Hiring plant in Rustenburg

Platinum mining dominates Rustenburg's plant hire, from shaft and process plant earthworks to tailings dams, haul roads and rehabilitation. Excavators, articulated dump trucks, dozers, graders and water bowsers are in constant demand, while TLBs serve housing, schools and services in Phokeng, Boitekong and the town itself. The Bushveld norite here weathers to black turf, a strongly heaving clay that is excavated and replaced with selected gravel before roads or slabs go down, and hard norite boulders may need a breaker. Rain arrives in summer storms between October and March and turns black turf into thick, sticky mud. The tolled N4 Platinum Highway gives straightforward float access.

Typical mini excavator hire requests in the area come from:

• Mines and quarries: cleaning drains, spillage and small excavations around conveyors and process plant
• Housing estates and townships: service connections, cable trenches and stormwater work between finished houses and stands
• Roads, pipelines and civil works: small trenches for kerbs, road crossings and fibre along verges and pavements
• Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: digging cable and drain trenches inside warehouses and around operating factory plant
• House plots and renovations: digging pools, drains and extension footings in back gardens with narrow side access
• Shopping centres, offices and schools: trenching and small excavations inside buildings, courtyards and around existing parking
