Built for Operators

Why Store Your Equipment With Us?

Heavy equipment is expensive to own, difficult to move and impossible to leave on a public road overnight. A standard excavator can be worth $200,000 or more, and construction sites do not always have secure overnight storage on site. We connect machinery operators with verified yard hosts who have the hardstand, compound space and access gates your gear needs between jobs.

Whether you are a sole operator with a single 3-tonne excavator or a civil contractor cycling a fleet of heavy plant through multiple projects, a dedicated storage yard costs a fraction of leasing your own depot. Browse yards close to your active job sites to minimise float costs and get your gear back on the clock faster.

Every yard host is identity-verified before their first listing goes live. Listings show the surface type, yard dimensions, gate width and overhead clearance so you can confirm fit before you mobilise a float truck. If you have equipment above 20 tonnes or require low-loader access, message the host directly to confirm.

  • Verified secure compounds
  • Near industrial precincts
  • Heavy vehicle access
  • No lock-in contracts

Browse Equipment Storage by Region

Leinster

5 cities

Leinster is Ireland's most populous and economically active province. Dublin, its capital, is one of Europe's fastest-growing cities, and one of its most space-constrained. Housing density across the greater Dublin area has left most households without garages or meaningful off-street storage. The province extends into scenic counties like Wicklow and Wexford, where rural landowners have space they could share. Demand is urban; supply tends to come from the fringe.

Munster

4 cities

Munster covers the south and south-west of Ireland, a region of working ports, farmland, and stunning Atlantic coastline. Cork is a major city with real storage pressure; Kerry and Clare attract caravans and campervans that need seasonal off-site parking. The province's maritime tradition means boat and trailer storage is a consistent need, particularly around Cork Harbour, the Shannon Estuary, and the Wild Atlantic Way.

Connacht

2 cities

Connacht takes in the west of Ireland, from Galway City to the wild coastline of Mayo. It's a province of strong contrasts: Galway is a growing, cosmopolitan city where space is increasingly hard to find; the surrounding countryside has rural properties with ample outbuilding space. The region's Atlantic coastline and national parks draw caravan and campervan users from across Ireland, making seasonal storage demand a feature of every county in the province.

Ulster

1 city

Ulster (Republic) takes in the north-west of Ireland, primarily County Donegal. It's a dramatic, sparsely populated region with an outsized reputation for wild scenery and outdoor recreation. Donegal's coastline is among the most photographed in Ireland, drawing surfers, sailors, and campervan travellers who need somewhere to store their gear between visits. Local landowners with barns, sheds, and large driveways are well placed to serve that need.

Storage for Heavy Machinery

From a mini excavator to a 50-tonne crane, we have yards built for heavy gear.

Every Machine Type

Excavators, loaders, graders, rollers, cranes. Find yards with the surface, space and weight capacity your gear demands.

Secure Compounds

Fenced, gated and under CCTV. Heavy equipment is a theft target, so security comes first.

Heavy Vehicle Access

Yards with wide gates, solid hardstand and access for low-loaders and float trucks.

No Depot Overhead

Skip the cost of leasing a full depot. Pay only for the space you need, when you need it.

Near Job Sites

Search for yards close to your current projects and industrial precincts to minimise transport costs.

Between-Jobs Flexibility

Store for a week between contracts or months at a time. No lock-in, no long-term commitments.

Tips for Storing Heavy Equipment

  1. 1

    Choose sealed or compacted hardstand

    Heavy plant needs load-bearing ground. Concrete or well-compacted gravel prevents sinking after rain and makes it easier to load out for the next job. Ask the host whether the yard has been load-tested, particularly if you are storing equipment above 20 tonnes.

  2. 2

    Lower and secure all moving parts

    Lower buckets and blades to the ground, retract booms and attach travel locks. Engage the slew lock on excavators and set hydraulic controls to neutral. Equipment that shifts unexpectedly in storage creates a safety liability and a dispute you do not want.

  3. 3

    Top up or drain fluids depending on storage length

    For short-term storage, top up engine oil, hydraulic fluid and coolant. For several months of storage, consider draining the fuel tank to prevent moisture contamination and use fogging oil in the engine. Australian summer heat accelerates fluid degradation in idle equipment faster than most people expect.

  4. 4

    Disconnect or trickle-charge the battery

    Disconnect the negative terminal or remove the battery for long-term storage. If the equipment may need to move at short notice, use a smart trickle charger. Modern plant electronics can draw parasitic current even when switched off, draining a battery in a matter of weeks.
