MW Hire Group: Powering Projects, People & Progress Across Ireland
From plant hire to power solutions, site accommodation and specialist equipment, MW Hire Group continues to evolve to meet the changing needs of Irish businesses and construction projects.
Since being established in 1992, MW Hire Group has grown from its beginnings in Urlingford, Co. Kilkenny, into a nationwide plant hire and sales business supporting customers across Ireland and beyond.
Today, the business provides far more than machinery.
From the first delivery to the final day on site, MW Hire Group provides equipment, expertise and support designed to help keep projects moving.
More Than Hire — A Partner for Your Project
Every construction project is different.
A small agricultural job might require a mini excavator and dumper, while a major infrastructure project could require telehandlers, generators, welfare facilities, lighting, pumps and multiple pieces of specialist equipment working together.
That is why MW Hire Group has developed its fleet and services around the needs of the customer.
With a wide range of equipment available for hire and sale, customers can source the machinery and site solutions they need from one experienced provider.
From excavators and dumpers to telehandlers, generators, access equipment, lighting towers, pumps, compressors, accommodation and welfare units, MW Hire Group continues to build its fleet around the demands of modern projects.
The goal is simple: provide the right equipment, when it is needed, with the support to keep the job moving.
A Fleet Built for Modern Projects
Construction and infrastructure are constantly changing.
Projects are becoming more demanding, environmental considerations are becoming increasingly important, and businesses are looking for ways to improve efficiency without compromising reliability.
MW Hire Group has continued investing in its fleet to meet these changing requirements.
Its power offering, for example, extends from traditional generator hire through to modern battery energy storage solutions, giving customers more options when planning temporary power requirements.
Battery energy storage can be particularly useful for applications where reducing generator runtime, fuel consumption, noise or emissions is important.
This combination of established equipment and newer technology allows customers to select a solution based on the specific requirements of their project.
Keeping Irish Projects Moving
Equipment is only part of successful plant hire.
Availability, delivery, servicing and support matter just as much.
MW Hire Group operates from its headquarters in Urlingford, Co. Kilkenny, with additional depots providing coverage across Ireland.
Behind the fleet is a team of drivers, engineers and hire specialists working to make sure equipment reaches site ready to work — and that customers have support when they need it.
For MW Hire Group, the relationship doesn't end when the equipment leaves the depot.
It's about providing dependable service throughout the entire hire period.
From Plant Hire to Complete Site Solutions
One of the biggest changes in the industry is the demand for more complete solutions.
Instead of sourcing machinery, power, welfare and accommodation from multiple suppliers, contractors can increasingly look for a single hire partner capable of supporting several requirements.
MW Hire Group's offering reflects this.
Its site solutions include site offices, canteen units, welfare facilities, drying rooms and storage, alongside generators and battery systems to provide temporary power.
For contractors setting up a new site, having access to multiple solutions from one experienced provider can simplify the process and help create a more efficient setup from the beginning.
Powering the Future
The future of temporary power is also changing.
Diesel generators remain an important part of the construction, infrastructure and events industries, particularly where large amounts of dependable power are required.
However, battery technology and hybrid power systems are creating new opportunities to improve efficiency and reduce reliance on diesel.
MW Hire Group has continued to expand its power offering to include battery energy storage systems, alongside its generator fleet.
For suitable applications, combining battery storage with generators or renewable energy can provide a smarter approach to temporary power — helping businesses reduce unnecessary generator runtime while maintaining reliable power.
Built on Experience. Focused on What's Next.
More than 30 years after MW Hire Group was established, the core principle remains the same:
Help customers get the job done.
But the equipment needed to achieve that has changed.
From excavators and telehandlers to generators, access equipment, welfare units and battery energy storage, MW Hire Group continues to invest in its fleet and develop its services around the needs of modern projects.
Whether you're a construction contractor, agricultural customer, event organiser, infrastructure company or working on a major development, having the right equipment partner can make a significant difference.
MW Hire Group is ready to help power the next project.
