Equip Hire & Contracting is a family-owned equipment hire business based at 224 Kelly Rd, Modbury Heights, SA 5092. They specialise in providing dry hire excavators and tipper trucks for residential, commercial, and civil construction projects across Northern Adelaide and surrounding regions. The company offers both wet hire with experienced operators and dry hire options to suit different project needs.

The business offers same-day delivery for most equipment across the Adelaide metropolitan area, subject to availability. For urgent needs, customers are advised to call directly as the team will do their best to accommodate requests. Flexible hire periods are available, ranging from hours to months depending on the project scope.

No special licence is required to operate the excavators as they are all under 6 tonnes and intended for private property use. The company performs a full handover at delivery and provides phone support anytime during the hire period. Customers can contact the owner, Jack Langley, directly for assistance throughout the rental.

Prices for mini excavators start from $200 per day, with weekly rates of $750 for the 1.8T model and $900 for the 2.5T model. Tipper trailers are available for $400 per week, while the 3.5T tipper truck costs $775 per week when hired alone. The excavator and tipper combo package is priced at $375 per day or $1,500 per week.

The fleet includes mini excavators ranging from 1.7 tonne to 2.5 tonne, such as the JCB 18Z and Yanmar ViO17. Tipper trailers suitable for projects of all sizes are also part of the inventory. Additional attachments like rippers, sleeper grabs, and hydraulic augers can be rented to extend capabilities.

The service area covers Northern Adelaide, Salisbury, Gawler, Adelaide Hills, Barossa Valley, and Glenelg & Western regions. The company also provides container transport services for 20ft and 40ft shipping containers throughout Adelaide and regional South Australia.

A 20ft shipping container move typically costs from $175 for a short local move up to around $800 for longer metro or regional runs. A 40ft container requiring a sideloader ranges from about $350 up to $1,200+ depending on distance and site conditions.

The company was founded by someone with years of experience as a diesel mechanic maintaining earth-moving and machinery equipment. This hands-on background ensures the machinery is well-maintained and reliable for customer projects.
