The ideal solution for covering trenches or holes during road construction.
Road plates and trench coverings are generally used during road construction or covering trenches where vehicular traffic will pass through.
Our road plates/trench covers are made from 350 premium grade steel for strength and durability. All plates have lifting eyes and fixing holes cut into them for easy of use. We fit all our road plates with a lock and lift plate in the centre - a lifting rig is available for hire making moving these an absolute breeze.
Common Uses:
Cover open trenches.
Covering potholes.
Driveway access.
Construction excavation crossing.
Pedestrian accessways.

Delivery & Collection
We have several delivery options available. See below.
Flat deck delivery/collection: From $90 + GST each way
A forklift, digger or other suitable machine is required to load or unload the plates on site.
Hiab delivery/collection - Jobsite Hire truck: $195 + GST flat rate each way
We have a small crane truck that can carry up to 5 plates (more than that and we can bring a second truck). Allowance of 15 min for set up and loading/unloading of the first plate, 10 min per plate thereafter.
Areas this cost covers: Albany to Pukekohe and west to Kumeu. We are happy traveling further however some additional cost are applicable to cover wages, fuel and RUC's.
Our truck has a 3.75m reach, so plates can be positioned next to a driveway or work area and be collected from a similar area.
Hiab delivery/collection - contractor: From $180 + GST per hour
If the plates need to be placed a fair distance away from truck access then a hiab contractor will be required.
Their charges range from $180 to $250 + GST per hour.
Contractors charge from when they leave THEIR yard, to when they return to THEIR yard. Not just the trip between your site and our yard or vice versa. Generally speaking charges range from $350 to $500 + GST.
