Fuel, Delivered to Site: How Pronto Hire Keeps Your Job Moving

We know how frustrating it can be to have a job humming along… then suddenly everything slows down because you’re waiting on fuel. Someone has to leave site, the machines sit idle, and the day’s plan gets thrown out the window.

That’s why we’ve made it simple: fuel, delivered to site. Whether you need a one-off top up to get through the day, or you want a regular daily/weekly fuel run set up for the season, we can arrange a fuel truck to come to your site and refuel your plant and machinery.

And the best part? It’s not just for Pronto Hire equipment - we can fuel any machine on site, then invoice you at the end of the month for the fuel used.

What is Pronto Hire’s On-Site Fuel Service?

Our on-site fuel service is exactly what it sounds like: we arrange fuel delivery to your job site so your machinery can be refuelled where it’s working - no downtime, no running around, no last-minute panic.

This service is ideal for:

Excavators, diggers, loaders, rollers, skid steers and other plant
Sites with multiple machines that burn through fuel quickly
Contractors who want a simple, reliable fuel solution during peak season

The Biggest Benefit: Less Downtime on Site

Every time a machine stops for fuel, it costs you:

Production time
Labour time (someone has to sort it)
Momentum (the job slows down, then takes time to get rolling again)

With on-site fuel delivery, you keep your team moving and your machines working - and you don’t have to pull someone off the tools just to go chase fuel.

Not Just for Our Hire Gear

Even if you didn’t hire the machine from Pronto Hire, we can still help.
If it’s on your site and needs fuel, we can arrange a fuel truck to come out and refuel it.

This makes it easy to keep everything running - whether it’s:

your own machines,
subcontractor gear,
or hired equipment from elsewhere.

One-Off Top Ups or Scheduled Fuel Runs

Some sites just need a top up now and then. Others need fuel deliveries like clockwork, especially during busy seasons.

That’s why we offer two flexible options:

1) One-Off Fuel Delivery

Perfect when:

you’re caught short,
the job’s running longer than expected,
or you just need a quick top up to finish the day.

2) Regular Scheduled Fuel Runs (Daily / Weekly)

Perfect when:

you’re running a crew across one site for weeks,
you’ve got multiple machines burning fuel daily,
or you want consistency during seasonal peaks.

We’ll work with you to set a schedule that suits your workflow, so fuel is one less thing to think about.

How Billing Works

We keep it straightforward:

You’re charged for the fuel used
We track usage across the period
We invoice you at the end of the month

That means fewer receipts, fewer interruptions, and cleaner admin for your team.

Who This Service is Best For

On-site fuel delivery is a great fit for:

Civil crews and earthworks teams
Drainage and roading contractors
Land development projects
Rural/remote sites where fuel runs are a mission
Anyone who wants to reduce downtime and keep machines moving

If you’ve got multiple machines on a site - or you’re simply sick of stopping work to sort fuel; this is for you.

How to Book an On-Site Fuel Run

Getting set up is easy. Tell us:

where the site is,
what machinery needs fuel,
whether it’s a one-off or a regular schedule,
and any site access notes (entry, hours, contact person on site).

We’ll organise the rest.
