Plant Hire Services

Overview

Reliable Equipment. Skilled Operators. Local Support Across NSW.

At Oldknow Earthmoving & Haulage, we offer a comprehensive plant hire service for civil contractors, mine operators, councils, and private developers across the Hunter Valley. Whether you need a single machine for a short-term job or multiple units for a long-term project, we supply the gear and the people to get it done properly.

We understand that downtime costs money. That’s why all our machinery is well-maintained, mine-compliant, and ready to work. Our operators are fully licensed, experienced, and trained to operate in high-risk environments with professionalism and attention to safety.

Plant Available For Wet Hire

We provide a wide range of equipment for wet hire, including:

  • Excavators (5T–45T) – With a full range of attachments
  • Dozers – Equipped with GPS for precision earthworks
  • Articulated and rigid dump trucks – For haulage across mines and civil sites
  • Graders – Ideal for roads, pads, and drainage shaping
  • Loaders – For quarry work, materials handling, and bulk loading
  • Scrapers – For efficient large-scale earthmoving
  • Water carts and compactors – Dust control and compaction
  • Tippers and truck and dogs – For material delivery and equipment transport

All machines are serviced regularly and supported by our in-house maintenance team, minimising the risk of breakdowns on your site.

Experienced Operators. Local Knowledge.

Our operators don’t just run the machines—they bring valuable field experience to every job. From final trim grading to safe work around mine faces, they work efficiently and communicate clearly with your site supervisors to keep projects moving. We’re familiar with the terrain, conditions, and compliance needs of sites across NSW and understand the demands of working in active mine pits, road corridors, rural blocks, and remote access locations.
