Our Excavator Hire FAQs
Learn more about our excavator hire process and all the products, services and the team behind Chippindale.
01 How do I start the excavator hire process?
If you’re interested in our mini or large excavator hire, you can simply click “add to cart” next to the excavator that you’re interested in hiring, then fill out a short form. This includes letting us know if you’d prefer a phone call, email, or you’re more than welcome to drop into one of our depots between 8am and 5pm if you prefer to do things in person. After this, one of our team will be in touch to talk through the different options and to help you arrange the hire, as well as other machinery, attachments, site equipment or tool hire if required.
Once you’re happy with the solution in place, the following process can start:
First you’ll need to fill out a new account set up form if you’re a new customer. We will also require your ‘hired-in plant insurance’, or if you don’t have it, we can provide you with HireSecure cover for an additional 20% charge. The account set up takes 1-2 days to get sorted, but if you’re working on a deadline, we’ll do our best to get it sorted ASAP.
Once everything is in place, we can finalise your hire details and appoint an account manager. They will know every detail of your project and will be available throughout the hire process to assist you with any requirements or questions.
Your excavator hire equipment will then be delivered to your destination by a trained engineer who will set everything up, ensuring you’re cooking with gas before leaving.
Live hire reports and other reporting information can be arranged throughout the hire, on a weekly basis, which are particularly useful for large construction sites. All of our reporting and invoicing features are designed to make life easy.
You can keep the equipment for as long as you need, and once you’re finished, simply give us a call and we can collect it. We will pause all charges, have a de-brief to ensure you’re fully satisfied with your experience and then return all equipment to our depot for another full service.
Prior to delivery, every excavator available for hire is fully serviced, ensuring a fully safe, reliable and efficient performance. We service our machinery more than twice as often as the industry standard to give you confidence, so you know when you choose Chippindale for your large or mini excavator hire, you are getting the very best quality machinery.
Once the equipment has been delivered by our team, they will be on hand throughout the duration of the excavator hire if you have any questions, queries or problems. Our focus throughout the excavator hire process is to make everything as simple for you as possible, from the initial enquiry right through to the collection at the end.
02 Do you offer full site setups along with the excavator hire?
Yes, we do. Along with our large and mini excavator hire, we have one of the UK’s largest fleets of plant machinery, from telehandlers to mixers and vibrating plates to dumpers. We also have a vast range of attachments for our plant machinery, along with tool and light equipment hire. Along with the machinery itself, we can provide full site equipment, including fully equipped site cabins, storage units, toilets and furniture. We are a one-stop shop for construction sites with every type of machinery, tool, attachment and accommodation required for your project, and we can deliver everything directly to you, with easy reporting and management to make your life easy.
03 What types of excavator attachments are available to hire?
Our range of excavator attachments is expansive, stocking the leading brands to make sure only the best results can be achieved. When you enquire about our excavator hire, our team of experts with an extensive excavator attachment knowledge can provide advice on the right choices for the solution you’re looking for, or simply arrange the hire for you if you know which attachments you require. The range includes crushing buckets, steel shears, augers, clamshell buckets, hydraulic breakers and everything in between from construction to agricultural industries. The attachments that you choose along with the excavator hire will all be delivered and calibrated by our team on your site (free of charge), so you can get started on your project as soon as we leave. Our fleet includes a significant number of head brackets, so our attachments are suitable to fit any excavator you choose to hire.
04 What makes Chippindale’s mini and large excavator hire different?
The main elements that set our mini and large excavator hire apart from the rest, is the vast range of our fleet, the latest premium excavators only from industry leading brands and also our award-winning customer care standards.
We service our machinery for excavator hire more than twice the industry average (after every hire), always ensuring that every excavator, attachment, tool or piece of equipment is not only extremely safe, but provides the best results possible. With over 70 years of experience and one of the largest privately owned fleets in the UK, we are best positioned to find the right and most efficient solution for your project.
Another main focus for us is our customer care, starting out as a small family business and growing to a team of over 120, whilst always keeping our core values at the centre of everything we do. We always have the time and capacity to provide you with the best solution for any project, whether you want one excavator to hire or machinery for a full-scale blue-chip site. You won’t be put through to a sales team, but one of our experts who can assist you throughout the excavator hire process. They know the business, industry, and our machinery, through and through with our hire desks having a vast collective experience to add value to your projects, so we are confident that you will be more than satisfied with the end result.
