Hiring plant in Potchefstroom
Dolomite is the first thing to plan for when hiring plant in Potchefstroom. Much of the town and district is underlain by it, so student housing, campus upgrades, retail and farm work along the Mooi River all start with a geotechnical report, short open trenches and careful stormwater and pipe detailing to avoid sinkholes. Chert bands and rock pinnacles can need a breaker, and near the river the water table is high enough to require pumps. TLBs, excavators and rollers are the usual hires. Storms between October and March bring most of the rain. The N12 links Potchefstroom to Klerksdorp and Johannesburg, making plant easy to bring in.
Typical bobcat hire requests in the area come from:
- Housing estates and townships: cleaning stands, spreading base and loading waste between rows of new houses
- Farms, dams and game lodges: cleaning out sheds and feedlots, moving feed and drilling post holes for fencing
- Shopping centres, offices and schools: preparing parking areas, sweeping roads and moving pallets around shopping centres and offices
- House plots and renovations: clearing builder's rubble, spreading topsoil and levelling driveways and patios for paving
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: sweeping milled surfaces, clearing verges and spreading material along kerbs and sidewalks
- Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: cleaning factory yards, moving materials and sweeping warehouse aprons and loading bays
