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 tool hire requests in the area come from:
- Shopping centres, offices and schools: core drills, wall chasers and power floats hired for fit-outs and new floors
- House plots and renovations: drills, tile cutters and a floor sander hired for a renovation or extension
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: floor saws and water pumps hired for cutting asphalt and draining trenches
- Housing estates and townships: floor saws, poker vibrators and pumps hired for slabs and service trenches across many stands
- Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: floor saws and grinders hired for joint cutting and preparing warehouse floors
