Equipment Hire for
Fencing Contractors

Fencing contractors hire from Stanford Hire when hand-digging post holes in Adelaide clay is impractical — or when a fence line needs clearing before work can begin. Our auger-equipped excavators drill clean, accurate post holes in a fraction of the time, even in heavy clay and rocky ground.

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.
