To tackle the more than 200,000
searches made for plant and
equipment hire related terms on
Google in Australia every month,
an engineer has launched an online
search portal, PlantMiner.com.au to
offer plant and equipment for hire.
PlantMiner.com.au has attracted
more than 27,000 listings from
over 500 plant and equipment hire
companies from across Australia.
“
It is the first dedicated online
plant and equipment hire database
suitable for a range of industries,
directly linking searchers who have specific hire requirements,”
Plantminer CEO and co-founder, Michael Trusler said.
“
PlantMiner.com.au is an efficient way to search, compare and
secure plant and equipment for hire in a hurry, along with project-
specific safety features and attachments. Searchers can specify their
exact hire requirements, including hire duration, specific safety
features, attachments, and even site/mine pass outs,” Mr Trusler said.
“
The portal streamlines the ‘search and engage’ process by
gathering a large range of plant and equipment hire suppliers
across Australia, in the one place. Enquiries and quote requests are
sent directly to the supplier in real-time via email and SMS, which
means searchers can receive an immediate response from a range of
suppliers, from all locations, via the website.
“
Plant and equipment hire suppliers can upload detailed
descriptions and images of their plant and equipment, safety
features and attachments enabling searchers to view the product
before contacting the supplier via phone/email or through the online
‘
enquire and quote request’ lead generation system.
“
PlantMiner.com.au also allows suppliers to upload their company
and branch information onto a company profile page, acting as a
mini website that’s ideal for smaller, more remote businesses.”
