The ‘Big Six’ in the world of ATVs are Can-Am, Honda, Kawasaki, Polaris, Suzuki and Yamaha. But recently a seventh big brand has emerged from North America, called Arctic Cat. Arctic Cat is the best in class value and features independent rear suspension and youth-friendly models.

Suzuki shares he title of best in sports/utility with Can-Am. Suzuki is known for it’s useful metal racks for storage, it’s breaks designed for precision and it’s steel build, whereas Can-Am is praised for it’s powerful engines, high-tech front and unique design. Polaris is the toughest in its class because of it’s low centre of gravity, powerful engine and sheer weight.

Yamaha is your sports ATV. It’s got high top speeds, fast acceleration, wide suspension and manoeuvrability like no other brand. If you’re looking for safety, Honda is your best bet. Honda offers a user-friendly SportClutch transmission – but can be operated without a clutch – solid suspension and comfortable handlebars for a smooth and comfortable ride.

The three main types of ATVs are Sports ATVs, Utility ATVs and Youth ATVs. Here's how each type differs:

• Sports ATVs are used for competition and recreation, much like dirt-biking and off-roading.
• Youth ATVs are similar but smaller and easier to control for minors, are generally low-maintenance, and come in sizes and capabilities fit for 6-year-olds through to 16-year-olds.
• Utility ATVs or UTVs are generally low-speed off-roaders with varying capabilities. Utility ATVs can be broken down into three main subgroups: Sidekick UTVs, Ranger UTVs and Bobcat UTVs. Sidekick and Ranger UTVs are similar in their main purpose is carrying people and things, both having boots. But a Sidekick holds one or two people with a loader on the back and a Ranger carries four people with a loader on the back.
• Bobcat UTVs look like mini-diggers, and can come with wheels or tracks, but always have a digger on the front. You can find almost as many types of these as you can find types of diggers.

The cost to hire an ATV or UTV for construction sites generally ranges from $110 to $500+ per day, with weekly hire rates between $660 and $3,600. Prices vary depending on the vehicle type, rental duration, features, and site-specific requirements. Rates are typically quoted for dry hire (without an operator) and may exclude GST.

Typical hire rates

Factors affecting hire costs

• Vehicle type: UTVs (side-by-sides) generally cost more than standard ATVs due to larger capacity and multi-passenger seating.
• Rental duration: Longer-term hires often reduce the average daily rate.
• Features and attachments: Safety equipment such as ROPS, seatbelts, lighting, tow hitches, and all-weather protection, or added attachments like trailers or spreaders, can increase costs.
• Location: Rates vary by city and local demand.
• Wet vs dry hire: Dry hire is the base cost, while wet hire (with an operator) is significantly higher, though operator licences are not always required for ATVs.

Obtaining quotes from multiple equipment hire providers ensures accurate pricing for your specific project needs.

Generally, a driver’s licence is not required to operate an ATV on private property with the owner’s consent. However, if the ATV is to be used on public roads, designated trails, or certain public lands, a licence and vehicle registration may be required. Regulations vary by state and local jurisdiction, so it’s important to confirm the rules for your specific location.

Key distinctions

• Private property: No licence is typically needed for use on private land with permission.
• Public land/trails: Licensing and registration requirements depend on the area’s designated rules.
• Public roads: A valid driver’s licence is always required.
• Registration: Some off-road areas may require an off-road vehicle (ORV) registration even if a licence isn’t needed.

Important considerations

• Check local laws: Regulations vary by state and local council.
• Workplace safety: Age restrictions, mandatory helmet use, and other site safety rules may apply.
• Consent: Always ensure permission from the property owner before riding on private land.

This ensures safe, legal, and compliant operation of ATVs on construction and work sites.

Yes, ATVs (All-Terrain Vehicles) and UTVs (Utility Terrain Vehicles) are specifically designed to handle rough and uneven terrain, making them ideal for construction, mining, and civil sites. Their high ground clearance, robust suspension, and powerful engines allow them to navigate mud, sand, gravel, and rocky surfaces safely and efficiently.

Why ATVs are suitable for rough terrain

• Off-road capability: Four-wheel drive, low-range gearing, and durable tyres provide traction on challenging surfaces.
• Versatility: Can transport personnel, tools, or small loads across difficult site conditions.
• Maneuverability: Compact size allows access to tight or uneven areas that larger vehicles cannot reach.
• Attachments and accessories: Many ATVs can be fitted with trailers, spreaders, or tool racks to support site operations.

ATVs are a practical and efficient solution for moving around rugged sites while maintaining safety and productivity.
