to your rooms sooner
Crowd barriers for your Christmas event
If you’re on an events team planning a Christmas market, a community lights switch-on, or a festive food and drink festival, one thing you’ll be focusing on is crowd safety, especially when it comes to foot flow and restricted areas. That’s where our durable 2.5m crowd barriers come in! Our crowd barriers are built for easy interlinking and maximum stability to keep your guests safe, direct foot traffic, and create a well-organised environment. Their robust construction holds up even against the worst of the weather, leaving you free to focus on your festivities.
Key Features:
- Fixed-leg design for stability
- Hook and eye interlinking mechanism
- Options in galvanised steel or powder-coated finishes

This compact yet powerful unit is designed to quickly and efficiently heat small to medium-sized spaces, providing warmth and comfort no matter how low the temperature drops outside!

Our 110V large dehumidifier is just what you need to create a more comfortable and dry environment.
This dehumidifier can impressively extract up to 30 litres of moisture each day, which means it can dry spaces out much quicker (up to two-thirds faster than traditional methods)!
