Operated Scarab Minor Hire

JPM Contractors Ltd Scarab Minor

The Scarab Minor Road Sweeper

 

The Scarab Minor Road Sweeper can be seen here giving a pre-clean of the granite paved area prior to it being cleaned with a specially formulated stone cleaner. The Scarab Minor is removing any litter and debris from the pavement.

The Scarab Minor is ideally suited to this type of environment where a full size road sweeper can’t be deployed due to weight restrictions.

POWER

Although the Scarab Minor is a smaller road sweeper, it still has all of the power needed to clean full size roads and small paved areas as can be seen here. We have the Scarab Minor available as and Operated Machine or as a Self Drive Scarab.

The Scarab Minor has a Gulley Brush, a Belly Brush and two front brushes for complete coverage, great for Car Parks!

JPM Contractors Ltd is proud to announce the addition of Johnston Compactor Sweepers for self drive hire through it’s sister company UK Sweepers Ltd.

These smaller road sweepers are ideal for public areas due to the low noise of the sweeper. Compact sweepers are also highly manoeuvrable making them extremely versatile in areas with large amounts of street furniture.

One of the most attractive features of the Compact Sweeper is the ability to tip the waste collected into standard height wheeled bins, avoiding the need for costly journey’s to and from prearranged tipping sites.

With this amount of sweeping power in such a small road sweeper, Trigger will soon be out of a job!

Below is the promotional video from Johnston Sweepers with more information regarding these powerful, versatile sweeping machines.
