The Mass hire group is a plant tool and scaffold rental company specialising in dewatering pumps, large generators, and light towers, we have been in business for more than 25 years when André van Niekerk acquired the first branch in Mossel Bay.
With our core values of reliable, efficient, and quality service and our motto: ‘where you will find the right tool for the job,’ along with an entrepreneurial mindset we soon expanded to Mpumalanga, Limpopo, and the Northern Cape.
In 2010 MASS HIRE was established as a Franchisor and we have franchisees in the Eastern, Western and Northern Cape as part of the MASS HIRE team who focuses on plant tool and scaffold hire to the construction, mining, and private sectors. We import our own range of custom designed equipment to ensure we provide quality technologically advanced plant and tools to our clients.
In the last couple of years, we focused on becoming experts in dewatering for the mining industry with our in-house manufactured range of diesel driven pumps. Together with the dewatering pumps we provide diesel generators from 20 to 1000 kVA as well as light towers to ensure our clients can run a 24-hour operation. We differentiate ourselves from our competitors by providing a turnkey service where we can self-install pumps and pipelines with 24-hour support and on request we can provide dedicated on-site service technicians who ensure our equipment is always in good working order.
