How to Save Money on Equipment Hire for Long-Term Projects Get More Value with ZELVi Equipment
When you’re running a long-term project, every dollar counts and keeping equipment hire costs down can make a big difference. Good news! There are smart ways to save without cutting corners. At ZELVi Equipment, we get it and want to make it easier for you. We know how important it is to have reliable, well-maintained machines for the job, and we work with competitive rates helping you get the best deal. Whether it’s construction, mining, or civil works, here’s how you can save money on long-term equipment hire while keeping things running smoothly on site.
1. Negotiate the Best Rates for Long-Term Hire
We love working with customers on long-term projects, and we’re happy to work out a deal when you need equipment for extended periods. Here’s how you can work with us:
• Ask About Discounts: Got a long project? Don’t hesitate to ask about better rates for long-term hire. At ZELVi, we’re flexible and we’ll work with you to create a pricing plan that fits your project timeline.
• Lock in Fixed Rates: One of the best ways to avoid unexpected costs is to lock in a fixed rate for the whole hire period. This way, you’ll know exactly what you’re paying, with no surprises down the line.
By locking in a great deal from the start, you’ll save yourself from budget headaches later on.
2. Bundle Equipment and Save More
Need more than one machine? Bundling is the way to go. Why hire machines separately when you can package them together and save?
• Get a Package Deal: When you hire multiple pieces of equipment from ZELVi, we’ll work out a bundled rate to save you money. Whether it’s an excavator, water truck, or prime mover, bundling means fewer delivery costs and better pricing.
• Cut Delivery Fees: Hiring from one place means fewer delivery trips, which cuts down on transport costs. Our fully insured transport services cover Perth and WA, so you’ll get reliable, hassle-free delivery every time.
Bundling equipment and streamlining delivery helps you keep more in your pocket while getting everything you need for the job.
3. Choose Well-Maintained Machines to Avoid Downtime
Nothing kills your budget faster than a machine breaking down mid-project. That’s why it’s important to hire well-maintained gear. At ZELVi, we pride ourselves on keeping our fleet in top condition so you can get the job done without delays.
• Well-Maintained Fleet: Our machines are regularly serviced, and we keep them running like new. This means fewer breakdowns, more uptime and zero worries about costly delays.
• High-Quality Equipment: We offer low-houred, reliable equipment that’s ready for action, so you can focus on the project, not the repairs.
With ZELVi, you get that peace of mind.
4. Opt for Dry Hire and Use Your Own Operators
Save even more by dry hiring—where you rent the machine but use your own operators—can be a great way to cut costs.
• Lower Hire Costs: When you go with dry hire, you’re only paying for the equipment, not the operator. That means a lower overall cost for the duration of the hire.
• Flexibility: If you’ve got trained operators on your team, dry hire gives you the flexibility to run things your way, on your schedule.
At ZELVi, we offer dry hire on all of our equipment, from excavators to water trucks. This lets you keep full control of your project while saving on hire fees.
5. Review Your Equipment Needs Regularly
As your project progresses, your equipment needs might change. To save money, it’s important to keep an eye on what’s actually being used and what’s sitting idle.
• Return Equipment Early: Don’t pay for machines you’re not using. If you finish with a piece of equipment early, return it and save yourself some hire costs.
• Adjust as Needed: Our hire agreements are flexible, so if you need to scale back or ramp up, we’ve got you covered dependent on availability.
Staying on top of your equipment usage helps avoid unnecessary charges, keeping your budget on track.
