From Lawns to Loaders: Summer Kit That Works as Hard as You Do
With longer days, better weather (sometimes!), and projects piling up, it’s the perfect time to get things done. Whether you're laying a patio, tackling overgrown lawns, or keeping cool at an event, Martin Plant Hire has your back with the right gear for the job.
Here’s what’s hot on hire this season:
Dig It: Excavators & Power Barrows
When the ground’s dry and days are long, it’s prime time for digging, trenching, or clearing up your garden project or build site.
- Excavators: Great for foundations, landscaping, and drainage work - summer’s dry soil makes digging easier and quicker.
- Power Barrows: Skip the sweat. These motorised wheelbarrows make light work of hauling soil, rubble, and gravel across your garden or site - no pushing required.
Site Staples: Dumpers, Plates & Mixers
From garden builds to small construction projects, summer is the season for doing.
- Dumpers: Ideal for shifting heavy materials around sunny (and often muddy) sites.
- Plate Compactors: Perfect for patios and paths - get that solid finish on freshly laid surfaces before the BBQs start.
- Concrete Mixers: Whether it’s setting posts or pouring bases, a mixer saves your arms - and time - in the summer sun.
Tool Time: Power Tools
No matter the task - drilling, sawing, grinding or breaking - our power tools let you get in, get it done, and get back to enjoying your summer.
- Ideal for both DIYers and pros taking advantage of dry weather to tackle outdoor projects.
Tidy Outdoors: Lawn Mowers
With the sun comes the growth - and your lawn’s not going to mow itself.
- Our heavy-duty Lawn Mowers are perfect for taming overgrown gardens, prepping event spaces, or keeping your kerb appeal fresh all summer long.
Stay Cool: Evaporative Coolers & Air Con Units
When the temperature rises, so does the need to keep people (and tempers) cool.
- Evaporative Coolers: Ideal for large, open indoor spaces or workshops with good airflow.
- Air Conditioning Units: Great for temporary offices, retail spaces, or summer events where comfort is key.
Stay productive, safe, and sweat-free - even in a heatwave.
