Question 1

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

$130/hr + GST + 18% fuel surcharge as a baseline. 4-hour minimum on every job. Half-day, full-day and project work quoted per job. Itemised invoice with GST-inclusive total — no hidden fees.

Question 2

What's the minimum hire?

Accepted Answer

4 hours. Most civil and commercial jobs run longer than that. If your job genuinely fits in under 4 hours, we'll still quote it — just at the 4-hour minimum.

Question 3

Do I need a licence to hire the truck?

Accepted Answer

No. Our HR-licensed operator drives the truck on every job — this isn't a self-drive rental. You just need clear site access and a hazard brief; we handle everything to do with the vehicle.

Question 4

What areas do you cover?

Accepted Answer

All Gold Coast suburbs from Tweed Heads to Coomera, plus surrounding areas. A travel surcharge may apply outside the metro area.

Question 5

Do you take small / one-off residential jobs?

Accepted Answer

Our focus is civil and commercial work. We'll consider larger residential or owner-builder jobs case-by-case — just call to discuss. Smaller one-off rentals or casual hire isn't our model.

Question 6

What if bad weather cancels the job?

Accepted Answer

We'll reschedule at no extra cost — just let us know at least 6 hours ahead. If we can't safely operate on the day, we work with you to find the next available slot.
