Frequently asked questions
What skid steers do you have for hire?
We hire tracked skid steers in 1.6–1.8T, 2.2–2.8T and 5T sizes, plus a 3.5T wheeled skid steer. Call 0800 467 009 and we'll help you pick the right machine for your site.
Should I hire a tracked or wheeled skid steer?
Tracked machines give better traction and lower ground pressure on soft, muddy or sensitive ground, while the wheeled skid steer is faster and well suited to firm surfaces like concrete and sealed yards. Tell us about your site conditions and we'll advise.
Do I need a licence to operate a skid steer?
No specific licence is legally required to operate a skid steer on private land, but operators must be competent and WorkSafe guidelines apply. Our team can advise on requirements for your site.
Are attachments available for your skid steers?
Talk to us about what you need to do — we carry a range of earthmoving attachments and can advise what's available to suit the skid steer you're hiring. Call 0800 467 009 to discuss options.
Can you deliver a skid steer to my job?
Yes, we deliver Auckland-wide with our own transport trucks, offering same day or next day transport. You can also collect from our yard at 11 Waokauri Pl, Mangere.
Can I hire a skid steer long-term?
Yes, alongside daily and weekly hire we offer long-term rental with flexible terms. It's a good option if you want a machine on site for a whole project.
What does skid steer hire cost?
Rates depend on the machine and how long you need it. Call us on 0800 467 009 or request a quote online and we'll price it for your job.
