Cement mixer + wacker plate hire

Hi,

I'm going to hire a cement mixer and wacker plate from HSS (they have a hire pack with medium wacker + mixer which I think I'll go for). This is the first time I'll have used these so newbie question - will I be able to fit them in the back of an average sized car if I have the back seats down?

Cheers.

You might struggle to fit the mixer in

What are they charging for delivery?

Try to find an independant hire shop. Hss will kill you on their prices

It's Â£70 inc vat for the mixer + wacker plate for a weekend (friday midday - monday midday) which seems a good price to me, but delivery + collection would be Â£54 inc vat, at that price I'd be better off buying a second hand mixer and just hiring the wacker plate

What area are you in? maybe one of us might know a decent hire firm in your area. The hire charges arnt too bad for that time, but transport is a joke.

You can borrow my mixer if you live near. I got a Wacker as well
