Temporary Fencing Hire Pricing in New Zealand
Temporary fencing is typically priced per linear metre of panel — commonly $5–$15 a metre per week for shorter hires, dropping to roughly $2.20–$3.50 a metre per month for longer jobs, plus setup/dismantling (often around $1/metre, with a minimum charge) and a delivery fee. Gates are priced separately. These are typical New Zealand market rates, not a quote — exact cost depends on your site perimeter, gate count, and hire duration.
