The hedges need cutting and the season does not wait. If you are looking for hedge cutter hire near me in Reading, our Winnersh depot stocks four options from lightweight battery trimmers to loader-mounted hydraulic arms. No minimum hire on hand-held cutters. Call 0118 979 2828.
Hedge Cutters Available to Hire
Four distinct types covering residential trimming through to professional agricultural hedge management. Battery cutters for light domestic use. Standard petrol for established garden boundaries. Long reach for tall hedges from ground level. Avant S30 hydraulic for farms and estate programmes covering kilometres of hedgerow. Full specifications for the hedge cutter range are listed in the Coppard online catalogue.
Choosing the Right Hedge Cutter
Your choice depends on hedge height, stem thickness and volume of work. A battery cutter handles a domestic boundary in an afternoon. A long reach cutter works hedges up to 3.5 to 4 metres from ground level without a ladder. The Avant S30 covers farm estate hedgerow from the cab — the hydraulic arm follows the hedge profile without repositioning. For renovation cuts on severely overgrown hedges, the standard petrol or S30 provides the power for thick multi-stem growth that a battery cutter would struggle with. Call 0118 979 2828 and describe the hedge — we will recommend the best cutter.
Hedge Cutter Hire for Farms and Estates Across the Thames Valley
Berkshire and the Thames Valley have significant hedgerow networks requiring annual or biennial trimming. Farmers and estate managers across Reading, Wokingham, Bracknell, Earley, Woodley and Shinfield, Pangbourne, Twyford and Henley-on-Thames regularly hire the Avant S30 in conjunction with the Avant loader for the annual programme. Landscaping contractors managing multiple properties find that hiring a long reach cutter for a week and working through a round of tall hedges is more cost-effective than buying. Looking for hedge cutter hire near me? Call 0118 979 2828.
Hedge Cutter Hire for Residential Projects
For domestic hedges, the battery or standard petrol cutter handles most boundaries in a single hire day. Taller hedges — privet, leylandii, laurel that has got away from you — need the long reach to work safely from ground level. Do not use a hedge cutter from a ladder. If the hedge is beyond long reach range, a cherry picker is the correct solution.

Frequently Asked Questions — Hedge Cutter Hire
What stem diameter can a petrol cutter handle?
Standard petrol trimmers handle stems up to about 25mm. Thicker stems on overgrown hedges may jam the machine. For heavily overgrown hedges, the Avant S30 or a chainsaw is more appropriate.
How tall a hedge can the long reach cutter reach?
Around 3.5 to 4 metres above ground level from a standing position. For taller hedges, a cherry picker or access platform is the correct solution.
Do I need PPE?
Yes. Face protection is essential — blades throw debris at speed. Sturdy gloves, long sleeves and hearing protection for extended petrol use.
Can I use the long reach cutter from a ladder?
Not recommended. Combining working at height with vibrating cutting equipment significantly increases injury risk. The long reach cutter is designed for ground-level use.
Is there a minimum hire period?
No minimum for battery, petrol or long reach cutters — day rate applies. The Avant S30 is typically hired by the week. Call 0118 979 2828 to confirm.
