Why FleetHire

Why Operators Choose TFO Software For Hire

Whether hire is your whole business or part of it, one system manages your gear, from yard to invoice.
On & Off Hire Status

Every item carries a status you can trust: on hire, off hire or in service.

Live Availability
The Hire Calendar shows what’s free across the yard, so you never double book a machine.
Dry & Wet Hire
Dry hire tracks the asset, period and rate. Wet hire links the machine, operator and hours.
Hire Invoicing

Seamlessly integrate with Xero for easy invoicing.

FleetHire

Your Whole Hire Fleet On One Board.

The Hire Calendar shows live availability across the yard, so you commit to a hire knowing the machine is free. Filter by asset type, site or status, and add cross hired assets so hired-in gear sits alongside your own. A $400 tool and a $400,000 machine get the same discipline, all on one board.

Watch Your FleetHire Overview

When hire, maintenance and tracking live in the same place, gear stops going missing. The yard sees what’s available, the office sees what’s earning and every hour out the gate gets invoiced.

Every Gap Is Margin

Your Hire Fleet, Out Earning And Accounted For.

When You Do Not Know What Is On Hire, You Lose Money
The most expensive machine in a hire fleet is the one you cannot find. Off-hire on paper, lost on a site somewhere, not earning, not invoiced. When hire records live in a spreadsheet and people’s memories, this happens constantly. Gear goes out unlogged. Machines get double-booked. Damaged items return uncharged. Every gap is margin walking out the gate.

FleetHire manages dry hire and wet hire in one system. A dry hire tracks the asset, period, rate and return. A wet hire links the machine, operator and hours.

Whether you hire out tools, attachments or excavators, each item carries a status you can trust: on hire, off hire, or in service. No more guessing where something went.

The Hire Calendar shows live availability across the yard, so you commit to a hire knowing the machine is free, or offer the customer a real date instead of guessing.

That view kills double-booking. FleetHire treats a $400 tool and a $400,000 machine with the same discipline, so all hire lives on one availability board.

FleetHire does not sit in a silo. Because it is part of TFO Software, your hire fleet is tracked, maintained and fuelled in one platform.

A machine due for service will not be offered on hire. A unit tracked can be located when a customer gets vague about where it ended up. Hire management stops being a spreadsheet and becomes part of how the whole fleet runs.

Plenty of operators end up on overseas rental software built for the US market, where language and workflows do not fit. TFO Software is built here and talks plant hire, not ‘rental’.

FleetHire is the Australian option, with the rest of your fleet management already attached rather than sold separately.

What Is Plant Hire Software?
Plant hire software manages the equipment a business puts out on hire: what is on hire and off hire, who has it, where it is, when it is due back and what to invoice. TFO Software handles dry and wet hire, live availability and returns for everything from hand tools to major plant, and connects it to the rest of your fleet management.
Dry hire means the customer hires the machine on its own and supplies their own operator. Wet hire means the machine comes with an operator supplied by you. They are billed and managed differently, and FleetHire handles both: dry hire tracks the asset and period, while wet hire is managed through the allocations feature where the machine, operator and hours worked are linked on the one record.
Yes. FleetHire treats a small tool and a 30-tonne excavator with the same discipline. Every item, whether it is an attachment, a hand tool or a major machine, has a hire status and sits on the same availability board, so you can see and commit your whole hire fleet from one screen rather than juggling separate lists.
TFO Software is built for the Australian market. It uses local terms like plant hire, dry hire and wet hire rather than US ‘rental’ language, and it is supported by an Australian team. The bigger difference is that hire is one module of a full fleet platform, so your hire fleet is tracked, maintained and fuelled in the same system.
Yes, and that is the advantage of running it inside TFO Software. A machine flagged for service in FleetMaint will not be offered on hire while it is in the workshop, and a unit fitted with FleetTrack can be located if a customer is unsure where it is. Hire status, service status and location all share one record.
This module is built for fleets that own and run assets and also put some out on hire, so owned and hired gear sit in one system. If you run a hire-first business where hire is the whole operation, the team can point you to the setup built for that, so the platform fits how you actually trade.
Yes. TFO Software has direct integration with Xero, so hire charges and asset costs flow automatically into the system you already run your books on. For Jonas, Baseplan, Viewpoint and VisionLink, data can be exported and imported instead. If you use a different package, ask the team during your trial whether an integration is available.

FleetHire runs on a no lock-in subscription, priced on a tiered base according to the number of total assets in your system, and works alongside the modules you already run. Contact us for a free quote today. The clearest way to size it is to load your hire fleet and watch a fortnight of on and off hire move through it.
