Ordering a permanent power pole with a meter box? Ours is wired before it leaves the depot.

Add a meter box to a permanent pole and our licensed electricians wire it on the pole at our depot, before delivery. The pole arrives ready to stand, and there is no second visit to fit the box on site. The photo is one of ours going in, box open for the final connections.

The rest of the job splits the same way as always. We supply the galvanised pole and the foundation cage, lodge the Connect Application and the Electrical Work Request with Energex, and our own crew installs the pole once your footing has cured. Your concreter pours the footing to our spec. Your electrician runs the cable from the pole to the house.

One fixed-price quote covers our half. Ask for it at the link in the comments.

Family-run since 1960.

Event portaloo hire in Brisbane for fundraisers, fun runs and community days: $88 inc. GST per unit for the 4-day minimum hire, plus $154 delivery.

Running a fundraiser this spring? Plan on one portaloo per 50 guests for a short event, and one per 25 if it runs past six hours with the drinks flowing. The more people you get through the gate, the more it matters.

Book two or more for the same venue and we take 20% off each additional portaloo. Delivery is charged once, however many come on the truck.

Dedicated event fleet, never used on construction sites. Deep-cleaned, internal lighting, mirror, soap and hand wash, paper stocked. About 300 flushes in each.

Brisbane, Logan, Redlands, Ipswich and Moreton Bay. Family-run since 1960. Date, venue and expected crowd to the link in our bio.

Cheers, Doug

Running the club break-up or the school end-of-year do? Sort the toilets before the sausages.

Presentation nights, P&C fetes, the last session of the season. They end up on the oval, at the park or in someone's backyard, and the toilet block is locked or too far away.

An event portaloo is $88 inc. GST for the 4-day minimum hire, plus $154 delivery. Book two or more for the same venue and we take 20% off each additional portaloo, with delivery charged once.

Every unit is from our dedicated event fleet, never used on construction sites. Deep-cleaned, lit inside, mirror, soap and hand wash, paper stocked.

Brisbane, Logan, Redlands, Ipswich and Moreton Bay. Family-run since 1960. Date and venue to the link in the comments and we will quote it.

Slab booked for January? Set the site up before you knock off for the year.

Every new build needs power and a toilet from day one. Book the two together on our Site Setup Bundle and the hire comes down.

The bundle prices the two minimum hires at $729 ex GST, with standard-zone delivery from $490 ex GST. That saves $81 against booking the pole and the portaloo separately.

In it: a 63A stayed site pole for its 12-week minimum, with the Energex paperwork lodged by us, and a builders portaloo for its 4-week minimum, with fortnightly servicing included.

Give us the address and the week you want it on site, and it is one less thing to sort in January.

Family-run since 1960.

Event portaloo hire in Brisbane for the work Christmas party: $88 inc. GST per unit for the 4-day minimum hire, plus $154 delivery.

The venue is booked, the caterer is booked, and then someone asks about toilets. If the party is in a shed, a yard, a park or the car park out the back, that is us.

Book two or more for the same venue and we take 20% off each additional portaloo. Delivery is charged once for the whole booking.

Every unit comes from our dedicated event fleet, never used on construction sites. Deep-cleaned, internal lighting, a mirror, soap and hand wash, paper stocked.

Brisbane, Logan, Redlands, Ipswich and Moreton Bay from Capalaba. Family-run since 1960.

Send us the date, the venue and a rough head count at the link in our bio and we will come back with a quote.

Locking the site up over Christmas? A hired camera watches it while the crew is off.

Plenty of builds go quiet over the break. The gear stays. A site camera records around the clock and you check it from your phone. It runs on 4G, so it needs no site internet. Motion alerts pick out people and vehicles and ignore the wind.

The standalone solar camera pole in the photo runs off the grid, about $100 a week ex GST on the 12-week minimum hire, plus $390 ex GST delivery in the standard zone. Already have one of our temporary power poles on site? A camera mounted on it is about $69 a week ex GST on the same minimum.

Twelve weeks is the minimum hire. Put it up in November and it is still recording in January, break included.

Brisbane, Logan, Redlands, Ipswich and Moreton Bay from our Capalaba depot. Further out, ask us.

Family-run since 1960.

This is Poles and Holes. Not a call centre, not a franchise. The people in this photo answer the phone, load the truck and turn up on your site.

Family-run in Brisbane since 1960. The gear has changed a lot in sixty-odd years. The job has not: say what we will do, do it properly, leave the place tidy.

If any of this crew has been out to your place, give them a wave below. They read the comments.

Event portaloo hire for the October long weekend: $88 inc. GST for the 4-day minimum hire, plus $154 delivery.

Saturday 3 to Monday 5 October. If the backyard is hosting the whole family, or the club is putting on a do, one clean unit outside takes the pressure off the house.

The 4-day minimum covers the whole long weekend. We drop it off before and collect it after.

Every unit is from our dedicated event fleet, never used on construction sites. Deep-cleaned, internal lighting, mirror, soap and hand wash, paper stocked.

Need two? We take 20% off each additional portaloo delivered to the same venue.

Family-run since 1960. Date and address to the link in our bio.

Need a private power pole on your block? Here is who does what, so there are no surprises in the quote.

A permanent power pole is the one that stays. A new build on acreage, a shed that needs its own supply, or a swap for an old timber pole that Energex has flagged. Ours are galvanised steel: no rot, no termites, and a service life of 50 years or more.

Our part: we supply the pole and the foundation cage with the bolts already set, we lodge the Connect Application and the Electrical Work Request with Energex, and our own crew installs the pole once your footing has cured. If you order a meter box, our licensed electricians wire it at the depot before delivery.

Your part: your builder or concreter digs the footing, places our cage and pours the concrete to our spec. Cabling from the pole to the house is your electrician's job.

Two clear halves, and one fixed-price quote for ours. Ask for it at the link in the comments.

Family-run since 1960.

Site setup bundle: a builder's power pole and a construction portaloo on one booking. Book them together and the hire comes down.

Most new builds need both from day one. The bundle prices the two minimum hires at $729 ex GST, with standard-zone delivery from $490 ex GST. That saves $81 against booking the pole and the portaloo separately.

What is in it: a 63A stayed site pole for its 12-week minimum, with the Energex paperwork lodged by us, and a builders portaloo for its 4-week minimum, with fortnightly servicing included. After the minimum periods both roll on week to week and are invoiced monthly.

The photo is one of our sites: pole up, portaloo beside it, both off the same truck.

Family-run since 1960.

Cheers, Doug
