Quick Answer
When choosing an excavator hire company in NSW, compare: machine condition, delivery included vs extra, online booking availability, operator support, and transparent pricing.
## How to Choose an Excavator Hire Company in NSW With dozens of equipment hire companies in NSW, here's what separates a good hire experience from a bad one. ### 1. Machine Condition Ask how old the fleet is. Late-model machines (under 5 years) are more reliable, have better safety features, and are easier to operate. BuildHire's fleet is predominantly Yanmar machines under 3 years old. ### 2. Delivery Included or Extra? Many hire companies charge extra for delivery — or require you to self-collect. Delivery and collection are quoted for your site and hire dates. ### 3. Online Booking Can you book online in minutes, or do you need to call and wait for a quote? BuildHire offers online booking in 60 seconds. ### 4. Transparent Pricing Are prices published online, or do you need to request a quote? BuildHire publishes all hire rates online. ### 5. Operator Support What happens if you have a problem on site? BuildHire provides 24/7 phone support for customers. ### 6. Insurance Is the machine covered by the hire company's insurance, or do you need your own? BuildHire's machines are covered by our fleet insurance.
