New Service - Cornwall Sweeper Hire

We can supply operated hire of a walk-behind pedestrian sweeper to a compact road sweeper. The sweepers are ideal for clearing leaves and general detritus as well as removing weeds and moss from hard surfaces.

Our vehicles can access even the most confined areas because of the small working width and with a low working height of 2 meters they offer extreme manoeuvrability. Our sweepers with a are available with an operator and they are ideal for car parks, recreational tracks, pavements and around school buildings.

Our operators are all qualified, DBS checked and supplied with suitable PPE.
