Equipment Hire for
Small Civil Contractors

Small civil contractors hire from Stanford Hire when they need additional equipment for a specific project — or when their own machines are committed elsewhere. Our fleet covers the full range of civil earthmoving work, from site preparation and trenching to compaction and material movement.

Commercial and long-term hire is available with discounted rates on selected machinery from 7 days. We can arrange delivery and collection from site, and selected machines can be prepared to site requirements with relevant high-vis markings, amber beacons/flashing lights and service history documentation.
