Ongoing patronage, word-of-mouth recommendations and many five-star reviews from customers are what Northern Hire Group believes is the measuring stick of success.
NHG aims to develop close, long-term relationships with clients and instil confidence in the NHG brand by providing high-quality, reliable equipment that fulfils customer needs, when and where they need it.
NHG employs local people with bright personalities and a positive can-do attitude who understand local conditions, issues and limitations.
Staff take pride in their work, customer satisfaction and the success of the business.
Northern Hire Group director Chris Feldbauer began his journey into plant and equipment hire when, as a teenager, he worked weekends at Echuca Hire to supplement his meagre apprentice wage.
Many years later, in addition to his floor sanding business Prosanding Timber & Concrete, Chris began his own specialised hire company — Northern Generator Hire and Maxwell Mobile Signs — stocking generators and VMS boards.
When Echuca Hire closed its doors in 2014, Chris often drove past the empty yard, keenly aware of the loss of plant and equipment hire options in Echuca.
So in early 2015, Chris created Northern Hire Group, and a year later he filled that empty yard and opened the doors of his new business.
From its very inception, NHG has prided itself on its great range of quality plant and equipment for hire and the ability to adapt to surpass the needs and expectations of clients.
The ever-increasing range meets the specific needs of many different industries, including access, agriculture, civil construction, commercial trades, council and government departments, earthmoving, event organisers, local Indigenous groups and councils, land development, landscape and garden, renewable power supply, residential trades, road and rail infrastructure, sporting clubs and waste management.
With a fleet of heavy vehicles across four depots in Echuca and a fifth one in Bendigo, stock is easily moved across Victoria and southern NSW to where it is needed, including client sites.
Northern Hire Group is where “one call hires it all”.
