3ft and 4ft Cricket Rollers Available to Hire

 

Our hire fleet includes both 3ft and 4ft Auto-Rollers, allowing clubs to choose a machine suited to their ground, working requirements and pitch maintenance programme.

​

3ft Auto-Roller Hire

 

The 3ft Auto-Roller has a rolling width of 915mm and is the smaller of our two hire options.

​

Its more compact dimensions and lower weight make it a practical choice where manoeuvrability, access or machine size is an important consideration.

​

The 3ft Auto-Roller features power steering, electric start and a hydrostatic transmission for straightforward operation during pitch preparation.

​

4ft Auto-Roller Hire

 

The 4ft Auto-Roller has a rolling width of 1220mm and provides a larger, heavier alternative for cricket pitch preparation.

​

It features power steering, electric start and an infinitely variable hydrostatic transmission, providing straightforward control during rolling.

​

Choosing between the two should be based on the size and requirements of the ground, available access and the club's pitch maintenance programme.

​

How Long Can I Hire a Cricket Roller For?

 

Our minimum cricket roller hire period is 10 weeks.

​

This gives clubs access to the machine for an extended period rather than restricting hire to individual match days or short-term pitch preparation.

​

If you require a roller for longer than the minimum hire period, reach out to us with your required dates and we can discuss the options and current availability.

​

When enquiring, it is helpful to provide:

​

• Your club or organisation name

• Delivery location

• Preferred roller size, if known

• Required delivery date

• Expected hire period

 

Longer requirements can be considered according to fleet availability.

​

How Much Does Cricket Roller Hire Cost?

 

The cost of hiring an Auto-Roller can depend on your requirements, including the machine you need, the length of the hire and delivery arrangements.

​

For this reason, please contact Auto-Roller for a hire quotation based on your club's requirements.

​

Providing your preferred dates, location and required roller size when you enquire will help our team deal with your request.

​

Not sure which roller you need? Tell us about your ground and requirements and we can discuss the available options.

​

When Should You Book Your Cricket Roller?

 

Cricket roller requirements are naturally seasonal, with clubs carrying out important pitch preparation ahead of and during the playing season.

​

For that reason, it is sensible to discuss your requirements as early as possible, particularly if you need a specific roller size or have fixed dates in mind.

​

Availability can vary, so contacting us early gives our team the opportunity to discuss the hire fleet and your preferred dates.

​

Do not wait until you urgently need a machine.

​

If your club knows that it will require a roller for the coming season, get in touch with us on +44 (0)1380 850885 and start planning your hire.

​

How to Book a Cricket Roller

 

Booking starts with a straightforward enquiry.

​

1. Tell Us What You Need

Let us know your club or organisation, location, required dates and whether you are interested in a 3ft or 4ft Auto-Roller.

​

2. Discuss the Right Roller

If you are unsure which machine is suitable, our team can discuss your requirements with you. You can also compare our 3ft Auto-Roller and 4ft Auto-Roller before enquiring.

​

3. Confirm Availability and Costs

We will discuss current availability, the required hire period and the applicable quotation.

​

4. Arrange Your Hire

Once the details have been agreed, delivery and the practical arrangements for your hire can be confirmed.

​

Why Hire an Auto-Roller?

 

Hiring can make sense when your club needs access to a cricket roller without immediately investing in another machine.

​

It may be particularly useful when:

​

• You need a roller for seasonal pitch preparation

• Your existing cricket roller is temporarily unavailable

• Your current machine requires repair, servicing or refurbishment

• You want access to an additional roller for part of the season

• Your club is considering its longer-term equipment requirements

 

With 3ft and 4ft machines available, clubs can discuss the option that best suits their ground and pitch maintenance programme.

​

Hiring This Season? Think About Next Season Too

 

Hiring a cricket roller may solve your immediate requirement, but it can also be a good opportunity to consider what your club needs in the longer term.

​

If you already own an Auto-Roller, regular maintenance can help keep the machine reliable and ready for pitch preparation.

​

Find out more about our Auto-Roller servicing or read our guide to end-of-season Auto-Roller servicing and filter kits.

​

If your existing roller is becoming unreliable, winter can also provide an opportunity to consider rebuilding it rather than immediately replacing the complete machine.

​

Depending on the condition of your machine, options can include a Re-Power Kit, factory refurbishment, a reconditioned Auto-Roller or replacement with a new machine.

​

Read our guide: Winter Builds: Is It Worth Rebuilding Your Cricket Roller, or Should the Club Buy New?

 

Planning ahead gives your club time to consider the options rather than making an equipment decision immediately before the next cricket season.
