Adelaide's Most Trusted Machinery Hire

Stanford Hire is a family-run machinery hire business based at 49 Dawkins Road, Two Wells, South Australia. Founded and operated by the Stanford Hire team, we specialise in delivering excavators, mini loaders, skid steers, compaction equipment, concrete tools, and garden machinery directly to residential and trade customers across Adelaide's northern suburbs and beyond.

Whether you're a homeowner tackling a backyard landscaping project, a tradie on a tight deadline, or a builder planning a full site cut — we make hiring earthmoving equipment as simple and transparent as possible. Check availability, compare machines, get a delivery cost estimate, and book online or by phone. No hidden fees.

Every machine in our fleet is well-maintained and delivered with a full safety briefing by the Stanford Hire team. We believe in showing up on time, explaining how the equipment works, and being available by phone throughout your hire. Our customers keep coming back because we treat every job — big or small — with the same level of care.

Based in the northern Adelaide region, we service suburbs including Angle Vale, Gawler, Munno Para, Elizabeth, Salisbury, Modbury, Golden Grove and many more. Delivery and pickup pricing is calculated in real time based on your address, so there are no surprises.

If you have a question about which machine suits your job, use the Stanford Hire Assistant on this page. It checks the current fleet, asks for access width when needed, calculates delivery from the full address and gives you an instant answer.
