Hiring plant in North West
Mining on the platinum belt around Rustenburg and Brits keeps excavators, dump trucks, graders and water carts busy, while farming towns further west hire TLBs for dams, feedlots and pipelines. The eastern side sits on Bushveld norite that weathers to black turf, a heaving clay that has to be dug out deep and replaced before slabs or roads go down. Around Potchefstroom and parts of Klerksdorp, dolomite calls for geotechnical sign-off and careful stormwater control. Most rain falls in short, heavy storms between October and March, leaving black turf unworkable for days. Towns are far apart, so check whether a quote includes the float to site and back.
Typical compactor hire requests in the area come from:
- Mines and quarries: compacting fill around plant footings, cable trenches and small pads at a mine or process plant
- Farms, dams and game lodges: compacting floors for sheds and stores and backfilling irrigation pipe trenches on a farm
- Housing estates and townships: backfilling water, sewer and electrical trenches between stands with rammers and plates
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: compacting trench backfill, kerb bedding and sidewalk paving along municipal road works
- House plots and renovations: compacting the base for a driveway, patio or garage slab and backfilling around foundations
- Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: compacting backfill around machine bases, drains and footings inside a factory or warehouse
