Hiring plant in Alberton
Hillside estates in Meyersdal and Brackenhurst, an industrial base around Alrode and large housing projects in Katlehong and Thokoza give Alberton a broad plant hire market. Sloping stands mean retaining walls, terraces and stepped platforms, which call for excavators and compactors, while township roads need graders and rollers. Underfoot is mostly Witwatersrand shale and quartzite, with rock close to the surface on the ridges and clay in the low areas, so a breaker is a useful extra. Between October and March, summer storms create fast runoff and erosion on cut slopes. The N3, N12 and R59 give good access, though morning traffic can delay floats.

Typical TLB hire requests in the area come from:
- Housing estates and townships: service trenches for water, sewer and electricity across new stands and internal roads
- Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: digging footings and cable trenches and clearing spoil around warehouse and factory sites
- House plots and renovations: digging strip footings, pool holes and drain trenches, then backfilling and levelling the plot
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: stormwater trenches, culvert excavations and loading material for road and pipeline works
- Shopping centres, offices and schools: trenching for services, kerb lines and light earthworks around offices, schools and clinics
