About Us

What We Do

We’re all about sustainable, high-quality general equipment hire. That’s essentially what we do. But the Opt Hire definition of ‘equipment hire’ is different to other general hirers because our service includes a level of support and consultation that surpasses significantly on the industry standard.

We start every new customer relationship with the question: What’s the biggest problem you have that no one’s been able to solve? You get to throw us your toughest challenge and then we can show you why Opt Hire is different to other suppliers.

WHY WE DO IT

We do what we do because we want to change the way Australian construction companies and event industries manage sites – for the better! There are three rocksolid business pillars that help us achieve this vision: Support, Sustainability, Innovation.

SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainability is at the core of our business.

We believe in creating solutions that not only protect the environment but benefit the community and economy. This means incorporating principles of reuse, recycling and repurposing. It also means fostering innovation and ensuring economic viability.

  • Offering cleaner alternatives like electric, solar, battery and hybrid equipment.
  • Partnering with suppliers who prioritise sustainable practices and ensure proper equipment disposal or recycling.
  • Optimising operations to reduce water, energy and material consumption.
  • Ensuring ethical practices and contributing to the community.
  • Providing safe and ethical working conditions for employees and partnering with suppliers who uphold these values.
  • Investing in local initiatives and businesses, creating jobs and contributing to social wellbeing.
  • Building a long-term sustainable business model.
  • Minimising costs through the optimisation of resource usage and waste reduction.
  • Extending equipment lifecycles through preventative maintenance, repair and refurbishment.
  • Investing in sustainable solutions and adapting to changing environmental regulations.
  • Supporting sustainability reporting requirements.
For us, true sustainability goes beyond marketing messages. It’s about embedding responsible practices into our core operations – our DNA – and creating a positive impact on the environment, our communities and our long-term success.

INNOVATION

Innovation for us equates to finding the best solution for our clients’ challenges, not just the solution that’s readily available in the Australian marketplace. Opt Hire is your conduit to ground-breaking innovations from around the world that may not have been available to you before, or you possibly didn’t even know existed.

Take, as an example, the ever-problematic dust issues onsite. Dust suppression is usually contained through dribble bars from a water cart, continuously dripping water – not the most conservational or cost-efficient method for keeping dust under control. Our solution is to replace with trailer & skid mounted mist cannons, which emit fine sprays containing eco-friendly flocculent for keeping the dust down longer, or integrating purpose-built polymer spray trailers into our fleet. This results in any job site using less water and suppressing dust in a far more effective way. Simply better.

While we don’t create the equipment solutions from scratch, our global network means we’re tapped into the kind of innovation that can make a huge difference to the outcomes of your project, including your bottom-line, and do so with concerns around sustainability at top of mind.
