The most common construction equipment you'll find available will be the classics, machines like excavators, wheel loaders, mini loaders and backhoes are found across almost all worksites and are a common part of any hire fleet. The size and length of your project will determine what best fits your needs, so you'll need to confirm with your chosen hire company as to what options you have.
If you're doing some DIY or construction work in tight areas, then consider hiring a mini loader or mini excavator. Designed to fit into areas with limited space, these specially designed machines can ensure you can still get the full benefits of a loader or an excavator, without needing a full sized machine or potentially damaging the area you're working in.
Of course, your hire company will also have a range of larger machines, designed to lift or move larger and heavier loads across open worksites. If your job is on particularly rough terrain, consider asking them about their all-terrain models. These are built to handle operating on a variety of different surfaces and can handle everything from basic earth, to rocky hills and even sandy dunes.
That said, construction equipment hire isn't just about heavy machinery. In fact, many hire companies will offer a complete range of accessories and worksite necessities to ensure you have everything you need to get the job done.
Equipment hire for things like light towers, generators and even signage will provide a great coverage of smaller items that you may not have on-hand or available for a certain job.
If you need long-term hire for a project, then you're in luck. Many hire companies offer a huge selection of varying hire terms. Generally starting from as little as 4 hours, almost all construction equipment hire will have options for a day up to a week or more. Some companies will even provide months or even multiple year hire terms.
Picking the right hire term will depend on the scale of your project and it's something you will need to discuss with your chosen hire company. You may also want to discuss separate hire terms for any wet hire or attachment hire you'll need throughout the project.
