Wet & Dry Equipment Hire

Wet hire puts an experienced operator on the machine. Dry hire suits ticketed operators running their own program. Either way the machine arrives with the attachments the job actually needs.

Frequently asked questions

Wet hire includes an operator. Dry hire is the machine only and requires a competent, ticketed operator on your side.

What is the minimum hire period?

Ask when you enquire — it depends on the job, the date and transport.
