Crushing & Screening Equipment Hire in Perth Northern Suburbs

Crushing & screening hire in Perth northern suburbs

The northern corridor is where a lot of Perth's crushing plant lives. The Wangara and Neerabup industrial areas are home to plant hire yards and crushing contractors, and the limestone quarries around Neerabup, Nowergup and further north keep a steady demand for mobile jaws, impactors and screens. Land development from Alkimos to Two Rocks adds site-won limestone crushing and topsoil screening on top of that.

Hiring from an owner already based in the north keeps the float short. Listings show the suburb the machine is kept in and how far the owner will deliver, so you can find plant within a few kilometres of a Yanchep or Joondalup job rather than bringing it up from Kwinana.

What you can hire

The crushing and screening gear listed on Ultihire is the same kind of plant you would get from a specialist hire fleet: tracked jaw crushers for primary reduction, cone and impact crushers for secondary and tertiary work, two- and three-deck inclined screens, scalping screens for oversize and topsoil, and radial or tracked stackers to move product away from the plant. Most of it is owned by quarry operators, recyclers and civil contractors who have a machine sitting between jobs.

Because the owner writes the listing, you see the specifics that matter — make and model, jaw or chamber size, deck size and mesh available, hours on the machine, whether it is mine-spec, and what it costs to get it to site. You deal directly with the person who runs it.

How hiring works on Ultihire

Search by machine type and location, open a listing, and send the owner a request with your dates. The owner accepts or declines. Once accepted you have their contact details and the two of you settle the hire agreement, rate, bond and transport directly. Ultihire charges a booking fee for making the connection and does not mark up the daily rate.

That is deliberately simpler than a traditional hire desk. There is no minimum fleet commitment, no account application, and no waiting for a quote that has to be approved by someone in another state.

Dry hire, wet hire and what to check

Most listings are dry hire — you supply the operator, fuel and daily servicing. Some owners offer wet hire with an operator, or a commissioning day to set the plant up and prove the product spec. Check which one you are looking at, and confirm who is responsible for transport permits, float bookings and wear parts before you accept.

Ask for the last service record and the hours on the machine. On a crusher, ask about manganese condition (jaw dies, cone mantle and concave, blow bars) because a set that is 80% worn will cost you production during the hire. On a screen, ask what media is fitted and whether the owner can supply spare decks in the aperture you need.

Got a crusher or screen sitting idle?

Every week a machine sits in the yard between contracts it is depreciating for nothing. Listing on Ultihire is free. You set the daily rate, the minimum hire, the bond and where you are prepared to send it, and you accept only the requests you want. The hire contract stays between you and the renter.
