Water Bowser
Our
water bowser hire service supports a wide range of on-set needs, from drinking water to hygiene and catering. We offer water bowsers in different sizes, including 1000 litre and 2000 litre options, allowing productions to choose the right capacity for their crew size and shoot duration.
Each water bowser is fully towable and easy to move around set, making it simple to reposition as filming locations change. Water bowsers are commonly used on remote shoots to provide fresh drinking water for cast and crew, helping maintain comfort and welfare throughout long filming days.
In addition to drinking water, water bowsers are widely used for handwashing, hygiene stations, catering support, and general washing needs. This makes them an essential piece of equipment for productions operating away from mains water connections or managing large unit bases.
Fuel Bowser
Our
fuel bowsers are towable, easy to manoeuvre, and designed to safely store and dispense fuel where it is needed most.
Fuel bowsers are commonly used to supply generators that power lighting, cameras, technical equipment, and welfare units on set. Having a fuel bowser on site helps reduce downtime and ensures a consistent power supply, particularly during night shoots or extended filming schedules.
We offer fuel bowsers in 1000 litre and 2000 litre capacities, making them suitable for both smaller productions and large-scale shoots with significant power demands. Fuel bowsers can also be used to refuel production vehicles, support units, and on-set machinery, helping everything run efficiently throughout the day.
Water tank hire
In addition to bowsers, we also offer
water tank hire for larger-scale production requirements. Our water tanks are available in 3000 litre, 5000 litre, and 10,000 litre capacities, making them suitable for high-demand sets, long-term unit bases, or productions with large crews.
Water tanks can be supplied with customisable attachment options to support drinking water, hygiene facilities, washing stations, and catering operations. This flexibility allows productions to tailor their setup to match exact requirements while ensuring reliable access to water throughout filming.
Waste tank hire
Our waste tank hire service supports productions that require higher capacity waste management solutions. Waste tanks are available in 3000 litre, 5000 litre, and 10,000 litre sizes, offering a practical option for larger sets or extended hire periods.
Like our water tanks, waste tanks can be supplied with customisable attachment options to integrate seamlessly with
honeywagons and other welfare units. This ensures waste is managed efficiently and in line with on-set hygiene expectations, even in challenging or remote locations.
