Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is wet hire in construction and mining?

    Wet hire involves hiring machinery together with a qualified and experienced operator. This removes the need to supply your own labour and ensures equipment is operated safely and correctly. Wet hire is commonly used on complex or remote sites where experience, efficiency and reliable operation are essential to keep work progressing smoothly.

  • Why choose wet hire instead of dry hire?

    Wet hire reduces responsibility for staffing, equipment maintenance and compliance requirements. It provides access to skilled operators who understand both the machinery and site conditions. This helps improve productivity, minimise downtime and reduce the risk of incorrect operation that can lead to delays or safety issues.

  • Is wet hire suitable for remote sites?

    Wet hire is highly suited to remote sites where skilled operators and reliable equipment may be difficult to source locally. Machinery and operators are prepared for challenging access and harsh conditions. This allows projects to maintain momentum and complete work efficiently even in isolated or demanding environments.
