Hire a sweeper and you won’t look back

If you clean up with a sweeper, you won’t look back. That’s because sweepers offer a quick and easy way to clean up and reduce dust on roads, yards and your worksite.

A sweeper is a tractor or sometimes truck fitted with a large brush. They are used to sweep roadways, pavements, parking areas, yards or driveways to keep them clean and clear of debris and dust.

Some sweepers come with special dust suppressing systems that allow them to minimise dust while clearing up.

Need to clean up? Hire a Sweeper

A sweeper is great in construction work because it makes quick and easy work of cleaning up, keeping a site tidy, and minimising dust (a recognised environmental hazard).

Keeping dust to a minimum is often a challenge for construction, roading and utility companies – especially in dryer, windier months. It’s also a requirement if you’re working in densely populated areas.

A Master Sweeper is the ideal tool for the job. It’s designed to clean large areas efficiently while minimising dust.

What do you need your sweeper to do?

Choosing a sweeper with the right features will help you achieve the best results. Consider the size of the area you want to keep clean, the environment you’re working in – whether it’s open road or a built up area, the skill level of the operator, and the weather conditions.

Hire a sweeper and get on top of dust suppression

If you’re planning to use a sweeper in a built up area it’s a good idea to look for one that has a dust suppression system included. That means you can use the sweeper’s water supply and jets to wet the surfaces you’re sweeping and keep dust to a minimum.

Remember to take a close look at tank size to make sure you won’t end up having to stop and fill the tank as you stay on top of your dust levels.

Got a tight space to clean? Hire a Master Sweeper

Depending on the area you’re working in – manoeuvrability is often important. Hiring a sweeper like the Master Sweeper, that can work around awkward or small spaces, will help you manage the job from the comfort of your cab rather than doing it by hand.

Using a Sweeper shouldn’t be hard work

The sweeper you choose should be easy to operate. Being able to lower the brush properly will help you manage brush wear – reducing the frequency of brush replacement which is a key cost factor when operating a sweeper.

Easy operation will also allow your driver to get the job done faster, deliver better results and sweep up in more challenging spaces.

Don’t forget the air conditioned cab to keep your operator happy

Sweepers are often needed to clean up in hot and dry conditions. When you look for the right features for a sweeper it’s important to take operator comfort into consideration.

Does your sweeper feature an air conditioned cab and will your operator be comfortably operating it for long periods of time? If in doubt – hire the Master Sweeper. It’s got all the features you need to ensure your operator is happy and the job’s done well.

How do you get a sweeper to your worksite?

Hiring the right sweeper means being able to transport it easily using the equipment you have available. Some sweepers may need to be delivered to your worksite if they are too big to fit on a trailer or the back of a truck.

The Master Sweeper comes on its own trailer, allowing it to be towed behind your ute. Find out more about the Master Sweeper here.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO HIRE A SWEEPER?

Contact us today to find out how much it costs to hire the Master Sweeper, anywhere in New Zealand.

Hire costs for sweepers vary across New Zealand but one of the most important costs to be aware of is the cost of broom replacement. As a sweeper is operated it slowly wears the broom down. Whether you own or hire a sweeper, you will be responsible for the cost of replacing the broom once it’s worn out.

To reduce the cost of broom replacement, look for a sweeper that features a long life broom and is easier to operate. Being able to operate the sweeper effectively will help to make the broom last longer – as will any system that’s been designed to extend the broom’s life.
