Site Security Hire in Wellington
Comparing site security for a site in Wellington? Map your site on Hirecompare and local suppliers quote directly against your exact layout — no phoning around for prices one supplier at a time.
Also known as CCTV hire, security camera hire in Wellington and around New Zealand.
Wellington’s hillside sections, narrow streets, and famously strong wind loads make site security and stable fencing especially important — a lot of central-city and Hutt Valley jobs also deal with steep or restricted vehicle access for delivery and pickup.

Site Security Hire Pricing in Wellington
Solar CCTV units typically run $89–$150 a week for a single camera, with higher-spec or actively monitored systems reaching $200–$300 a week — most suppliers require a minimum hire of around 4 weeks. These are typical New Zealand market rates, not a quote. Sites with higher-value material on-site or a history of theft in the area often justify more than one unit. In Wellington, quotes also tend to factor in hill access and wind exposure — expect a premium for steep or narrow-access sites over flat, easy-access central ones, and for anything not fully enclosed on an exposed section. See the table above for indicative pricing specific to Wellington.
Wellington Site Considerations
Wellington City Council requires a permit for any temporary structure, fencing, or bin placed on a footpath or road reserve — check this before your supplier delivers if your site line runs to the street edge.
Site Security Hire FAQs
Typically $100 – $165 up to $220 – $330 depending on size — see the table above for the full breakdown for Wellington. Exact price depends on your supplier, so compare real quotes for your job rather than relying on a general estimate.
No — solar CCTV masts are designed to run independently, which is why they’re the standard choice for construction sites without a permanent power connection yet.
This depends on site size and layout — a single camera pole can cover a small site entrance, while a larger perimeter usually needs multiple masts positioned to remove blind spots.
Yes — most suppliers can reposition units as the site layout changes, which is worth agreeing upfront if your job has distinct phases.
Yes, but exposed sites — especially along the south coast or elevated suburbs — may need additional mast bracing or a lower-profile unit to handle Wellington’s wind loads reliably.
Higher-density central city and inner-suburb sites generally see more foot traffic and higher theft risk than outer greenfield sites, which is why many CBD and Te Aro jobs run more than one camera.
Yes — most suppliers can reposition units as work progresses, which is useful on the terraced sites common in Wellington’s hill suburbs where the best vantage point often changes as the build goes up.
