Loading shovels for rent in Sharjah

Renting loading shovels in Sharjah

The wheel loader, called a شيول (shovel) in the Gulf, loads sand, aggregate and rubble into trucks, spreads and levels fill, and clears sites. It is the machine for earthworks and yard work, hired by the hour, the day or the month with an operator.

Bucket size and the machine's weight decide the rate of work. A small loader handles a villa plot and a yard; road works, quarries and large sites use the bigger classes. It moves between nearby sites under its own power and by lowbed for anything further.

Where to find them in Sharjah

Sharjah's industrial areas, numbered 1 to 18, and Sajaa and Al Saja'a industrial zones hold a very large number of pickups, recovery trucks and tankers, many of them Sharjah-plated and working across the northern emirates. The stands near Industrial Area 10 to 12 and around the Maliha Road are where drivers wait for work.

What to ask the owner

• Bucket capacity and the machine class, and is it right for the material?
• Is the price per hour or per day with the operator, and what is the minimum?
• Who pays for diesel, and how much does it use in a day?
• Is mobilisation to the site included, driving or by lowbed?

Also called: wheel loader, شيول, front loader, loading shovel with operator
