Onsite launches Ballarat branch
The Onsite Rental Group has opened a new 4,000sqm branch at
Ballarat, the latest milestone in its Victorian growth strategy.
The Onsite Rental Group is investing in expansion in the Southern
Region and the Ballarat branch launch follows its recent purchase of
Parks Portables in Melbourne, and Ifco portable buildings in 2010.
Chief Executive Officer of the Onsite Rental Group, Mark Rich, said:
“We are the region’s only provider of specialist portable buildings
and there is strong demand for this product set from customers in the
region’s civil and construction industries.
“In addition, our FirstOn site establishment package, which is the first
of its kind in Australia, offers customers a simple, efficient site set up
process that saves time and stress. Customers only need to make one
call to initiate their entire site set-up in a single, flexible package, from
rental equipment to service connections.”
The new branch is located at 17-19 Stonepark Drive, Delacombe. The
Onsite Rental Group is a specialist rental company.

the medical unit in the tray, the medical unit can be removed with no
tools required.”
