Mini Digger Hire Available throughout Oxford

Tuesday, January 24th, 2012

Looking to carry out some work which requires the excavation of land but the scale of the project is both too small for large, cumbersome equipment and too big to use manual tools such as spades? If this is the case, then hiring a mini digger Thame from us at Helpful Hirings will most likely be your answer, as it will take care of the job efficiently and our effective hiring service will ensure that all proceedings run smoothly and to expectations.

The choice for garden landscapers Berkshire, tree surgeons and those who deal in an array of groundworks, mini diggers are a compact and versatile solution to excavation needs which allow ground to be shifted with ease whilst benefitting from their minimal impact on surroundings and ability to work in confined spaces.

As we’ve been hiring and selling this equipment for industry and DIY purposes for almost 50 years, we at Helpful Hirings have acquired a vast amount of knowledge and range of these mini diggers to make sure that you will be hiring the machine that is best suited to your specific job.

Our extensive range of mini diggers available for hire throughout Oxford and the surrounding areas include some of the smallest, 1-ton diggers available that come complete with folding ROPS bars and retractable tracks. These diggers can fit through a pedestrian doorway and with the zero tail swing on the Kubota U10 model, this is the perfect choice for the smallest, most confined jobs. Larger mini diggers include 1.5-ton diggers that can fit on the back of a trailer but dig 2 metre deep holes, 2.6-ton Kubota KX61-3 with a longer reach of 4.72m and many other that lead all the way up to 5.5-ton digger suited to larger jobs and the wet conditions of winter.

Karcher Hire Specialist Thame

Monday, October 24th, 2011

Whether you work within the construction industry, at a car garage or you’re just a keen DIYer, there will undoubtedly be a time where you’ll require a tool which doesn’t exist in your toolbox. Instead of trying to compromise by using another tool, why not make your task easier by hiring the perfect tool from a specialist, such as ourselves here at Helpful Hirings? After all, we’re specialists in a variety of tool hire, including Karcher hire Thame.

For over the last forty-years we’ve been providing professionals and domestic customers alike with a wide variety of high quality tools which can be hired for a set period of time, at an affordable price. It isn’t just our prices which make us stand out as one of the specialists in the tool hire industry – it’s also our ability to provide our customers with the best tools available, including those manufactured by Karcher.

As a highly effective piece of cleaning apparatus our high water pressure cleaners can be used in various different environments, with our domestic, commercial and industrial clients benefitting from its ability to clean awkward, grime ridden surfaces.

Domestic

As any homeowner will testify, over time the exterior of your home can become dirty and rather lacklustre due to the build-up of smut. One place where this is particularly noticeable is the patio, where the foot traffic and general wear and tear leaves the paving area looking dirty. However, by using the cold water pressure cleaning system you can completely remove dirt and rejuvenate the appearance of your patio, driveway, or garden path by literally blasting the dirt away from the surface.

Industrial and Commercial

Often the machinery in an industrial building will develop a film of oil and grease, which could hinder its efficiency. To keep your machinery in tip top condition the Karcher hot steam cleaner is perfect. The juxtaposition of the warm water and pressure means that it removes oil and grease quickly and efficiently with minimum manual labour.

Whatever tool you require, if you want to ensure that you have the best product for the job, then contact our team here at Helpful Hirings and take advantage of our Karcher hire Thame. For more information about any of our products contact us today on 01844 212468.

The Benefits of Planer Hire

Wednesday, July 27th, 2011

A quality surfacing project which involves either the repair or resurfacing of a current driveway, requires specialist equipment. For many projects involving a driveway, a planer is often needed to produce a professional and quality finish to the work which is undertaken. At CR MacDonald we appreciate that not everyone understands the true advantage of hiring a planer and consequently, our team aim to clarify how you could benefit from our planer hire Birmingham.

How You Could Benefit:

For homeowners and small businesses, it does not make financial sense to invest in a highly specialist piece of equipment which is likely to only be used a few times. In this instance, the benefit of hiring equipment emerges. It works out to be more cost effective for those who intend to use the planer for a limited number of times to hire the equipment rather than buy. For those businesses which are trying to budget their finances, hiring equipment is a great way to save money, whilst still having access to the tools needed to complete the job.

Ideal Use for a Planer

Planers are commonly used to smooth and flatten medium or large areas of stone, masonry and concrete Birmingham quickly and effectively. For this reason, a planer is ideal for use on the following surfaces;

•    Asphalt and concrete surfaces

•    Major and rural roads

•    Car Parks

•    Junctions

•    Surface roughing

If you are undertaking a driveway project, then you may benefit from planer hire Birmingham. Planer hire is available from the team at CR MacDonald, who are always happy to offer advice and support to customers. Contact us on 0121 3710 320 for more information.

Uses and Applications of a Scissor Lift

Wednesday, March 23rd, 2011

Within both the construction trade and when working within a factory setting, there will come a time when you’re required to reach an area which is high up above the ground – whether this is for maintenance reasons or construction. To safely do this, you should take advantage of a scissor lift, and here at Helpful Hirings as specialists in scissor lift hire Oxford we currently have a range of four scissor lifts available which are suitable for either rough terrain or factory use; as outlined below.

Rough Terrain:

Ideal for use on various construction sites, the two rough terrain scissor lifts which we have available are the four wheel drive, self propelled diesel Genie GS3268 and the GS3384.

The GS3268 offers a working height of 11.75 metres on a 2.51 by 1.55 metre platform and an inside turning radius of 1.52 metres. It has an outside turning radius of 3.68 metres and lift capacity of over 450kg. The GS3384 on the other hand comes with a lift capacity of 1,134kg, an inside turning radius of 3.09 metres, an outside turning radius of 5.94 metres and a working height of 12.06 metres on a 3.94 by 1.83 metre steel platform.

To put it simply, the GS3384 is the more heavy duty piece of equipment which is suited to accommodate more people working at a greater maximum height.

Factory:

The factory friendly scissor lifts available to hire through us here at Helpful Hirings include the electronic self propelled JLG 2030ES and the JLG 3246ES.

The JLG3246ES offers a working height of 9.68 metres on a 1.12 by 2.50metre platform, which is able to handle a maximum weight of 320kg. Our JLG 2030ES on the other hand offers a lower working height of 6.10 metres but is able to handle a weight of up to 364kg. If you’re lifting heavy goods, there’s a chance you’ll be storing of moving them to a lower location, hence the lower height yet greater weight capacity of the latter lift.

Whatever reason you require scissor lift hire Oxford, here at Helpful Hirings we’ll be able to provide you with the perfect model to suit your specifications. If you require any further advice or information regarding the equipment available for hire, please don’t hesitate to either contact us or download our online brochure.

Types of Equipment Produced by Merlo

Wednesday, January 26th, 2011

When working within the construction trade, it’s important that you have the best tools to hand. Unfortunately, buying the best tools outright can be expensive and isn’t always viable; if you find yourself in this boat, here at Helpful Hirings we can help. As keen construction enthusiasts, we understand the importance of having the best tools available – and we understand that when it comes to tools it isn’t just about the hammers and spanners. We appreciate that at times you’ll require telehandlers and excavators too, which is why we provide an unbeatable hire service from some of the construction industry’s best tool brands, including Merlo lift hire Oxford.

Here at Helpful Hirings, we have a range of six different telehandlers available with our Merlo lift hire Oxford. So whatever site you’re working on – whether it’s around a block of flats  with limited space available, or a large industrial development – we’re bound to have the Merlo vehicle to meet your needs.

For those working in a confined space, the Merlo P26.6 lift would be the ideal lift to hire from us. The P26.6 comes with a maximum forward reach of 3.1metres and height reach of 6 metres.

If you’re working on a construction site or job where you need to lift a heavy weight to a height greater than either the P26.6 affords, then you have the option of the P36.10 P38.13, or even P40.16 so we’ll have a suitable Merlo lift available for hire.
If you require more forward reach the Merlo P35.13 or P40.17 should meet most requirements.

All of the Merlo lift hire Oxford that we have available here at Helpful Hirings are suitable to be used with either tipping skips, crane hooks or block grabs, so whatever your construction needs you can be certain that the Merlo lifts will have an accessory to meet most demands.

Insurance Considerations for Crane Hire

Thursday, January 13th, 2011

As with any work carried out within the construction trade, when hiring a crane there are a number of things that need to be taken into consideration, not only to ensure that the work carried out runs smoothly, on time and effectively but also to ensure that all relevant health and safety guidelines are adhered to whilst the crane is in your possession. It’s also of vital importance that you and the users of the crane are fully insured for all possible risks that come with crane hire Birmingham.

At Machinery Installation we’ve been hiring cranes to a range of customers from those working in the construction trade to domestic customers who are doing a bit of renovation and require the strength of a crane to help move materials. But before we allow one of our cranes to be transported out, we’ll always make sure that those who will be using it are fully insured.

This includes being covered for any loss or damage to the crane – something which can be extremely common on a busy building site, especially if the crane is used by someone who isn’t properly trained.

Along with being insured for any potential loss or damage to the vehicle during crane hire Birmingham it’s also important to have the right level of insurance for the job at hand. For example, if you’re hiring just a crane from us here at Machinery Installations, then all the work the crane does is under your responsibility and should something go wrong, it is again down to you.

Unlike hiring a car whilst on holiday, crane hire Birmingham isn’t just a case of picking up the phone and asking for one to be delivered. Instead there are a lot of things to take into consideration, but we’re here to guide you through the legal requirements quickly and easily. For more information about hiring a crane and the levels of insurance you’ll need, please feel free to give us a call.
