We have turf cutter hire available nationwide. Our Camon petrol turf cutters are high quality, professional standard pieces of equipment. They cut 30cm wide strips of turf away from the soil quickly and effortlessly, and without damaging it. Sod cutters are the ideal pieces of garden machinery for removing areas of turf in preparation for laying cables and pipes, building a patio, or carrying out a range of other gardening and landscaping projects.
Using the adjustable cutting height, you can achieve the required cutting depth for a range of different lawns and other grass areas quickly and easily. Once you have used a turf cutter to cut strips of sod from your garden, you can roll the sections up and move them out of the way while work is carried out. As these machines do not damage the turf, you can replay it once the work has been completed. This means that using a petrol turf cutter is very economical, as it saves you the expense of having to buy fresh turf or seed once you have completed the building or landscaping work.
Sod cutters are easy to operate. They have a slim and compact design, simple controls and adjustable anti-vibration handlebars for user comfort. They are designed so that anyone can manoeuvre them correctly. To use a turf cutter, start the engine and squeeze the two-step safety lever to engage the cutting blades. Lower the blades into the turf using the lever at the rear of the machine. Engage the rear wheel drive using the gear lever and move forward. As you walk along with the turf cutter, the blades slice through the top layer of sod, leaving 30cm wide strips that can be rolled up and removed from the ground with ease, without damaging it. This allows work to be carried out, such as the installation of pipes and cables, and then the same turf can be rolled back out over the ground to bed back in. Powered by a powerful motor and are driven by a gearbox drive system, then easily manage to move forward across difficult surfaces.
You can book a turf cutter hire online using our booking system or over the phone with our hire team. Once you have booked your equipment and tool hire, you can collect the machine from your local store, or we can deliver to your door or site. Delivery charges apply.
Please note: The turf cutter blade is designed only for cutting strips of turf. The grass should be cut short, and you should move any objects such as stones, branches or other materials which could cause damage to the blade before using the machine. You should not use the turf cutter on any ground that is less than 25mm in depth. The depth of the land can be checked easily with a garden fork, spade or trowel. The maximum gradient that you can use these turf cutters on is 20 degrees.

From 1st April 2022, our suppliers will only fuel machines with white diesel. This is due to new government guidelines.
If you, as the hirer, refuel any equipment while it is in your possession, it must be with WHITE DIESEL.
YOU MUST NOT USE RED DIESEL IN HIRED MACHINES OR EQUIPMENT.
If you return a machine refuelled with rebated diesel, suppliers will have to remove and dispose of the fuel. They must also flush the tank and supply lines before they can refuel them. The process is chargeable, with no exceptions.
An insurance charge will be calculated at checkout. If you have proof of your own Hired-In Plant Insurance (HIPI) and wish to opt-out of the insurance charge, you can do so by booking via Live Chat.
When an unexpected expense crops up and you need to get hold of different equipment, the costs involved can become a struggle. National Tool Hire don't think that anyone should have to wait when essential work and building improvements are needed, or when there's a passion project that needs indulgence.
To help our customers and make tool hire even easier, we've worked with PayPal to provide a way to spread the cost with PayPal Pay in 3. You can use Pay in 3 for eligible shopping cart amounts between £30.00 to £2,000.00. Terms apply.
The simple and efficient way of managing your tool and plant hire spend with discounted hire rates. No matter what the job, a trade account makes managing your cash flow a whole lot easier.
