Description

This Trench Compactor Excavator Attachment comes pre setup on our Kubota 5.5 Ton Excavators.
Miniquip offers the APA 55/46 excavator compactor attachment for hire, ideal for mid-sized machines up to 12 tonnes. This attachment is designed for optimal performance and safety, featuring a twin-shaft directional exciter with high frequency and low amplitude to protect both the excavator and surrounding structures. The hydraulic design eliminates the need for a separate power source, minimizing maintenance and maximizing uptime.

With a patented vibration limitation system, the APA 55/46 directs forces towards the ground, shielding the excavator and operator from excessive vibrations. The robust design, including a protective housing and durable wear-resistant steel base plates, ensures longevity and reliability even under demanding conditions. Compatible with standard adapters and quick coupling systems, this compactor can be easily attached and ready for operation within seconds, enhancing productivity on any job site.

Miniquip operates its own dedicated fleet of tilt-tray trucks and heavy transport trailers, ensuring your hire equipment arrives on site safely, on time, and ready to work. Operating directly out of our central facility at 14 Roos Avenue, Forrestdale, we provide comprehensive transport logistics across metropolitan Perth and regional Western Australia.

  • Flexible Delivery Windows: To fit around your site schedule, we offer early morning drop-offs before site start times as well as late afternoon deliveries so your machinery is staged and ready for the next day.
  • Rapid Metro Mobilisation: With our in-house transport fleet, we frequently accommodate same-day delivery requests across the Perth metro area.
  • Depot Self-Collection: Prefer to haul it yourself? Self-collection is available directly from our Forrestdale yard during operating hours. Ensure your vehicle or trailer meets the required towing and payload capacities for the machine.

When you dry hire from Miniquip, you get complete backing from an experienced Western Australian team with over 35 years in compact earthmoving. Every machine in our modern fleet undergoes rigorous mechanical checks, hydraulic testing, and thorough cleaning in our Forrestdale workshop before dispatch.

1. How quickly can I get equipment delivered to my job site?

We manage our own dedicated transport fleet, allowing us to offer flexible, fast turnaround times. In many cases across metropolitan Perth, we can arrange same-day delivery. We also schedule early morning drop-offs so your crew can hit the ground running at first light. Contact our team on 1300 222 558 to confirm immediate machinery availability.

2. Why should I choose dry hire over wet hire for my project?

Dry hire gives you total control over your project timeline, site safety, and budget. You operate the machinery using your own qualified team without paying high hourly rates for outsourced operators. Miniquip specialises exclusively in dry hire, providing late-model, workshop-tested equipment on flexible daily, weekly, or long-term rates.

3. What happens if I need to extend my hire period or return early?

We understand civil and construction project timelines change due to weather or scope shifts. Extending your hire is as simple as calling or emailing our team before your scheduled completion date. If your project finishes early, simply contact us to arrange prompt site pickup or yard return.

4. How do I book machinery, and what information do I need to provide?

Booking is straightforward. You can request a quote online or speak directly with our Perth booking team on 1300 222 558. All we need is your site location, preferred delivery date and time, expected hire duration, and machinery requirements. We will provide an itemised, competitive quote with no hidden extras.
