Hiring plant in Sandton
Space, not size, is usually the problem on Sandton sites. Jobs include basements for office and apartment towers, swimming pools and extensions on big suburban stands, and service trenches in busy streets, so mini excavators, skid steers and compact TLBs are popular, with tippers timed to load and leave quickly. Underfoot is weathered Johannesburg granite with collapsible sandy soil and boulders, which means breaker attachments and lateral support for deep cuts are common requirements. Storms between October and March can fill a basement in an afternoon, making a pump a sensible extra. Traffic around Rivonia Road and the M1 is heavy, so delivery times are agreed in advance.

Typical telehandler hire requests in the area come from:
- Shopping centres, offices and schools: placing materials on upper slabs and scaffold landings for a school, clinic or office block
- House plots and renovations: lifting roof tiles, trusses and pallets of bricks onto the wall plate of a double-storey house
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: offloading pipes, culvert sections and kerbs along a stormwater or road widening contract
- Housing estates and townships: moving blocks and roof sheeting between stands and loading out materials on a busy township build
- Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: lifting cladding, steel purlins and services onto a warehouse frame across a rough yard
