Hiring plant in Worcester

In the Breede River Valley, Worcester's plant hire is driven by vineyards, fruit farms, packhouses, transport depots and housing in Zwelethemba. Farms hire excavators for dams, land preparation and irrigation trenches, while the town needs TLBs for foundations and services and graders for farm roads. The valley floor has river alluvium with cobbles and a seasonal high water table, so pumps help in winter, while Bokkeveld shale and Table Mountain sandstone on the slopes may need a breaker. Most rain falls between May and August, though the valley is much drier than Cape Town. The N1 through the Huguenot Tunnel connects Worcester to Cape Town.
