Plant & Equipment
HBG secures exclusive plant hire rates through our network of equipment partners. Whether you need a machine on its own or a complete wet hire package with one of our operators, we deliver the right gear to your site — fast and at the right price.
The HBG Advantage
Why juggle separate hire companies and labour agencies? HBG brings it all together. Dry hire a machine at our negotiated rates, then add a skilled HBG plant operator — ticketed, inducted, and ready to go. One invoice, one contact, zero hassle.
Machine type, size, site location, and start date. We respond same day with availability and pricing.
We lock in the best-priced machine from our partner network and pair it with a qualified HBG operator if required.
Machine and operator arrive inducted and work-ready. Managed end-to-end by HBG with digital dockets and consolidated invoicing.
Our Network
HBG works daily with some of Australia’s largest plant and equipment suppliers. Because we move volume every week, we know who has machines available, where they are, and when they can be on your site — often before you’ve finished making calls.
Consolidate your plant hire through HBG. Instead of managing accounts across multiple suppliers, deal with one person who handles sourcing, delivery, and invoicing.
We track fleet availability across our partner network in real time. Need a 14-tonne excavator in Western Sydney tomorrow? We can tell you in minutes, not days.
Our buying power means better pricing. We move enough plant weekly to negotiate rates that individual hire customers cannot access on their own.
Whether you need one machine for a day or a full fleet for a twelve-month civil project, HBG streamlines the entire process — sourcing, operators, compliance, and billing — so you can focus on building.
