Avant Attachment Hire in Reading, Berkshire
A business park groundcare round covers mowing strips, sweeping car parks and shifting the odd pallet of bedding plants. Our Reading depot keeps the Avant attachments on hand for all three.
A groundcare round rarely does one job all day. Our Reading depot matches the attachment to whichever task the round is on, not the machine alone.
Groundcare Rounds Need Several Fittings
A business park groundcare contract usually covers verge cutting, car park sweeping and seasonal bedding changes across the same visit. Each task needs a different attachment on the same Avant loader.
Carrying three separate machines to cover that one visit rarely makes sense, especially where the contractor is moving between several sites in a day.
Swapping attachments on one machine instead keeps the round moving. Tell the depot the typical tasks on a visit, and a set of attachments can be kept ready for that contract. A visit running short on time can also mean one task gets skipped that week rather than rushed, and flagging that in advance means the attachment list sent out matches what will actually get done, rather than carrying extra kit that never leaves the trailer.
Our Avant Attachment Range
Our Reading stock covers brushes, forks, buckets and flail mowers, built to fit the Avant loaders already in our fleet. Every other hire service run from this depot sits on our Reading Forklift Rental Service page, with fitting details for each attachment set out on our Avant Attachments collection.
Describe the round and its typical tasks, and our team can usually suggest which attachments to keep on hand for that contract.
Ring 0118 979 2828 and a set matched to your Berkshire round gets booked on that same call. A hedge trimmer head is also available where a contract includes formal hedging alongside the usual mowing and sweeping work. A hedge cutting schedule can also be agreed in advance for the season.
Avant Attachment Hire for Reading and Wokingham Rounds
Business park contracts near the motorway often need the brush and bucket more than anything else, since car park sweeping and bedding changes make up most of a typical visit.
Verge and hedge work further out tends to lean more on the flail mower, where growth is less tightly managed than on a formal business park frontage.
Mention which tasks make up most of the round, since that decides which attachments get kept ready rather than ordered in for each visit. A seasonal contract reviewed every few months rather than fixed for a full year also tends to suit this kind of varied groundcare work better, since growth rates and task mix both shift through the year.
What's Included With Every Attachment
A fitting check and a short walk-round happen with every attachment, whichever one is going onto the Avant loader that day.
Hoses, pins and mounting brackets are included in the hire price, and ordinary wear through the job is never charged for separately.
Need a different attachment once the season changes the work? Ring 0118 979 2828 and a swap can usually reach the round before the next scheduled visit. A blunt flail blade is also replaced as part of routine maintenance between visits, not charged to the contract as extra wear, since regular cutting naturally dulls the blades over a season. This keeps every visit running to the same standard across a contract.
Why Choose Coppard

Ring 0118 979 2828 for a straight answer on price and availability. Nobody here pushes a booking before you are ready to make one. Keeping the right set of attachments on a contract saves more time across a season than paying for extra machines. That matters most across a long-running contract, where swapping attachments smoothly keeps the visit on schedule rather than running long into the next stop on the round.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I keep a set of attachments on a standing contract?
Yes, this is one of the more regular arrangements our Reading depot sets up for business park groundcare rounds. Describe the typical visit, and a set of attachments can be kept ready and swapped in as the round requires rather than booked fresh each time. A seasonal review of the attachment set also helps, since growth patterns and task priorities both shift across a year on most business park contracts. Update the depot whenever the round changes shape.
What attachment suits sweeping a car park?
A brush attachment is the usual choice for car park and pathway sweeping, built to fit the Avant loaders already in our fleet. Mention if the surface has block paving or loose gravel, since that can affect which brush type suits the job best. Block paving in particular benefits from a softer brush setting than loose gravel, to avoid disturbing the joints between the blocks over repeated visits.
How quickly can attachments be delivered for a new contract?
Most Berkshire bookings are confirmed within the week, often sooner where the attachments needed are already in stock at the Reading depot. Ring early in the day for the best chance of a same-week start on a new groundcare contract. Existing customers moving from one contractor to Coppard can usually start even sooner, since the attachment set needed is often already known from the previous arrangement.
Can the flail mower handle overgrown verges?
Yes, the flail mower attachment is built for rougher growth than a standard mower blade, suiting verges and hedgerows that have not been cut recently. Describe how overgrown the area is and a suitable attachment gets confirmed for that visit. A lighter trim setting is also available for more formal frontages, where growth is cut back regularly rather than left to build up between visits.
What UK rules cover using groundcare attachments?
The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 set out duties for equipment used at work, which applies to attachments fitted to an Avant loader. Coppard checks and records every attachment before hire, so that side is sorted before it leaves our yard. Fitting should always be checked after a swap, before the next task begins. This applies on every round. The same check applies whichever attachment is fitted that day.
