Hiring plant in Sandton
Space, not size, is usually the problem on Sandton sites. Jobs include basements for office and apartment towers, swimming pools and extensions on big suburban stands, and service trenches in busy streets, so mini excavators, skid steers and compact TLBs are popular, with tippers timed to load and leave quickly. Underfoot is weathered Johannesburg granite with collapsible sandy soil and boulders, which means breaker attachments and lateral support for deep cuts are common requirements. Storms between October and March can fill a basement in an afternoon, making a pump a sensible extra. Traffic around Rivonia Road and the M1 is heavy, so delivery times are agreed in advance.
Typical bobcat hire requests in the area come from:
- 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
- Housing estates and townships: cleaning stands, spreading base and loading waste between rows of new houses
- Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: cleaning factory yards, moving materials and sweeping warehouse aprons and loading bays
