Safety and operational certificates are machine-dependant in many cases, and our operators are experienced professionals in using every piece of machinery safely and productively.

We can take care of all equipment refuelling for a fee — if you prefer to do it yourself, we can let you know what type of fuel the equipment takes (usually diesel fuel) and show you how it’s done.
