Mining
From remote exploration camps to full-scale production sites, mining operations need infrastructure that’s tough, compliant, and ready to move when necessary.
At Opt Hire, we deliver flexible equipment hire solutions built for the demands of modern mining, helping you power through every stage of the project, from setup to shutdown.
Powering Australia’s Mining Operations
As the backbone of Australia’s export economy, it’s certainly not showing any signs of slowing down. From iron ore and coal to lithium, rare minerals, and more, the mining industry keeps the country running. But behind every mine site, whether it’s open-cut, underground, or remote exploration, is an operation that needs the right infrastructure.
At Opt Hire, we support mining operations across Australia with scalable, site-ready hire solutions. Power, lighting, sanitation, access control, essentially, whatever’s needed to get the job done safely and efficiently. Whether you're ramping up production, expanding a site, or navigating shutdowns and maintenance, we’re here to back you with practical equipment and dedicated support.
The Demands of Modern Mining
Modern mining sites run like cities, requiring constant access to power, water, communication, and temporary facilities, often in harsh, isolated locations with extreme weather and difficult terrain. Add to that tight project timelines, rigorous safety compliance, and environmental obligations, and you’ve got an industry that can't afford to slow down.
We understand the pressures mining operators face, including but not limited to:
- Working towards strict production targets.
- Operating in remote or off-grid regions.
- Managing multiple contractors and subcontractors.
- Meeting rigorous environmental, safety, and site compliance standards.
- Balancing sustainability goals with high-output infrastructure demands.
Whether it’s supporting a temporary workforce with necessary accommodation and sanitation, or powering an exploration site in regional Queensland, we tailor our equipment hire to fit your timeline and operational needs.

Sustainable Solutions for Smarter Mining
Sustainability is built into every part of modern mining. We’re helping mining operators reduce emissions, cut energy use, and make smarter choices with a growing fleet of eco-friendly hire options.
According to research by Reuters, major mining companies are increasingly focusing on replacing diesel with renewable energy and pioneering technologies, striving to achieve net zero emissions by 2030.
From solar-powered lighting towers that save on fuel, to hybrid generators that reduce load waste, we supply equipment that supports cleaner operations without compromising performance.
We're committed to reducing waste and improving water efficiency by supplying water pump units and low-consumption sanitation solutions, ideal for camps and remote locations
