Do you offer fuel-included generator rentals?
Yes. We offer dry hire (you supply diesel) or wet hire (we supply diesel + delivery + scheduled refuelling). Wet-hire is popular for events, remote sites and continuous-run projects where downtime must be avoided.
Are HAR Machinery Rentals generators DEWA / Dubai Municipality approved?
Yes. All our diesel and silent generators meet Dubai Municipality, DEWA and EHS noise and emission requirements (Stage IIIA / Tier 3 emissions, sub-75 dB silent canopies). PUC, insurance and operator certificates are provided on request.
Can I rent equipment for a single day or only long-term?
Both. We offer flexible rental contracts from 1 day to 12 months. There is no minimum hire period for generators, power tools or compactors. Long-term hire (3+ months) attracts up to 30% discount.
Generator rental
Common questions about generator rental from HAR Machinery Rentals in Dubai and the UAE.
What size generator do I need for my project?
As a rule of thumb: small site office or villa needs 10–25 KVA, a medium construction site needs 60–125 KVA, large projects 250–500 KVA, and tower-block or industrial loads need 600–1000 KVA. Our team sizes the right unit free of charge — share your load list or contact us.
What is the difference between diesel and silent generators?
A diesel generator (open-frame) is louder (~95 dB) and used on noise-tolerant construction sites. A silent generator has a sound-attenuated canopy (sub-75 dB at 7 m), making it ideal for events, hospitals, offices, residential areas and Dubai Municipality noise-restricted zones.
Do you rent generators for events and weddings in Dubai?
Yes. We supply ultra-silent (60–70 dB) generators with synchronised AMF panels, distribution boards and step-down transformers for weddings, exhibitions, concerts, film shoots, expos and corporate events anywhere in the UAE.
How long can a rental generator run continuously?
Our diesel generators can run 24/7 for the entire rental period. Built-in fuel tanks last 8–24 hours depending on load and capacity. We provide scheduled refuelling so the unit never stops — ideal for hospitals, data centres and continuous construction operations.
What brands of generators do you have?
Our fleet includes Perkins, Cummins, Caterpillar, Volvo, Kohler, John Deere, Denyo, Honda, Yamaha and Generac generators. All units are serviced every 250 hours and load-tested before each delivery.
Do you supply welding generators in the UAE?
Yes. We rent diesel-powered welding generators (200A–600A) suitable for stick, MIG and TIG welding on pipelines, structural steel and oil & gas projects. Brands include Miller, Lincoln Electric and Denyo.
Compactors
Common questions about compactors from HAR Machinery Rentals in Dubai and the UAE.
What types of compactors does HAR Machinery Rentals rent?
We rent plate compactors (60–200 kg) for sand and asphalt, vibratory rammers (jumping jacks) for trench compaction, and ride-on tandem rollers (1–14 ton) for road and large-area compaction. All are diesel or petrol powered with daily / weekly / monthly rates.
What is the difference between a plate compactor and a rammer?
A plate compactor compacts wide flat surfaces (sand, gravel, asphalt) using vibration. A rammer (jumping jack) delivers high-impact force in a small footprint, ideal for trenches, around pipes, narrow areas and cohesive soils like clay.
Air compressors
Common questions about air compressors from HAR Machinery Rentals in Dubai and the UAE.
What size air compressor do I need for jackhammers in Dubai?
A single 25 kg jackhammer needs ~125 CFM. Two jackhammers running together need 185–260 CFM. Pipeline projects with sandblasting need 400+ CFM. We rent diesel screw compressors from 80 CFM to 1100 CFM with hoses, manifolds and breakers.

Do you supply scaffolding with erection and dismantling?
Yes. We supply Cup-Lock, Ringlock and frame scaffolding with TR-rated certified scaffolders, drawings, hand-over inspection and Dubai Municipality / RTA approval documents. Available for daily, weekly or monthly hire.
