Hire a Satellite Phone
7-day Satellite phone hire from $150 including GST, delivery, and return shipping. Your standard GSM mobile phones are often unsuitable in remote locations. SatPhones communicate directly with satellites, allowing you to maintain communication as long as they can ‘see’ the satellite.
Each device has its own set of strengths and weaknesses – our 22 years of experience can help you ensure you get the right device for your needs. We also offer a try-before-you-buy option so you can hire or rent a SatPhone and receive part of the rental fee as a credit on a resulting purchase.

We’ve married up thousands of different equipment solutions to people doing totally different things, with different needs. We know what works well and where; or more importantly, what doesn’t work! Full pricing info here
Personal Locator Beacons
The PLB is essentially the same as an EPIRB, just a smaller version, so it conveniently fits in your pocket when out and about. Perfect for bushwalkers, sailors and hikers. Our PLBs all have built-in GPS that allows rescue services to locate your position within 10 minutes to approximately 5 metres. You’ll find our great rates here!
Safety Equipment for the Epic Larapinta Trail
If you are taking on the breathtaking Larapinta Trail this winter, you should consider hiring a Satellite Phone or PLB*. We can look after you with either or both of these devices. NT Government say “You should carry some form of emergency communication such as a satellite phone or personal locator beacon. Don’t rely on mobile phones”.

Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons
An EPIRB uses dedicated distress signals to send out coded signals in the case of an emergency on your boat. An EPIRB is about the size of a shoe and importantly, will float next to you if the boat is compromised.
Our EPIRB fleet has built-in GPS that allows rescue services to locate your position within 10 minutes to approximately 5 metres.
Satellite Tracking
See who’s leading the pack in your remote event. Keep an eye on friends and family who are travelling the remote stretches of Australia or the Globe. Watch over Duke of Edinburgh participants at large.
Upfront, ‘No Surprises’ Pricing! $10 in free calls with phone hires!
When you call for a chat/advice, our price will include GST, an active device, delivery and a return bag. There will be no surprises or extra fees. It is important to us that you know how to get the most out of your phone when needed. Satellite phone handsets are not as easy as normal mobile phones and knowing how to use them correctly will make a huge difference. Our commitment to you is, that we will offer you up to $10 in free calls to practice before you leave.
Satellite Communications Australia-Wide
If you’re working in remote locations, you need more than just a mobile phone or GPS. If it’s an emergency beacon or voice/text contact back at base, EPIRBhire can help you find the best solution. Whether you are looking to rent, hire or buy a satphone, defibrillator, beacon or communicator.
Life-Saving Technology from EPIRBhire
EPIRBhire has been Australia’s leading provider of EPIRB, PLB, and Satellite Phones for hire and sales since 2002. Our emergency communication devices have directly contributed to 31 rescues since then, saving 26 people in total – four of whom were in dire, life-threatening circumstances.
Are you heading to remote areas out of range from the usual communications? Our suggestion, first and foremost to take a PLB. A PLB is a dedicated one-off use device with a sealed battery with a life of 5 to 10 years. When activated it transmits a very strong signal on frequencies covering three redundancies that will inform the Australian Rescue Coordination Centre of your location within 5 metres of anywhere on the planet.
Note: The PLB is a far cry from a red SOS button on a phone or tracker that may have a flat battery at the wrong time. There are many more reasons why Panic buttons on devices are not ideal, but they are better than nothing and the two-way communication is reassuring.
Our Advice; take a satellite phone and a PLB (we offer the PLB at half price with a phone hire).
Starlink Satellite Data available Australia-wide – would you like a test run?
We have been operating one of our offices via Starlink data services for almost 2 years. If you’re interested to know more about our experience or have a test run before you buy, give us a call!
StarLink is a great product; sadly the speed is dropping. We started at 300mbps, then 200 to 100 and now mostly well under 100 with the standard Rural or RV.
Thousands of Happy Customers
At EPIRBhire we have extensive experience and thousands of happy customers. We tell you exactly what to expect when you hire equipment with us so you shouldn’t expect any surprises. We provide a $10 phone credit so you can familiarise yourself with the device before you leave because we don’t want the first time you might use the satellite phone to be in an emergency.
Feel free to check out some of our over 200 reviews, most all of them 5 Stars. See Google or Facebook
