Operated Plant Hire with Expert Operators — 20+ Years of Experience
Orbital Equipment is one of the UK’s most trusted providers of operated plant hire, supplying a comprehensive range of machinery complete with skilled, experienced operators for construction, civil engineering, groundworks, and infrastructure projects of all sizes. Whether you need a single excavator with an operator for a day or a full fleet of plant for a long-term contract, our team is ready to mobilise quickly and keep your project on programme.
Operated plant hire gives you the confidence of knowing that every machine on your site is handled by a fully trained, competent operator — reducing risk, improving productivity, and removing the burden of sourcing and managing your own plant operatives. Our operators hold the relevant CPCS and NPORS cards for their respective machines and are experienced working across a wide variety of site conditions and project types.
Our operated plant hire fleet includes excavators ranging from 1.5-tonne micro diggers to large 50-tonne machines, dumpers, telehandlers, loading shovels, graders, rollers, and specialist attachments. Every machine is maintained to the highest standard, fully serviced, and compliant with current health and safety legislation, so you can focus on delivering your project rather than managing plant logistics.
