Running a quarry or mine site means you can’t afford to wait on equipment. Holden Heavy Hire supplies mining machinery for hire across the central North Island with our production-grade excavators, dozers, articulated dump trucks, Keestrack crushing and screening plants, and stackers—all available on a dry hire basis.
Whether you’re stripping overburden, processing aggregate, or developing a new mine site, our fleet is sized and specified for serious output, not just commercial construction.
Our excavators range from the CAT 323 through to the CAT 352—one of the most capable heavy excavators available for hire in the central North Island. They’re the ideal quarry machinery hire for quarry benching, hard rock stripping, and large-scale bulk earthmoving where a light machine won’t keep pace.
Trimble 3D machine control is also available on selected models for precision grading to engineered design files. Browse excavators for hire for mining and quarrying work.
As one of the North Island’s trusted mining plant hire companies, our fleet features capable mid-sized options for haul road maintenance, site prep, and land clearing, through to larger dozers available for dry hire in the region.
We also have Trimble-equipped models available for projects that need precise grade control. Explore our bulldozer hire for quarry operations.
We supply Keestrack mobile crushers as part of our mining equipment hire options—the B3 Jaw Crusher and the R3 Impact Crusher. The B3 handles crushing of quarry rock and demolition concrete, while the R3 is well-suited to secondary crushing and producing shaped aggregate for road base and construction applications.
Both are track-mounted for easy repositioning around the site as your face advances. View our full crusher hire for quarry and mining operations.
For aggregate sizing and material separation, we have the Keestrack K4 and K5 screening plants. The K4 handles up to 300 tonnes per hour, while the K5 steps that up to 450 tph for larger quarry throughput requirements.
Both are track-mounted, double-decked screeners with configurable screen media, so the setup can be dialled to your specific product requirements. Explore screening plant hire for aggregate processing.
Our CAT 745 articulated dump truck is the haulage workhorse in our fleet. With a 41-tonne payload capacity, it’s built for high-cycle haul roads in quarry and mining conditions, delivering consistent output across long shifts, stable on variable underfoot conditions, and fuel-efficient enough to keep operating costs in check.
It’s a solid match alongside our CAT 352 excavator for high-volume extraction and haulage circuits.
As one of the central North Island’s most reliable mining equipment rental companies, our stacker conveyors complement the crushing and screening setup—feeding finished product into stockpiles without the need for a loader to handle the transfer. This keeps the processing circuit running continuously and reduces on-site double-handling.
They’re a practical addition to any mobile crushing and screening operation that includes stockpile management as part of the workflow.
A quarry operation doesn’t run on one machine; it runs on a coordinated fleet. Our quarry machinery hire covers the full production chain, from face preparation and extraction through to processing and stockpiling. Here’s how our equipment fits across each stage:
Heavy excavators bench rock and load haulage trucks in continuous high-volume cycles, keeping the crushing plant fed without bottlenecks at the face.
Mobile crushing and screening reduces haulage costs and gives you direct control over product specification, with finished aggregate sized and stockpiled on-site.
Large dozers and excavators working in tandem strip overburden efficiently, opening new faces and shaping greenfield sites ahead of extraction.
A well-maintained running surface reduces tyre wear, fuel consumption, and cycle times across your entire haulage fleet—a dozer on road upkeep pays for itself quickly.
Most mining plant hire companies in the central North Island will cover the excavation side of your operation, but sourcing a full processing setup from a single supplier is less common. That’s a genuine difference with Holden Heavy Hire.
One supplier means one point of contact, one delivery run, and the ability to negotiate better rates across combined long-term hire contracts. For long-term contracts running six months or longer, which is typical for quarry and mine site operations, we’re open to subsidising hire rates to keep the right machinery on your site for the duration.
Get in touch with your project details, and we’ll work out a mining equipment rental arrangement that makes sense for the scale and timeframe of your operation.

Dry hire means you receive your mining equipment hire without an operator—your crew runs it, on your schedule, for the duration of the hire period. We handle the delivery and collection—machines arrive at your site serviced and ready to work.
You’re responsible for operating the equipment safely with qualified operators and for day-to-day servicing, such as fluid checks. It’s the most flexible mining equipment hire for when you already have skilled operators on-site.
The right machine depends on the scale of your operation, the material you’re working with, and what stage of production you’re at. For extraction and loading, excavator size should match your haulage payload and cycle time—a CAT 352 pairs well with the CAT 745 ADT on high-volume circuits.
For overburden work, dozer choice depends on push volumes and material density. For crushing and screening, throughput requirements and product specs determine which configuration suits. If you’re not sure what quarry machinery hire options work best for your project, we’ll ask the right questions and point you towards the right fleet.
Our Waitomo location means we’re one of the top-trusted mining equipment rental companies for the Waikato, Bay of Plenty, and Taranaki—more convenient than depots based in Auckland or Wellington.
Our location matters when you’re moving heavy machines to remote or access-challenged sites. Give us your site location, and we’ll confirm transport costs up front.
