Frequently Asked Questions
Is dry hire suitable for remote locations?
Yes, dry hire is commonly used on remote projects. It allows experienced crews to operate hired machinery without relying on external personnel. As long as transport is arranged in advance, equipment can be delivered and operated efficiently even in areas with limited infrastructure or access.
How is equipment delivered to island sites?
Delivery usually involves a combination of road and ferry transport. Depending on the machinery type and urgency, freight may need to be booked ahead of time. Coordinating delivery with project timelines helps ensure equipment arrives when needed, without delays or storage issues on-site.
Can lighting towers be used without mains power?
Yes, hybrid lighting towers are designed for off-grid environments. These units combine solar panels with a backup diesel generator, offering consistent output across long shifts. They're ideal for sites without access to mains electricity, reducing fuel use while maintaining reliable light coverage.
What makes mine-spec trailers different?
Mine-spec trailers are built with reinforced components, safety features and compliance requirements specific to high-risk or regulated worksites. They offer added stability, better braking systems and support gear like breakaway switches and heavy-duty legs — useful for remote or uneven terrain where durability matters.
