What the work is worth

Typical equipment hire job values

These are QuickQuote's own published cost ranges — the same figures homeowners see before they post. Knowing the band up front is half of deciding whether a job is worth quoting.

Why a flat fee

What per-lead pricing does to a hire operator

No charge to quote, ever

Whether the equipment hire job is quick or involved, QuickQuote never charges to view or quote it. Free to start, or AU$49 a month flat — never a fee per lead.

High-volume, lower-value jobs feel a lead fee first

Equipment Hire jobs are often quick and lower value than a renovation trade's — exactly the jobs where a per-lead charge eats the most margin. QuickQuote never charges per lead, so the small jobs stay worth taking.

Only three hire operators quote each job

An equipment hire job on QuickQuote is capped at three quotes, so you're never one of a long list racing on price alone.
