Two-Way Radio Hire for Events

Short & long term contracts available

For anyone running large sporting events to those overseeing new construction projects, two-way radio hire from DTS.Solutions (U.K) Ltd can be the best and most cost-effective option for onsite communication. The flexibility of being able to rent the equipment you need on a week-by-week or month-by-month basis has lots of benefits. DTS has a fleet of thousands of hire radios and can design bespoke solutions perfect for your project or event. We can also offer software applications to help manage your radio fleet, to make sure it’s all accounted for at the end of a hard day’s work.


Anyone! As DTS hire anything from a couple of back-to-back analogue radios all the way through to comprehensive digital solutions supporting thousands of users, any organisation from any sector can benefit from our Hire services. As a general rule, DTS recommends hiring to organisations looking to utilise radios for less than 6-months total over a 5-year period. If you are likely to utilise your radios for longer than this, we’d recommend purchasing or leasing your radio equipment. Many organisations we work with mix and match hire and purchase, supplementing their purchased radio fleets with hires at short notice, giving them the best of both worlds.

Here are just some of the sectors that can benefit from two-way radio hire from DTS:

  • Radio for Events: From large sporting events to small music festivals, radio for events keep your teams connected to each other seamlessly and instantly. Keep your car parks flowing, your attendees safe, and your venues secure.
  • Utilities: During planned outages or site-wide upgrades, utility sites such as power stations need additional radios for onsite contractors and team members. DTS offers a range of radios, including ATEX intrinsically-safe models for use during busy periods.
  • Education: From University graduations to primary school field trips, radios give your teachers and other staff the ability to speak to each other at the push of a button.
  • Retail: The retail market experiences peaks in visitors each year during major holidays such as Christmas or events like the January sales. Outlets and shopping centres often employ temporary staff during these busier times, all of whom will need to communicate and liaise with their colleagues. Two-way radio hire from DTS can be the perfect solution.
  • Distribution: Like retail, the distribution sector also experiences peaks and troughs in business at certain times of the year. During busier periods, temporary staff may be brought in on short-term contracts. Keep these new staff connected and supported by the broader team by issuing them with hired two-way radios. Hire radios can be added to your existing radio network for quick scalability and cross-departmental communication.
  • Transport: Hire from DTS can allow transportation hubs like train stations, airports and ports to increase capacity on their existing radio network during busier periods. For example, if you have a train station being used by thousands of fans to access a sporting event or concert, it may make sense to hire in radios to give to additional temporary, part-time staff. Hired radios could also be given to the event venue’s staff, allowing for better coordination and crowd control at the start or end of the event.
  • Experienced Support: Our Hire Team has decades of knowledge and experience. They’re here to support you before, during and after your DTS radio hire.
  • Expert Consultancy: Speak to one of our friendly, expert consultants so they can get an understanding of your hire requirements. They then design a tailored hire package which is built around your requirements. On your more extensive projects, a free, no-obligation site visit may be required.
  • A Wide Selection: Choose from the latest in digital radio technology, opt for cost-effective and traditional analogue radios or select a market-leading, nationwide push-to-talk over broadband (PTTB) solution. Whatever your hire communication needs, DTS literally has you covered!
  • Hassle-Free Spectrum Management: For most events and short-term hire requirements, we program radios to operate over our Ofcom-issued hire frequencies. For larger events, complex requirements or hires in densely built-up areas (such as London), you may need your own short-term Ofcom licence to avoid interference. Don’t worry though, DTS can help you with this too! It’s always worth contacting us several months out from your requirement if it’s likely to involve one of the aforementioned complex scenarios so we can ensure everything is in place for your event.
  • Reliable Kit: All of our equipment is cleaned, serviced and tested to manufacturer specification prior to dispatch making it the ideal radio for events hire package.
  • Service Exchange: If you’re experiencing any issues with your hire equipment, please let us know by emailing hire@dts.solutions, we will arrange for an equipment exchange. Once the faulty unit is returned to us, we will investigate the fault reported.
  • Charged and Ready: Your radio batteries come pre-charged. All you need to do is take the radio out of the box, and you’re ready to go.
  • Resilient Infrastructure: Our repeaters and other fixed equipment can be supplied with either 4-hour or 8-hour UPS/battery back-up solutions for complete peace-of-mind.
  • Feature-Rich Applications: Need to track, monitor or sign-in/out devices during your hire? DTS offers software like TRBOnet to provide these functions and so much more.
  • Onsite Expertise: Need a helping hand during your event? No problem! DTS can offer UK-wide onsite engineering support for part or all of your event.
  • Next Day Delivery: Order before 15:00 and receive next-working-day delivery of your hire to insure you get your two-way radio for events.
  • Expert Install/Expert De-Install: If you hire any of our infrastructure, we will send a trained DTS engineer to install and test it at the start of your hire, then collect it at the end.
  • Securely Packaged: Your hire equipment will be safely packaged inside heavy-duty transit cases. If you’re only hiring portable equipment, we take care of the courier delivery and collection.
