Increase the efficiency of your earthmoving project with dump truck hire today. Whether it's dirt, rubble, gravel, sand or even green waste, dump trucks provide an efficient way to move and transport materials to and from your working area.
Dump trucks are available in a variety of makes and models, and have varying load capacities depending on the type or truck you decide to hire. For smaller workloads, or job sites that might be trickier to navigate, think about hiring a swivel bucket dump truck.
As the name suggests, these trucks have a bin that can tip and swivel anywhere up to 180 degrees. This means your operators can drive up to the side of a tipping point rather than reversing up to it. Improving safety and making it easier to navigate around tight work areas. However, these models generally have a smaller capacity, around 5-8t, so you may need to make repeat trips if you are dealing with a large quantity of dirt or rubble.
Of course, there is dump truck hire available for heavier and larger loads as well. Dump trucks with bin capacity of 25t or more are the perfect choice for industrial settings like mine sites or waste facilities. These trucks will generally only have a reverse dump option and will require more space to operate in general.
However, they make up for this by being able to transport almost 4 times the amount of dirt, rubble or gravel, compared to a swivel dump truck. Most worksites will be designed to make full use of these dump trucks, creating specific roads or paths for you to drive to ensure you are able to efficiently move and dump your loads without wasting time.
If you're short on hands, or don't have the experience to operate a dump truck on your site, talk to your local hire company about their wet hire options. Wet hire will ensure your dump truck is operated by a trained and experienced professional, who will get your work done timely and efficiently. Of course, wet hire is generally more expensive than dry hire, but it is still more affordable than buying a new truck and hiring an operator for a single job.
Your dump truck hire can also come with delivery and pick-up if you're unable to get to the company to pick it up yourself. Simply discuss the dates with your hire company and they can organise delivery so your dump truck will be on site the day and time you need it.
