Exeter · Exmouth · Torbay · Operated plant
The whole fleet.Priced in 90 seconds.
Thirty-five years of plant, tools and equipment hire across Devon — from a 1-tonne micro digger to the JCB 220X. Now you can size the machine, see the price and get your quote away without waiting for the hire desk to pick up.
Why this page exists
Your hire desk is brilliant.
It just can't be open all week.
The Exeter, Exmouth and Torbay desks are open 50 and a half hours a week. There are 168 hours in a week. For the other 117 and a half, a customer who wants a digger for Monday has nowhere to go but a competitor who takes the order online.
Every rate is a phone call
On every machine page on the current site, the price question is answered the same way:
“What is the cost of hiring an Excavator? Please contact our hire desk on 01392 274654 or hiredesk@toolcarehire.co.uk to request a personalised quote.”
Meanwhile the sales page carries eighteen exact prices — £521 for a Stihl MS271, £4,950 for a Wacker DPU 3050H. The kit you sell is priced. The kit you hire isn't.
Every rate is a page
The customer answers the same three questions your hire desk asks — what's the job, what's the access, how deep — and the site recommends the machine, prices it, adds delivery and sends you the request with everything filled in.
You still set every rate. You still confirm every quote. You just stop being the search engine.

How hiring works
Four steps. No hold music.
Landscaping, footings, civils, demolition, work at height. The same question the hire desk opens with.
Access width, ground conditions and dig depth narrow it to the right band — micro, mini, midi or standard.
Day and week rates, attachments, delivery zone and damage waiver — itemised as you go.
The request lands at your depot with everything filled in. The hire desk confirms the firm quote.
