When is wet hire better than dry hire?

Wet hire is usually preferred when the equipment being used is complex or when the client lacks a licensed operator. It’s also a good choice for short-term or high-risk tasks where safety and compliance are essential. Wet hire can save time by eliminating the need for training or ticket verification. In shutdowns or urgent lifting jobs, having an experienced operator ensures smoother execution. The provider usually takes responsibility for the operator’s qualifications and performance. While wet hire may have a higher hourly rate, it often results in better efficiency, fewer delays and reduced liability for the hiring party.

What does logistics mean in the transport industry?

In the transport industry, logistics refers to the planning and coordination of moving goods, equipment or materials from one place to another. This includes route planning, vehicle selection, load security, scheduling and delivery tracking. Good logistics ensures that the right resources arrive at the right location at the right time, minimising downtime or delays. It may also involve permits, escort vehicles and compliance with road regulations, especially for oversized loads. Logistics plays a key role in keeping complex projects on schedule and can make a significant difference in the cost, safety and speed of transport operations.

How does logistics support construction and mining projects?

In construction and mining, logistics ensures equipment, materials and components are delivered on time and in the correct sequence. This coordination helps avoid bottlenecks, prevents idle time and keeps multiple contractors aligned. Logistics planning often includes staging deliveries, site access considerations and safe unloading procedures. For remote or high-security sites, logistics may also involve compliance with environmental and safety protocols. Having a well-structured logistics plan reduces errors, supports cost control and improves productivity. Whether managing deliveries for a civil works project or transporting mining gear to regional Australia, logistics is essential for smooth and timely execution.
