Adelaide
Hanson Hire sells diesel and petrol generators with delivery to Adelaide and across South Australia, including the Barossa, the Riverland and the Limestone Coast. Freight is quoted live from your postcode at checkout.
Adelaide sites rarely run one simple load, so we match the generator to the starting current rather than the running kilowatts, from an Elizabeth workshop to a Barossa packing shed.

Generators for South Australia's mixed loads
A Lonsdale workshop might start a 15 kW motor beside welders and lights, while a packing shed wants quiet overnight backup. Motors draw several times their running current at start, so we check the starting load first and size the alternator to hold through it.
What Adelaide buyers choose
Portable petrol and inverter units cover trade work, events and home backup across the metro area and the Hills. Standby diesel from 20 kVA upward suits workshops, cold stores and farm infrastructure, in single or three-phase. Automatic transfer switch packages are available where power needs to return without anyone on site.
Delivery across South Australia
Every set is tested before dispatch, then freighted to Adelaide metro, the Barossa, the Riverland, the Limestone Coast and the Spencer Gulf. Add your postcode at checkout for a live freight price, or send the site address for bunded or oversized units.

Local FAQ
Generators in Adelaide: common questions
01Do you deliver generators to Adelaide and regional South Australia?+
Yes. Sets are freighted to Adelaide metro and across South Australia, including the Barossa, the Riverland, the Limestone Coast and the Spencer Gulf. Freight is calculated from your postcode at checkout.
02How do I size a generator for a workshop with motors?+
Size on starting current, not running power. Motors draw several times their rated current at start, so tell us the largest motor or welder, whether it starts under load, and what else runs at the same time, and we will size the alternator to suit.
03Can a generator run a cold store or farm shed overnight?+
Yes. Standby diesel sets from 20 kVA upward are the usual choice, with automatic transfer switching so the load moves to the generator when mains power drops and returns when it comes back.
