Excavators

1.7 Tonne to 50 Tonne. Dry Hire Ready.

Twenty-two excavators across four weight classes, available across South East Queensland.

The Range

The Right Size for the Job.

Pick the class that suits the site — tight-access mini, midi for drainage and footings, standard for bulk earthworks, or large for major civil. We confirm the exact machine and its fitout in writing when we quote, before anything is booked.

Mini — 0 to 5 Tonne

Tight access, landscaping, residential and service work where footprint matters more than reach.
