HN Plant Hire supplies well-maintained Komatsu excavators for projects across Cambridge and the surrounding area. From our base near Ely, we support contractors, construction companies and independent operators who need dependable machinery, straightforward advice and flexible hire options.

Our current fleet includes Komatsu PC138 and PC210 excavators. Machines are regularly inspected and maintained, and hire can be arranged driverless or with a qualified driver where required. If you are unsure which excavator is better suited to the site, access or scale of your project, speak to us before booking and we will help you choose the most appropriate option.

Excavator hire for Cambridge construction projects

Plant requirements vary considerably from one project to another. A machine that is suitable for bulk earth-moving may be unnecessarily large for a restricted site, while an undersized excavator can slow down work and increase the number of movements required. HN Plant Hire focuses on robust Komatsu excavators suitable for active construction environments and can help match the available machine to the job.

Our plant is used by commercial contractors as well as smaller independent teams working on domestic and local construction projects. Typical requirements can include excavation, site preparation, moving material and other earth-moving tasks where dependable tracked machinery is essential.

Komatsu PC138 and PC210 excavators

HN Plant Hire currently operates Komatsu PC138 and PC210 excavators. Both are proven construction machines, but the right choice depends on the working area, access, ground conditions and the amount of material that needs to be moved. Rather than presenting every project as the same hire, we encourage customers to discuss the job so that the machine supplied is appropriate for the work planned.

Operated or driverless plant hire

Customers can arrange excavator hire on a driverless basis or request a machine with a qualified driver. Driverless hire can suit contractors who already have the right operator available, while operated hire can be useful when the project needs both the machine and someone suitably qualified to run it. Availability can vary, so it is worth discussing the project dates and operating requirements when requesting a quote.
