Prime Mover Hire Perth. The Muscle On The Road.
The prime mover is the muscle behind every heavy load on the road, and the right one keeps your freight moving on time. With over 35 years of combined industry experience, we source the right prime mover for your task, so your gear and your loads get where they need to be without the drama.
What Can A Prime Mover Pull?
- ✓Single trailer work for general freight and local haulage
- ✓Heavy haulage prime movers rated to pull loaded floats and oversize loads
- ✓Road train rated units for long-haul and remote WA routes
- ✓Day cab or sleeper configurations to suit the run
The Drive Unit Of The Whole Combination
A prime mover is the powerful truck that pulls trailers, floats and containers. It provides the drive and the coupling, while the trailer behind it carries the load. Match the right prime mover to the trailer and the load and you have a haulage combination built for the job.
Built To Pull, Not Just Drive
Not Just The Truck. The Whole Combination.
A prime mover is often the machine that does the moving, but if you need one delivered or you are buying, we sort that too. Tell us your loads and routes and we will match the right unit, and the right trailer or float to go with it.
Should You Hire Or Buy A Prime Mover?
For a contract or a peak, hiring keeps your fleet flexible. For steady haulage, ownership may pay off. We source new or used at the right price.
Hire
- Suits a contract or a seasonal peak
- No resale or ongoing maintenance to manage
- Matched to the trailer for the specific job
Buy
- Makes sense for steady, ongoing haulage
- New or used, sourced brand agnostic
- One cost instead of ongoing hire rates
