Transparent Wet & Dry Hire Pricing

Getting a hire price shouldn’t leave you guessing. Our online calculator shows the exact equipment hire charge before you submit your request.

• Wet Hire (With Operator): Charged hourly with a minimum of 6 billable hours per machine, per day. Ideal for efficient production and complex excavations.
• Dry Hire (Without Operator): Available from a minimum of one day. The system automatically applies discounted weekly (7+ days) or monthly (28+ days) rates.

Transport Note: Delivery and collection are quoted separately before booking confirmation, as costs depend on machine size, site location, and access conditions.

Your Quote & Booking Process

Using our calculator is completely free. Here is how your quote turns into a confirmed booking:

• Review Your Quote: It clearly itemizes the excavator size, hire duration, applied rates, and GST.
• Submit Your Request: Selecting “Confirm & Request Booking” sends your details to our team. It does not reserve the machine automatically.
• Final Verification: Digmax will promptly check machine availability, calculate exact transport costs, and verify site access.
• Secure Your Booking: We will contact you with the final confirmation and request an upfront deposit (typically 5% to 15%) to lock in your machine.
