About Us
Our History
It was Michael’s passion for helping people that led him to expand his business, Blessed Rentals, from providing only car rentals to providing transportation to people with disabilities.
Prior to providing the transportation service, Michael had been working in the corporate world, but when he was severed from his job of twenty-two years, he made the decision to work full time on his car rental business, a small entity he had set up in 2007.
However, a relative who had suffered brain damage at the tender age of two years old needed help moving around as she was unable to walk. Michael acquired a van with an accessible lift for wheelchair users and what started out as an act to help a family member turned into a business that has grown steadily since 2012.
Blessed Rentals now boasts a fleet of 12 taxis and 10 hired vehicles, and a staff complement of 7, and they are currently the only company in Barbados that provides wheelchair accessible rental vans.
With a vision of creating a memorable experience for their clients, Blessed Rentals’ mission is to provide prompt, safe and reliable transport to its clients with a team dedicated to providing the highest quality customer service.
For Michael, what he does is more than a job; it is God’s business. Even the name of the business came to him from God and is pronounced as two syllables: Bless-ed Rentals – and not one as is the tradition with the word ‘blessed’.
This company is still growing as Michael and his team are always on the move servicing both local and visiting clientele. Some people may call it a small operation, and that is just fine by the Blessed Rentals team who will share their slogan with you: Small enough to care, large enough to make it happen.
