Description
Ride-On Roller Hire – Twin-Drum Vibratory Compaction
Through our network of trusted UK hire partners, we provide ride-on twin-drum vibratory rollers for compacting sub-base, asphalt, gravel, soil, or blacktop on driveways, paths, car parks, forecourts, or small construction sites. These machines are easy to operate, with dual drums for even compaction, vibration modes to suit different materials, and compact size for tight access.
Typical models have drum widths of 800–1200mm, operating weights around 1–3T, and hydrostatic drive for smooth control. They offer high travel speeds (up to 8–10 km/h) and low vibration for operator comfort. Most are towable or trailerable, with road-legal lighting for short moves.
Hire rates are competitive (indicative £200–£400/week ex. VAT, depending on size/duration), with daily options and delivery/collection arranged. Always check operator training needs (CPCS/NPORS for larger sites).
Key Benefits
- Even compaction with dual vibrating drums
- Compact size for restricted UK sites
- Easy to source and deliver nationwide
- Vibration settings for different materials
- Safer and faster than plate compactors for larger areas
Perfect for builders, landscapers, groundworkers, driveways installers, or small contractors on paths, car parks, or surfacing jobs.
