Our petrol forward/reverse plate compactors are ideal for completing a wide range of compaction work on site. These vibrating plates have a compact design and excellent ergonomics for ease of use, low hand arm vibration and manoeuvrability. They have a 400mm plate, a robust petrol engine and, as these wacker plates are forward and reverse units, they feature a hydraulic gear shift mechanism that can be used for travelling in both directions. These plate compactors can be used for compacting soil, stone and hardcore before laying a concrete slab, for compacting asphalt during roadworks, for foundations, and backfilling in pipe trenches. You can book a petrol forward / reverse plate compactor hire online or over the phone and then either collect it from your nearest depot at the start of the hire or we can deliver it to you.
We have a range of accessories available for purchase, including super grip work gloves, ear defenders and Personal Protection Packs. Our Personal Protection Packs include safety goggles, safety gloves, dust mask and ear plugs. You can add these to your order during checkout.

From 1st April 2022, our suppliers will only fuel machines with white diesel. This is due to new government guidelines.
If you, as the hirer, refuel any equipment while it is in your possession, it must be with WHITE DIESEL.
YOU MUST NOT USE RED DIESEL IN HIRED MACHINES OR EQUIPMENT.
If you return a machine refuelled with rebated diesel, suppliers will have to remove and dispose of the fuel. They must also flush the tank and supply lines before they can refuel them. The process is chargeable, with no exceptions.
Hire Shield is included in every booking. The charge is calculated at checkout.
If you have your own Hired-In Plant Insurance (HIPI), you'll be asked to provide proof after booking. To opt out of Hire Shield, contact us via Live Chat.
When an unexpected expense crops up and you need to get hold of different equipment, the costs involved can become a struggle. Mammoth Hire don't think that anyone should have to wait when essential work and building improvements are needed, or when there's a passion project that needs indulgence.
To help our customers and make tool hire even easier, we've worked with PayPal to provide a way to spread the cost with PayPal Pay in 3. You can use Pay in 3 for eligible shopping cart amounts between £30.00 to £2,000.00. Terms apply.
The simple and efficient way of managing your tool and plant hire spend with discounted hire rates. No matter what the job, a trade account makes managing your cash flow a whole lot easier.
