Ride On Roller details
Narrow 800mm Ride-On Roller Hire – Tight Access Compaction
Through our network of trusted UK hire partners, we offer 800mm drum width ride-on tandem vibratory rollers for compacting sub-base, asphalt, gravel, or soil in confined or narrow areas where wider machines won't fit. These compact twin-drum rollers deliver even pressure and vibration for a solid finish on driveways, paths, pavements, small car parks, or edging against curbs/walls.
They're easy to manoeuvre with good visibility over the drum edges, adjustable vibration (low for soil/sub-base, high for asphalt), and hydrostatic drive for smooth control. Most models have water spray for asphalt work, low vibration for operator comfort, and are trailerable for transport.
Hire rates are competitive (indicative £150–£250/week ex. VAT, depending on model/duration), with daily options and delivery/collection arranged. Great for smaller sites where precision and access are key.
Key Benefits
- Narrow 800mm drums for tight paths and edging work
- Twin vibrating drums for even, professional compaction
- Compact size fits restricted UK sites and easy transport
- Adjustable vibration to match material type
- Smooth hydrostatic drive and good visibility
Perfect for driveway installers, landscapers, groundworkers, or small contractors on paths, pavements, or surfacing where space is limited.
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.
