Generator Hire FAQs

How do I determine what size generator I need?

To determine the right generator size, calculate the total wattage required by all equipment you’ll use. Consider the starting wattage of devices like air conditioners and pumps. If unsure, consult with the rental team for expert advice.

Is delivery and installation included in the generator hire?

Delivery and installation services are often available but will incur additional charges. Please confirm with the rental team whether these services are included and if technicians will set up and test the generator on-site.

What is included in the generator hire cost?

The cost typically covers the generator rental itself, with additional fees for delivery, fuel, and accessories like cables or distribution boards. Always request an itemized quote to understand all costs upfront.

Do I need to organise fuel, or is it provided?

Generator Rentals Australia offers both pre-filled generators and fuel delivery services. However, arranging refuels directly may be more convenient for you. Please consult with our rental team for the best option and ensure you have the correct type of fuel for your generator.

What should I do if the generator breaks down?

Generator Rentals Australia have support available for breakdowns. Please call our head office phone number for troubleshooting or replacement equipment. Check beforehand if there are any additional fees for such services.

Do you provide training on how to operate the generator?

We offer basic instructions or on-site training during installation. There may also be user manuals or videos available. Please confirm what is available with the rental team.

What safety measures should I follow when using a generator?

Generators must be operated outdoors or in well-ventilated areas to prevent carbon monoxide buildup. Use safety features like circuit breakers and avoid overloading the generator. Confirm with the rental team if additional safety equipment is required.

Can I change or cancel my booking?

Yes, booking modifications are allowed, but terms may vary. Discuss with the rental team, options for extending the hire period, upgrading equipment, or canceling your booking, and clarify any cancellation or change fees.

Do I need insurance to hire a generator?

Generator Rentals Australia requires proof of insurance, or can offer limited coverage for an additional fee. Please confirm the rental policy to understand your liability for damages, theft, or loss during the hire period.

What accessories are included with the generator hire?

Accessories like power cables, fuel tanks, distribution boards, and earthing kits are available for hire. Confirm with the rental team what’s included in your package and if additional equipment is required for your project.

Can I hire a generator for short-term or long-term use?

GRA offers flexible rental terms ranging from daily to monthly. Discuss your requirements with the rental team to arrange the most cost-effective option.

How far in advance should I book a generator?

For busy periods or large projects, booking in advance ensures availability. Lead times may vary depending on the generator’s size and complexity, so it’s best to secure your booking as early as possible.

Do you offer 24/7 customer support during the rental period?

Yes, GRA offers 24/7 support for technical issues or emergencies. Please confirm the availability and response times before finalising your booking.

Are your generators suitable for sensitive equipment?

Some generators are designed to power sensitive equipment like computers and medical devices. Ask if the rental generator includes inverter technology or other features that ensure stable power output.

Do you offer on-site inspections to determine my power needs?

GRA can provide on-site consultations or inspections to ensure the generator meets your power requirements. Please contact our team to confirm availability and inquire about any potential additional charges.

Can the generator run continuously, and for how long?

Generators can run for extended periods, but regular refueling and maintenance are necessary. Confirm the runtime for your generator model with our rental team and arrange for fuel and maintenance if required.

What happens if I return the generator late?

Late returns may incur additional fees. Please contact us regarding our policy on extensions or late returns to avoid unexpected charges.
