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.
