Hiring plant in Stellenbosch
University growth, residential estates and some of the country's best-known wine farms keep plant working around Stellenbosch. Farms hire excavators and TLBs for dams, vineyard preparation and irrigation, while the town needs foundations, services and road upgrades. Ground ranges from granite with boulders to Malmesbury shale clay and Table Mountain sandstone on the mountain slopes, so breakers are frequently needed and clay sites need proper drainage. Winter rain between May and August makes farm roads muddy and can halt earthworks. Narrow historic streets, heritage controls and traffic on the R44 and R310 mean compact machines and careful delivery timing are often the best approach.
Typical plant hire rates requests in the area come from:
- Farms, dams and game lodges: earth dams, contour banks, farm roads, bush clearing and loading feed, bales or produce
- Housing estates and townships: service trenches for water, sewer and electrical, internal roads, stand platforms and stormwater
- House plots and renovations: site clearing, foundation trenches, driveways, pools, retaining walls and rubble removal
- Shopping centres, offices and schools: bulk earthworks, basements, parking areas, lifting steel and cladding, and site power
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: cut and fill, layer works, compaction, culverts, kerbs and pipeline trenches
