Frequently Asked Questions

Truck with stacks of ground protection mats on it

01.How does your pricing work?

Most companies charge per mat, we do too. We rent our mats out for $1.80 + GST per day per mat.

No part day charges. Minimum one week charge (if the mats are returned before one week is up).

02.How many mats do I need?

To get an idea of the cost, measure the length of the area that you need to get vehicles or diggers across, divide it by 2.4 if you're using connectors or 2.3 if you're overlapping the edges of the mats.

Our mats can either be connected with a connector or the edges overlapped.

03.Is there a Minimum Hireage Period?

No not at all, we can accommodate any hireage period from one day to 6 months+.

We have a minimum charge of one week.

04.Can I pick up the ground protection mats?

Yes no problems at all. Just give us a call and we'll arrange a pick up day and time.

05.Do you charge a delivery fee?

Yes if we drop the mats off to site we charge a delivery fee. Our delivery fee starts at $90 + GST. The distance from our storage yard and number of mats are the main factors we take into account.

06.Can I drive a loaded truck or digger on these mats?

Yes definitely. Our mats are rated to 80 ton carrying capacity (solid sub-surface) so no problems there.

Larger excavators (especially with steel tracks) tend to damage the mats so these are not suitable for large excavators, however smaller machines with rubber tracks are fine to use.

07.Do i need to clean the mats before returning them?

We supply mats clean, if they come back dirty then a $5 per mat cleaning fee is charged. Alternatively you can water blast them yourself.
