Since then, we’ve steadily grown by purchasing new plant machinery and equipment for specific machinery hire contracts. We operate new and near-new plant and machinery. This minimizes downtime for our clients, and it also helps us keep our maintenance costs down, which in turn enables us to provide better value for money in the increasingly competitive plant and machinery hire market in Perth and across Western Australia. Our core focus is the hire of FRONT END LOADERS, GRADERS, EXCAVATORS, ROCK BREAKERS and various self-propelled ROLLERS. We believe you need to focus on certain aspects of hire to succeed, so we see ourselves as Perth’s construction, plant and machinery hire specialists. As such, we have a team of fitters in Perth who know our plant and machinery extremely well, so should the need arise we’re able to rectify the situation quickly, with minimal equipment downtime. In cases where our plant is in remote locations in Western Australia, we have arrangements with contractors who will liaise with our fitters to provide fast, effective repairs. We believe this commitment sets our plant and machinery hire services apart. CCF Member Offer: Hire a machine for 2 months or more, and get 10% off the standard rate.
