The team at Plantman are fantastic and refurbished my CAT226b bobcat. It was done quickly and inspections were encouraged. They were flexible, accommodating, well priced and very approachable. Very high level customer service and technical skills. Hard to believe its the same machine. Highly recommend for all plant repairs.

The equipment was negotiated at a fair price and delivered on time. It was clean and performed well as expected. Plantman was great in advice and assistance when there were engine auto shutdown issues and we've been able to complete our project on time and within budget. If you're looking to hire equipment from Plantman I would recommend them, no doubt.

We recently used Plantman Equipment for the hire of a 20 tonne excavator. The excavator was in good condition and was supplied with the correct attachments for the job as agreed. We found the process very easy and the staff helpful while arranging the hire. I would be very happy in recommending Plantman for the hire of earthmoving equipment.
