Machinery Hire

Operated Machinery Hire to Support Site Clearance and Infrastructure Delivery

As site clearance and infrastructure programmes ramp up across the UK, many contractors, developers and facilities managers face the same challenge. Workloads increase, programmes tighten, and the right people and plant are not always available when they are needed most.

At Beechwood Trees and Landscapes Ltd, we support our clients through these peak periods by providing operated specialist machinery, backed by competent, qualified and experienced operators. This is not dry hire. It is a fully supported service designed to integrate seamlessly into your project and help you maintain momentum when it matters most.

Supporting Busy Programmes Without Compromising Standards

Whether the requirement is early-stage site clearance, vegetation management, infrastructure enabling works or ongoing asset maintenance, access to the right machinery can make a significant difference to productivity, safety and overall programme efficiency.

Our operated machinery hire service is designed to support clients who need reliable capacity quickly, without the risks that come with unfamiliar operators, inconsistent standards or under-resourced teams.

We work alongside principal contractors, developers, facilities management providers and infrastructure clients to enhance delivery, reduce downtime and keep projects moving.

Our Specialist Machinery Fleet

Valtra T234 Tractor with Roof-Mounted Crane

Our Valtra T234 tractor is a versatile and powerful asset for large-scale operations. Equipped with a roof-mounted crane, it is ideal for timber handling, loading and material movement on infrastructure and clearance sites.

The tractor is available with:

  • A timber trailer for efficient extraction and transport

  • A Heizohack chipper for high-output chipping on large-scale vegetation and clearance projects

This setup is particularly effective for highways, rail, utilities and large estate work where volume, access and speed are critical.

Excavators with Specialist Attachments

We operate a range of excavators fitted with attachments suitable for:

  • Material handling and moving

  • Groundworks and enabling operations

  • Site clearance and preparation

All machines are operated by trained and competent personnel who understand working within live sites, alongside other trades, and under strict safety and programme requirements.

MEWPs for Safe Access

Our MEWPs provide safe and efficient access for works at height, supporting arboricultural operations, inspection works and site clearance activities where traditional access methods are not suitable.

Using operated access equipment helps reduce risk, increase productivity and maintain compliance on complex sites.

Stump Grinders and Flails for Vegetation Management

We offer stump grinding and flail operations to support:

  • Development sites

  • Infrastructure corridors

  • Estate and asset management programmes

These machines are particularly effective for follow-on works after clearance, helping prepare sites for construction, landscaping or further enabling works.

Fully Equipped Arboricultural Teams

Alongside our machinery, Beechwood provides experienced tree teams equipped with professional arboricultural equipment. This allows us to deliver a complete service, from initial clearance through to detailed arboricultural works, without relying on multiple subcontractors.

Operated Hire That Adds Value, Not Risk

One of the key advantages of working with Beechwood is that our machinery comes with operators who are:

  • Fully trained and qualified

  • Experienced in infrastructure, construction and live environments

  • Familiar with RAMS, permits and site controls

  • Used to working as part of larger project teams

This reduces risk for our clients and ensures our plant and people contribute positively to site culture, safety performance and delivery outcomes.

We currently provide operated machinery services to clients across:

  • Infrastructure and utilities
