Hiring plant in Kathu
Iron ore built Kathu, and plant hire here leans heavily toward large mining contracts, solar plants, haul roads and housing for mine staff. Excavators, dozers, dump trucks, graders and water bowsers dominate, while TLBs and tippers handle services and housing in town, Sishen and Dingleton. Ground is typically Kalahari sand over hard calcrete and banded ironstone, so tracked machines travel well on the surface and rippers or breakers deal with what lies beneath. The little rain that falls arrives in summer storms, mostly between January and April. Kimberley and Upington are both a long haul away, so transport and standing time form a big part of every quote.
Typical bobcat hire requests in the area come from:
- Mines and quarries: cleaning spillage under conveyors and around crushers and workshops in confined areas
- Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: cleaning factory yards, moving materials and sweeping warehouse aprons and loading bays
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: sweeping milled surfaces, clearing verges and spreading material along kerbs and sidewalks
- Housing estates and townships: cleaning stands, spreading base and loading waste between rows of new houses
- House plots and renovations: clearing builder's rubble, spreading topsoil and levelling driveways and patios for paving
