About TNI Plant & Equipment Hire.

A Perth family business built on a simple idea: quality machines, looked after properly, hired at prices that reward good customers.

Our story.

TNI Plant & Equipment Hire is a Western Australian owned and operated family business, founded in 2026 by brothers Tom and Ned Iredell and based in Mount Hawthorn, Perth.

TNI was created to provide ourselves, our family and friends with quality machinery at the best possible price. We know our mates look after our machinery, and we factor that into our prices. We believe in quality customers before margins — that's the belief our business was founded on.

Our aim is to provide regular hire to repeat customers at unbeatable prices. Our quality, regularly maintained and modern fleet is built for mobility, allowing our customers to move between jobs on extended hires. We run 1.7T mini excavators (Yanmar ViO17-1) and 2.1T mini excavators (Yanmar ViO20-6), all available now. Each machine is paired with a custom trailer, and the whole fleet is towable with a standard car licence. At our prices, it's more convenient and cost-effective to hire long term.
