CONSTRUCTION AND EARTHMOVING EQUIPMENT
Access a broad fleet of professionally maintained heavy equipment — from excavators and TLBs to rollers, crushers, tipper trucks, and water trucks — at rates structured to keep your project budget intact. Every machine serviced in-house by our own diesel plant fitters and engine specialists.
THE CMKT DIFFERENCE
When you bring your machine to CMKT for repair, we loan you a replacement from our own fleet while yours is being worked on. If the repair is not completed within the agreed timeframe, the hire is free of charge. No other workshop in Gauteng makes this promise.
This is not a marketing line. It is a contractual commitment that removes the single biggest risk of plant repair — the open-ended timeline that leaves your project without the machine it needs. Bring your machine in. We give you a working replacement. We hold ourselves to the deadline we quote you.
OUR PLANT HIRE FLEET GAUTENG
Suited to bulk excavation, trenching, demolition clearance, and material handling. Mid-size units for residential development through to larger units for commercial or mining projects.
Among the most versatile machines on any construction site. Effective for digging trenches, loading material, and general site work — a well-maintained TLB from CMKT gives your crew the flexibility to handle multiple tasks with a single machine.
Land clearing, levelling, and bulk pushing operations. Capable of handling heavy vegetation clearing, large-scale grading, and stockpile management across a wide range of terrain types.
For confined spaces, indoor demolition, material handling in tight yards, or finishing work that a full-size excavator cannot reach. Compact, manoeuvrable, and powerful enough for most light-to-medium earthmoving tasks.
Essential for aggregate handling, bulk loading, and stockpile management on quarry, construction, and mining sites. Built to work hard in high-cycle applications.
Road building, gravel road maintenance, and site levelling. Well suited to contractors managing road construction, mining haul roads, and civil earthworks where final surface profiles must meet specification.
Deliver the compaction force required to meet civil engineering specifications. Ensures your layerworks pass density testing first time — for contractors who need reliable compaction equipment on time and on budget.
For aggregate production, site rubble processing, or sub-base material preparation. On-site crushing capability without the enormous capital cost of buying a crusher outright. Particularly valuable for roadworks and civil projects.
Dust suppression, compaction watering, and potable or process water delivery. Active construction and mining sites in Gauteng are legally required to manage dust — a reliable water truck keeps your site compliant and your crews working safely.
Material haulage — the backbone of any earthmoving operation. Moves spoil, aggregate, sand, crusher run, and fill material efficiently between stockpile, processing area, and tip-off points. Combining earthmoving and tipper capacity through a single supplier simplifies your logistics.
HOW IT WORKS
Contact CMKT on 074 578 3032 and describe your project requirements — the type of work, the machines you need, the project location, your required start date, and the anticipated hire duration. If you are unsure which machine best suits your application, our team will advise you.
For complex projects or large multi-machine deployments, CMKT may conduct a brief site assessment to confirm access routes, ground conditions, and any site-specific requirements before confirming the final equipment specification.
A written quotation setting out the hire rate, hire period, operator arrangements, fuel terms, and any mobilisation or demobilisation costs. The hire agreement is signed before any equipment leaves our yard.
Equipment prepared for dispatch, given a pre-delivery inspection, and transported to your site. CMKT aims to mobilise within the shortest practical timeframe — urgent requests are prioritised where fleet availability allows.
CMKT remains contactable during the hire period for any technical queries, operator concerns, or equipment issues. Our field breakdown response capability means a qualified technician can attend site if a mechanical problem arises.
At the end of the hire period, equipment is collected from site and returned for post-hire inspection and servicing. Hire charges are reconciled against the agreed contract and a final invoice is issued.
WHY CMKT PLANT HIRE
Every piece of equipment in the CMKT fleet is serviced by our own team. Diesel Plant Fitter Farai Zhou and Automotive Engine Fitter Clement Tapera lead a team with hands-on experience across Cummins, Caterpillar, John Deere, Mitsubishi, ISUZU, JCB, Deutz, Weichai, Doosan, and Tata engine families. Not simply signed off by someone who ticked a visual inspection checklist.
Hydraulic failure is one of the most common causes of downtime on hired plant. Our hydraulic component repair expertise means seals, cylinders, pumps, and motors are inspected and reconditioned before machines go out on hire. Full hydraulic capacity from day one.
Before deployment on a long-term hire, CMKT is able to dynamometer test diesel engines to verify power output and confirm that the machine will perform to its rated specification under load. This level of pre-hire verification is rare in the South African plant hire market.
If a CMKT hire unit develops a mechanical issue on your site, our field breakdown response capability means our own technicians can attend and assess — not a subcontracted mechanic who has never seen the machine before. This dramatically reduces the time between breakdown and resumption of productive work.
A direct call to CMKT reaches the people who make the decisions and manage the fleet — not a call centre. Speed matters in construction and mining, and CMKT is structured to respond at the speed your project demands.
PLANT HIRE PRICING GAUTENG
Pricing for machinery hire in Gauteng varies based on machine type, hire duration, site location, operator requirements, and the specific scope of work involved. CMKT does not publish a fixed rate card because no two projects are identical, and an honest quote must account for your actual circumstances.
Larger, more specialised equipment commands a higher daily rate than a compact TLB or bobcat. We help you select the right machine for the task — not the most expensive option.
Longer-term hire arrangements typically attract more competitive day rates than short-term spot hire. Discuss your anticipated programme duration when enquiring.
CMKT can provide a competent, experienced operator with each machine, or hire dry if your team supplies their own licensed operator.
Fuel cost arrangements are agreed upfront and stated clearly in every hire agreement. Mobilisation costs for projects further from our base are included transparently in the quote — never added as a surprise at invoice time.
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
Our Cummins QSL9 on a SANY excavator seized up mid-project on a site in Gauteng. CMKT had it overhauled and back on the dynamometer within two weeks. The written report showed the engine performing to specification. We put it back into service with full confidence.
What impressed me most was that they offered us a replacement TLB while our machine was in for a full engine overhaul. No downtime on our roadworks contract. The machine came back fully tested and has given us no trouble since. Proper professionals.
We needed a 10 ton roller and a tipper truck for a roadworks contract in Limpopo and could not afford downtime on either unit. CMKT sorted both engine issues, tested the rebuilt units, and provided written reports before handover. We completed the contract on schedule.
We deploy equipment from our Gauteng base to sites across South Africa. Whether you need a single machine for a local project or a multi-machine deployment on a regional contract, CMKT can mobilise to your site.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Yes. CMKT can provide a competent, experienced operator with each machine on request. Operator provision is discussed and agreed at the quotation stage. If your team supplies a licensed operator, we offer dry hire arrangements. All operator cost arrangements are stated clearly in the hire agreement upfront.
CMKT operates a field breakdown response capability. If a hire unit develops a mechanical issue on your site, our own qualified technicians attend and assess the problem — not a subcontracted mechanic. For issues that require workshop repair, we coordinate replacement equipment where fleet availability allows, minimising your downtime.
Hire periods are discussed and agreed at the quotation stage based on your project requirements. CMKT accommodates both short-term spot hire and longer-term contract arrangements. Contact us to discuss your specific programme and we will structure the hire accordingly.
Mobilisation speed depends on fleet availability and your site location. For urgent requests, contact CMKT directly on 074 578 3032 — we respond at the speed the project demands, and in many cases can mobilise faster than a large national hire house where your job is one of hundreds in a system.
Yes. CMKT can supply combinations of machines — for example, excavators, tipper trucks, and a water truck together for a bulk earthworks package. Multi-machine deployments are quoted as a package with clear pricing for each unit and any coordination arrangements required.
Tell us what your project needs. We will match the machine, quote transparently, and mobilise quickly. CMKT plant hire backed by in-house engine and hydraulic expertise.
