Who we are :

Hirepool was established in 1955 and over that time we've grown to become the national leader in the hire industry. Our equipment ranges from lawnmowers to 30-tonne excavators, portable toilets to 40metre marquees, cars to 10-tonne trucks.

It means we provide our services to a really diverse customer base, everyone from big names in infrastructure and construction to independent contractors and first-time DIY-ers all the way from Whangarei to Invercargill.

Providing essential services through a number of branches across NZ means Hirepool continues to recruit at this time. Please be assured that appropriate adjustments to our recruitment processes have been made to account for all Covid Alert Levels.
