I’ve rented from Woodford Car Rental (Polokwane) three times so far, and my experience has been great every time. The staff are always kind, patient, and helpful throughout the process. Their customer service makes everything smooth and stress-free. I truly appreciate the professionalism and friendly attitude from the team. Keep up the excellent service!

The car was ready for my collection. Friendly receptionist, easy drop off procedures.

Amazing service from Zondi at the Rosebank branch. I need a car at short notice, booked online and just after an hour I was able to collect. To my surprise I was upgraded which was appreciated. Then just before the car was due to be returned I need to extend to the next day. Zondi sorted me out with a smile, no hassles and no fuss. What a great ambassador for the brand... Years ago I had amazing service from Desigan at the King Shaka branch and since then, because of the excellent client service from these gents I would not even bother looking elsewhere for my rental needs. Keep it up and hope Zondi is recognised.

As someone who travels to Johannesburg and Cape Town regularly for business, I rent vehicles frequently and have historically stuck with established brands like Europcar and First Car Rental. However, after my experience today, Woodford Car Hire has officially become my top choice.

I booked a vehicle through Booking.com and collected it from the OR Tambo International Airport branch. I was assisted by a wonderful agent named Jezica Dry, and I cannot praise her enough. Admittedly, I can be a demanding and difficult client at times, but Jezica handled the entire process with the utmost professionalism, efficiency, and a genuinely warm, friendly attitude. She went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, completely turning my day around and putting a massive smile on my face.

This was hands down the best customer service experience I have had in ages. A huge thank you to the Woodford team, and especially to Jezica for her outstanding work ethic and hospitality. You have won a loyal, returning customer!

My experience with the Woodford has been nothing short of exceptional. From the professionalism of their staff to the quality and reliability of their vehicles, Woodford consistently delivers service of the highest standard. Their team is efficient, accommodating, and customer-focused, ensuring a seamless rental experience from booking through to vehicle return. What stands out most is their commitment to customer satisfaction, transparency, and reliability. Vehicles are always well-maintained, clean, and presented in excellent condition, Trust, service excellence, and consistency are critical, Woodford Car Rental continues to exceed expectations. I would confidently recommend them.
