Excellent service! And an excellent machine! Helped me out at short notice. Wouldn’t hesitate to use again. Highly recommend!
Delivered on time, machines feel brand new, very polite staff, easy to book, will now be using this company for all my digger hires, honest review from a general builder who has had plenty of digger hires from other companies that aren’t as good as Breckland plant and tool hire
Great service from Start to finish would definitely recommend and use again
Long Reach Hedge Cutter — Tackle tall hedges, banks and verges with ease
The Breckland Long Reach Hedge Cutter is a heavy-duty, extendable boom hedge cutter built for contractors, landscapers and groundworkers who need to trim high hedges, steep embankments and roadside verges safely and quickly. Available to hire now from our Attleborough depot, with delivery within 20 miles of Attleborough and Wymondham or free collection from our yard.
What this machine is
This is a powered long-reach hedge cutter with an adjustable telescopic boom and a rotating cutter head. It gives you cutting access several metres above ground level without scaffolding or ladders, making it ideal for tall hedgerows, ditches and inaccessible slopes.
Jobs it’s suited for
- Trimming tall hedges and roadside growth
- Maintaining embankments and ditches
- Cutting back overgrown verges and inaccessible areas
- Seasonal site clearances and estate maintenance
Key specs & features
- Telescopic boom for extended reach and safer working at height
- Rotating, adjustable cutter head for angled cuts and profiling
- Robust reciprocating blade for clean cutting of fresh and woody growth
- Easy-to-use controls for single-operator use (where safe and appropriate)
- Designed for quick attachment and straightforward transport
Why hire rather than buy?
For most tradespeople and self-builders a hire is the sensible choice. You get a professionally maintained machine only when you need it, without the purchase cost, storage headache or ongoing maintenance. Hiring the Long Reach Hedge Cutter from Breckland gives you immediate access to a powerful, job-ready machine — and we deliver within 20 miles of Attleborough and Wymondham or you can take advantage of free collection. Breckland are CPA members and offer exclusive trade account discounts for regular hires.
Operator & safety notes
- Only trained operators should use this plant. Read the operator manual and conduct a site risk assessment before starting.
- Always check for overhead services and keep clear of power lines.
- Wear full PPE: eye protection, ear protection, gloves and hi-vis. Secure or clear the work area to keep bystanders at a safe distance.
- Do not use in high winds or on unstable ground. Maintain a stable base and never overreach.
- Refuel outdoors with the engine stopped and cool. Inspect blades and mounts before each hire.
If you need a machine for tight hedgerows or lower-level trimming, we also stock other cutters and attachments — view our Long Reach Hedge Cutter details on the product page and call Breckland Plant Hire to discuss the best option for your job.
