Plant And Equipment Hire
We hire plant and equipment across Kingaroy, the South Burnett and regional Queensland. Larger plant goes out with one of our operators. Trailers, generators, pumps and site gear are available for you to run yourself.
You get the machine plus a Skyline operator, charged by the hour. We carry the licensing, the maintenance and the competency side of it. This is the only way our excavators, loader, trucks and prime mover go out.
You collect the gear or we deliver it, and you run it yourself. Charged by the day, week or month. Available on trailers, generators, pumps, lighting and site equipment. Insurance and a competent operator are your responsibility.
Every rate below is shown ex GST with the GST inclusive figure underneath. Minimum hire periods, delivery, bond and insurance conditions apply. Rates current as at 1 September 2026.
Wet Hire Only
Our CASE excavators run with a Skyline operator. The rate shown covers the machine in that configuration, so changing attachments during a job does not add to it.

Before You Book
These conditions apply to every hire. Anything specific to your job is confirmed on your quote.
A day is 24 hours, a week is 7 days and a month is 31 days. Charges run from when the gear leaves our Kingaroy yard until it is back with us or collected.
One day on dry hire. Wet hire has a four hour minimum, and the travel time to and from your site counts toward those four hours.
Collect dry hire from our Kingaroy yard at no charge. If we deliver, plant that needs a float is charged at the float rate and smaller gear at $85 per hour, both charged from our yard and back with a one hour minimum.
Dry hire is paid in full before the gear leaves our yard. Wet hire is invoiced on 7 day terms unless you have an approved account with us.
A bond may apply on dry hire, held against damage and late return, and refunded once the gear is back and checked. We will tell you before you book.
On dry hire the equipment is in your care, so you are responsible for insuring it and for any damage beyond fair wear. Talk to us about your cover before you book.
Cancel within 24 hours of the agreed start and the applicable minimum hire is charged, plus any float already committed.
Fuel, consumables and any damage beyond fair wear are charged in addition to the hire rate. Rates are current as at 3 September 2026 and may change.
