Scoop Hire is an established Australian construction equipment supplier based in Melbourne that caters for the specific needs for contractors. The company offers a wide range of heavy machinery ranging from mini and standard excavators for hire, mini dumpers, ground mats and a range of hydraulic tools and attachments that are crucial for construction projects.
We at Scoop Hire have been around long enough to understand the dynamics of the construction industry and are able to support construction crews in a wide variety of ways. Through us, construction companies are able to keep their capital needs low as by hiring equipment such as excavators on a as and when needed basis, construction outfits do not need to worry about capital and also logistics.
For example, a Kubota mini excavator for hire costs approximately $200 and a construction outfit doing a home improvement project would only probably need this excavator on the first and last day of the project. This means that the crew could just hire the excavator for 2 days as opposed to buying the excavator for $18,000. Apart from this, the fact that we also provide delivery and pick up services would mean that the project manager would have lesser things to worry about.
Then there is also the question of maintaining these machines in the event that the company decides to buy the excavator. Even the 600Kg Cormidi Mini Dumper which is usually used for debris removal for landscaping projects are given on hire for a daily rate of $150 as opposed to buying the unit and shrink your working capital by thousands of dollars.
Scoop Hire only hires out the best of the best and some of our top products that move like ‘hot cakes’ include the Kubota mini excavator units. We offer the Kubota 1.7T, Kubota 2.5 T and the U25-3S excavator which are perfect for projects that have limited space to work within. We also offer bigger standard-sized excavators, tracked and wheeled excavators, backhoes, an assortment of hydraulic attachments.
The Kubota 3.5T is what we usually recommend for bigger tasks or construction work that requires the extra brute force. The main point of it is the fact that it is simply ‘cost-practical’ to hire equipment rather than buying them. There are so many different types of construction equipment that are needed for projects and buying all of them would not be a feasible idea. Imagine having to buy two different types of excavators for a home improvement project or a landscaping project (one with rubber tracks to protect the grass and the other – a wheeled excavator)?
The logistics that come with them, moving, maintaining and repairing can eventually add up to a significant amount that would eat up working capital which could be used for other project related things. Be practical and smart about your projects, just give us a call today or visit the Scoop Hire website.
