Hiring plant in Cape Town

Cape Town's plant market spans city basements, Atlantic seaboard extensions, northern suburb estates, Cape Flats housing and harbour and logistics work. The ground varies enormously. Cape Flats sand with a high water table needs tracked machines and dewatering, Malmesbury shale weathers to stiff clay, and granite and Table Mountain sandstone on the slopes call for a breaker. Tight, steep stands on the seaboard favour mini excavators and skid steers. The rainy season runs from May to August, so bulk earthworks are usually planned for the dry summer when the water table is lower. Heavy traffic on the N1, N2 and M5 means float deliveries are often booked for early morning.

Typical front end loader hire requests in the area come from:

• Housing estates and townships: moving bulk fill and loading trucks from stockpiles during township earthworks
• Shopping centres, offices and schools: loading trucks and moving fill during bulk earthworks for shopping centres and parking
• House plots and renovations: loading sand, stone and rubble onto trucks where a large residential site has open space
• Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: building platforms with imported fill and working material stockpiles in logistics yards
• Roads, pipelines and civil works: loading gravel and crushed stone and moving layer-works material along road projects
