About Us
THE HISTORY OF MORETON HIRE
Moreton Hire is a family owned business with a long history and an exciting future.
WHERE IT ALL BEGAN…
FOUNDED IN 1969
Moreton Hire was founded in 1969 by Marlene and Kevin Morahan in Manly, Brisbane. The Morahan’s bought chairs for the school fete, but before they knew it, the locals were putting in their borrowing requests. “Moreton Bay Hire” was officially born in their family garage, offering party and building equipment for hire.
With family values
A FAMILY BUSINESS
In 1978, tragedy struck when Kevin passed away, leaving Marlene with six children and the family business. Together with her children, she led their backyard party hire operation, determined to grow it into a trusted name in equipment hire company across Queensland. Over time, the family dropped the “Bay” from the name and expanded Moreton Hire nationally.
Building events & exhibitions
CONTINUOUS INNOVATION
Since these humble beginnings, the company has continued to reinvent itself. With its products, services, technology and sectors continuously developed to offer a modern service for our customers. Today, Marlene’s children and grandchildren continue to drive Moreton Hire to be Australia’s largest business event provider.
