Plant Hire

What is plant hire?

Plant hire is the hiring of equipment, tools, machinery and other equipment (known as “plant”) to an individual or another company. This is a very cost-effective way of getting hold of the “right tool” for the job without the large expense of buying this equipment. This suits individuals and small companies who may only need the equipment for a short time and perhaps would never need it again?

Imagine a small digger – it would be impractical for an individual to buy one if they wanted to dig out a hole for a trampoline in their garden or dig out a base for a shed. But hiring one gives someone access to a digger (without the hard work of manually digging!!) for a short time.

Ever hired anything?

When doing large jobs around your home or business it’s the norm to just struggle on with the tools and equipment that you have – or with things that you borrow from friends and family. Jobs get done more quickly, easily and to a better finish with the right tools and equipment. To that end, it is always worth considering hiring equipment and plant for any job you need to do.

People tend to worry that the equipment will be difficult to use…

One of the things that puts people off hiring equipment is not knowing how to operate the plant when they get it. People tend to worry that the equipment will be difficult to use or that they’ll break something or damage something. This is incorrect in the vast majority of cases. These machines are designed to be simple to operate and need very little tuition. They are also extremely safe as long as you don’t remove or interfere with any guards or safety mechanisms.

Here at S. Matthew Paving Property and Ground Maintenance we can offer a variety of plant for hire in and around the Fife area. We make sure that our plant arrives in fully working condition with a full tank of fuel and we can spend time with you to ensure that you know how to operate the equipment and get the very best out of your hire.
