About · Brisbane since 1960
We hire temporary power poles, portaloos and solar security cameras, and supply permanent power poles, from our depot in Capalaba. Builders, councils, project managers and event organisers have hired from us since 1960.
Poles and Holes started out supplying temporary power poles to Queensland building sites.
Custom-built heavy rigid crane trucks joined the fleet, so one visit could dig the hole and stand the pole. Today, pole installation, electricity-network connection and retailer metering are separate stages, with their own arrangements and timeframes.
Doug and Deb bought the business as its third owners and added portable toilet hire.

CAPALABA DEPOT
Deliveries run from here across South East Queensland. The trailer-mounted portaloo is collected from the depot, so it has no delivery fee.
