Operated Plant Hire Across Hampshire
From a 2.6 tonne mini digger to a mobile concrete crusher, our fleet comes with the people who run it every day. Book by the day, with a one day minimum.
Why Choose Operated Plant Hire
When you hire a machine on its own, the machine is only part of the cost. You still need to find a competent driver, arrange transport, sort out insurance and take on the risk if anything goes wrong. On a busy job, that adds time, money and hassle.
With Beere & Sons, you book the machine and the operator together. Our operators use the same machines every week on our own groundworks and construction projects, so they know exactly how to get the best from them. The job gets done faster and to a higher standard, and you only deal with one company.
- One booking, one team. Machine, operator and attachments arranged in a single call.
- Experienced operators. The same people who run our own groundworks jobs.
- The right kit for the job. We’ll recommend the machine and attachments that suit your site.
- No learning curve. No time lost getting to grips with an unfamiliar machine.
- Less risk. No inexperienced driver on your site and no damage worries.
