Concrete Agitator Truck Hire Rates Guide
A concrete mixer, often called an Agi Truck, is essential for the construction industry, offering flexible options for construction sites. You can choose dry hire to fill the truck yourself or arrange delivery to your site. Widely used by construction companies, these trucks are a staple in the concrete industry. To assist with budgeting, we've outlined average hire rates for various truck types to help plan your expenses effectively.
| Concrete Agitator Truck Type | Capacities (m³) | Average Hire Rate (Per 4-Hour Minimum) |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Agi Truck | 6.0 - 8.0 | $500 - $700 |
| Semi Agi Truck | 9.0 - 12.0 | $700 - $900 |
| Mini Agi Truck | 2.5 - 4.5 | $400 - $600 |
Note: These rates are indicative and may vary based on factors such as location, supplier, and specific project requirements. All prices exclude GST and are in AUD.
Over and above the cost of hiring the agitator truck, you can hire these trucks on the basis of truck and concrete included. These prices are usually presented on a per-square-metre basis.
Rates for Concrete Delivery
Keep in mind, standard weekday concrete deliveries to central metro locations are typically priced lower, with higher rates for extended travel or off-hours delivery. Morning deliveries often cost more due to demand, while afternoon pours may offer better rates as trucks are less in demand.
Types of concrete are measured with these units:
- Megapascals (MPa): Measures concrete's compressive strength; higher MPa means stronger concrete for durable structures.
- Aggregate Size: Affects concrete's strength and finish; smaller aggregates suit smoother finishes, larger ones provide strength.
- Slump: Indicates concrete's flowability; higher slump values mean wetter, more fluid concrete for detailed work or complex forms.
Most concrete delivery companies offer concrete mix products ranging from 20-50 MPa compressive strength, with a design slump from 20 to 120, and they can mix in aggregates including 10mm, 14mm, and 20mm.
| Megapascals (MPa) / Aggregate Size (mm) / Slump (mm) | Price per Square Metre (AUD) |
|---|---|
| 20 / 20 / 80 | $270 - $285 |
| 25 / 20 / 80 | $275 - $290 |
| 32 / 20 / 80 | $290 - $305 |
| 40 / 20 / 80 | $310 - $325 |
| 20 / 10 / 80 | $275 - $290 |
| 25 / 10 / 80 | $280 - $295 |
| 32 / 10 / 80 | $290 - $305 |
| Reduced Line Mix | $260 - $360 |
| Block Fill | $285 - $335 |
