Kennards Hire Has More Equipment Than You Realise

It’s likely that when you think of Kennards Hire, what probably comes to mind is a trusted supplier of essential equipment and machinery that make tasks easier and more efficient. For years, Kennards Hire has been the go-to for tradies across the nation, offering everything from power tools and digging equipment to scaffolding and specialist lifting gear. 

But did you know that whether you’re tackling a straightforward DIY project at home, a complicated trade job, or even a complex, large-scale commercial project, Kennards Hire has more equipment than you realise?

 

Supporting Commercial Success

It’s not just individual DIY enthusiasts or sole trader tradies who reap the benefits of Kennards Hire’s sizable equipment range — large-scale commercial project managers also turn to the Australian family-owned business for expert advice and solutions. 

Need forklifts to transport materials on-site? Consider it sorted. Looking for temporary fencing, crowd barriers, or lighting for an event? They’ve got you covered. And when it comes to accessing hard-to-reach spots with scaffolding or elevated work platforms, Kennards Hire has gear that prioritises safety and flexibility for any size team.

For tradespeople operating in high-pressure or demanding industrial environments, Kennards Hire’s combination of equipment and technical advice ensures that tight deadlines and budgets are met with reliability and safety from the get-go. 

 

Major Project: Nepean Hospital 

John Woods, Area Manager at Kennards Hire, reflects on the company’s involvement in the Nepean Hospital redevelopment project in Western Sydney, saying, “This extensive redevelopment - one of the largest and most enduring projects in Penrith – has benefited from Kennards Hire’s extensive range of equipment since the project kicked off in 2018.”

“Our general hire network has supplied essential equipment and machinery, including demo saws, hammers, pressure washers, air compressors, excavators, and concrete grinders, ensuring seamless progress throughout the project.”

“Additionally, our Pump & Power specialist team provided 24/7 power solutions during critical transformer upgrades. The site was equipped with versatile generators—ranging from 250kVA sync sets and stand-alone 500kVA units to robust 1250kVA systems—along with external fuel tanks and timely fuel deliveries to maintain uninterrupted site operations.”

Providing specialist equipment and expert advice on such large-scale projects highlights just how far Kennards Hire has come from just hiring out concrete mixers, lawn mowers and trailers (which they still do!) to delivering industry-leading solutions for projects of all sizes and complexities.
