Tools and General Equipment hire Australia
General hire fills the gaps on every project: the tool for a one-day task, a replacement while your own is serviced, or specialist gear you'd rarely buy.
What tools and general equipment can you hire?
Tools and General Equipment Hire in Australia covers a range of machine types and sizes. These are the most commonly hired, and what each is typically used for:
| Machine | Typical use |
|---|---|
| Concrete saws & core drills | Cutting slabs, pavements and wall penetrations |
| Jackhammers & breakers | Demolition and concrete removal |
| Air compressors | Pneumatic tools, sandblasting and air supply |
| Concrete mixers & vibrators | Small pours and placement quality |
| Pressure washers & floor tools | Cleaning, grinding and surface preparation |
| Heaters, fans & dehumidifiers | Drying, curing and comfort on site |
Before you request a quote
A useful enquiry tells the supplier what has to be achieved, where the equipment will work and what could change the selection. Include dimensions, quantities, material conditions, dates, the delivery route, unloading area and any site compliance requirements.
Compare offers on the complete configuration: machine, attachments, operator (for wet or dry hire), transport both ways, minimum hours, fuel and return conditions. See how to read a plant hire quote.
Selection factors
Three things that change the answer.
Consumables
Blades, bits and abrasives are often charged on wear. Confirm the rates before you start.
Dust and silica controls
Cutting and grinding concrete needs water suppression or extraction to manage silica exposure.

FAQ
Tools and General Equipment hire questions.
Can I hire tools for a single day?
Yes. General tool hire is commonly daily, half-day or weekend, with weekly rates for longer jobs.
Are blades charged separately?
Diamond blades and consumables are frequently charged by wear or measured on return.
Do I need silica controls when cutting concrete?
Yes. Engineered and natural stone and concrete produce respirable crystalline silica, so use wet cutting or on-tool extraction and appropriate RPE.
Do tool hire companies deliver?
Many do for larger items. Smaller tools are usually collected from the branch.
