Hiring plant in George

George is the main centre of the Garden Route, with residential estates, retail, hospitals, the airport, and dairy farming and forestry in the surrounding area. TLBs, excavators, graders and rollers are hired for foundations, services, estate roads and farm dams. Weathered granite and shale produce clay soils that slip on steep slopes, while coastal sand around Wilderness and Herolds Bay needs compaction and tracked machines. Rain falls throughout the year rather than in one season, so earthworks need constant drainage, silt control and protection of cut slopes. The N2 and the Outeniqua Pass link George to the coast and the Karoo, and steep climbs slow heavy 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
• House plots and renovations: digging strip footings, pool holes and drain trenches, then backfilling and levelling the plot
• Farms, dams and game lodges: digging pipe trenches, cleaning furrows and fixing farm roads and small earth dams
• Shopping centres, offices and schools: trenching for services, kerb lines and light earthworks around offices, schools and clinics
• Roads, pipelines and civil works: stormwater trenches, culvert excavations and loading material for road and pipeline works
• Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: digging footings and cable trenches and clearing spoil around warehouse and factory sites
