Licensed scaffolder running your own crew? We supply quality kit on dry-hire terms — fast turnaround, fair rates, and a yard close by when you need to top up.
Dry-hire scaffold for licensed Sunshine Coast crews
If you're a ticketed scaffolder running your own jobs, dry hire is the most cost-effective way to scale capacity without buying more kit. We supply Layher, Acrow and equivalent ringlock and tube-and-fitting from our Sunshine Coast yard — by the day, the week or the month.
We don't compete with our dry-hire customers on installs. If you take kit off our yard, we won't quote against you on that job. That's been the rule since day one.
Indicative dry-hire rates
| System | Weekly rate | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Tube & fitting (per tonne) | $180 – $240 | Includes tubes, boards, fittings |
| Ringlock standards | $4 – $7 each | Layher / Acrow available |
| Boards (LVL, 2.4m) | $3 – $5 each | Inspection-ready stock |
| Stair towers (per lift) | $85 – $130 | Pre-assembled where requested |
| Loading bay kit | POA | Engineered to your design |
Trade accounts available with 30-day terms (subject to credit check). Cash on collection welcome for first-time hirers.

"Their yard is the closest one to my crews and they actually answer the phone. I've topped up at 6am on a Saturday more than once."
