Hiring plant in Bloemfontein
Mangaung combines a provincial and judicial capital with large farms on its edges, so plant hire covers housing, government buildings, hospitals, schools and municipal road work as well as farm dams and drainage. TLBs, excavators, graders and rollers are the most common hires. Ground is mainly Karoo mudstone and shale that weathers to expansive clay, so foundation trenches are dug deeper and backfill is compacted with care, while dolerite koppies such as Naval Hill need a breaker. Rain falls in summer thunderstorms between November and March, leaving clay sites sticky. Because the N1 and N8 meet here, Bloemfontein is a convenient base for moving plant across the Free State.
Typical grader hire requests in the area come from:
- Housing estates and townships: trimming internal estate roads and stand platforms to level before kerbs and paving go in
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: spreading, mixing and trimming gravel and base layers and cutting side drains on road works
- Shopping centres, offices and schools: spreading and trimming base layers for a shopping centre parking area and access roads
- Farms, dams and game lodges: blading farm roads, cutting contour drains and clearing firebreaks before the dry winter
- House plots and renovations: levelling a large residential stand and shaping a long gravel driveway before paving
- Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: levelling terraces and yard layers to tight tolerances for a warehouse or logistics park
