Built for you

Built for every kind of mini excavator hire business

Owner builders and landscapers

A homeowner digging footings for a deck hires the machine for a Saturday with a 300 bucket, sees the attachment price before they book, and does not have to ring anybody to find out what a bucket costs.

Plumbers and drainers

A drainer needing a trencher for two days books the machine and the attachment together, and the hire is one window with a start and an end rather than a rolling arrangement nobody closes.

Fencing and post-hole work

A fencer hiring the machine with an auger every few weeks builds a record of hires, so the pricing they got last time and the attachments they always take are there when they ring again.

Schedule

One machine, one site, one window

A machine committed from Tuesday to Thursday cannot be given to anyone else inside it, and the day view shows the float runs either side so the week is a plan rather than a series of phone calls.

Instant booking

The weekend as its own block

Friday to Monday is a named block with the price you decided on it, not three days at a day rate. The customer picks it off the page with the buckets and augers they want and pays what it says.

Get paid

The walk-around sits on the job

Hours on the meter, the state of the tracks and pins, written against the booking at handover and again on return, so a conversation about a damaged blade has two dated notes behind it.

Less admin, more bookings

Made for mini excavator hire businesses

The machine, the float and what goes on the end of it

Attachments are not extras you remember, they are lines on the hire with their own prices. Buckets, augers, breakers and rippers all go on the same booking, so the total the customer agrees to and the gear that gets loaded on the float describe each other.

Friday to Monday, priced as a weekend

A weekend hire is its own thing, and it should have its own stored price rather than being three days at a day rate or one day at a favour. Set it up as a named block, put the price on it, and the customer picks the weekend off the page and pays the number it says.

The walk-around, on the job

What the tracks looked like, the hours on the meter, the state of the pins. Write it against the booking at handover and write it again on return, and the conversation about the damaged blade has two dated notes behind it instead of two memories.

One site at a time

A machine committed from Tuesday to Thursday cannot be given to anyone else inside that window, and the system will not let it happen. That sounds obvious until the third phone call of a busy week, which is exactly when it stops being obvious.

Common questions.

Yes. Buckets, augers and breakers go on the hire as their own priced lines, so the customer chooses them as they book and the total moves accordingly.

Set the weekend up as a named fixed block with its own price. It is not the day rate multiplied, it is the figure you decided, and it is what the customer is charged.

On the booking itself, against that hire and that customer. When the machine comes back, the return notes go on the same record, so both ends of the story sit in one place.

No, and that is the point. Each machine is its own bookable unit and an overlapping hire on it is refused outright, so a Tuesday to Thursday hire closes those days on that machine for everyone.
