Plant & Machinery Hire
Mini diggers, dumpers, rollers and compaction plate — supplied with an experienced operator and full insurance.

The right machine, with an operator who knows gardens
Groundwork moves faster with the right kit. We hire out mini diggers, dumpers, compaction plate and rollers — with a trained operator, so you're not gambling on hire yard equipment and your own guesswork.
Ideal for landscapers, builders and homeowners taking on excavation, site clearance, footings, driveway digs and levelling where access is tight and damage to the property isn't an option.
Our plant & machinery hire process
A simple, transparent four-step process — so you always know what's happening and when.
Tell us the job
Dig depth, access width, spoil volume and ground conditions — we'll spec the right machine.
Access check
We confirm gate widths, surfaces to protect and where plant and spoil can be sited.
On site
Machine delivered and operated by our team, working to your levels and programme.
Clear down
Spoil removed if required, surfaces cleaned and plant collected the same day where possible.
