What’s Included

Crowd control barricades for events or high-foot-traffic areas

Pickup and removal at the end of the hire period
Delivery across greater Waikato often covers real distance — from inner-city Hamilton sites to fast-growing fringe subdivisions in Rototuna or Peacocke, and out to surrounding towns like Cambridge or Te Awamutu.
Temporary Fencing Hire Pricing in Hamilton
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. Transport distance carries more weight in Waikato pricing than in a compact city — a central Hamilton delivery is typically cheaper to service than a job well out towards Cambridge, Te Awamutu, or a rural subdivision.
Hamilton Site Considerations
Hamilton City Council requires a corridor access request for any equipment, fencing, or bins placed on the street or footpath rather than fully on private property.

The per-metre rate is usually similar, but delivery cost can be higher for sites further from the supplier’s depot, such as new subdivisions in Rototuna or Peacocke.
