Overview

AI-generated overview

Local MCP server for UK construction plant hire: search equipment, quote rentals, check availability, book hire, get safety checklists and transport costs.

What you can do
  • Search the plant hire catalog by type, capacity or keyword, with specs and daily/weekly rates
  • Calculate rental quotes for a hire period, including delivery and collection
  • Check equipment availability for a date range across depots
  • Create rental bookings with delivery address, hire dates and contact details
  • Retrieve HSE-compliant pre-use safety checklists by equipment type
  • Estimate transport costs for delivery and collection from a site postcode and equipment dimensions
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs to help with UK construction equipment rental: quoting excavator, dumper or roller hire, checking depot availability, planning transport for heavy plant, or working through multi-item booking and LOLER/PUWER safety workflows.
Requirements
Runs locally over stdio as a Python package (pip install planthire_ai_mcp, or launched via uvx). No authentication, environment variables or headers are declared. A desktop MCP client such as Claude Desktop is needed to configure it.
Before you install
The create_booking tool submits a rental booking with delivery address and contact details, so confirm details before it runs. The README states a free tier of 10 calls per day per MCP and advertises paid tiers and Stripe purchase links; treat pricing and compliance claims as vendor marketing rather than verified facts.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Planthire Ai Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.
