Digger Hire

What is a Mini Digger?

A mini digger is normally classed as a machine up to the weight of 6 metric tons. It is instantly easy to spot this type of digger due to the size. Much like their larger counterparts, mini diggers are designed with a tracked chassis, either road liner pads or steel tracked.

What can a Digger be used for?

Diggers are ideal bits of kit for digging foundations for an extension, drainage pits in your garden, or maybe even a large pond or swimming pool, whatever requirement you have for moving tons of earth. This digger will make light work of it.

Do you need a License to Operate a Digger?

One of the great advantages of diggers is that they’re easy to operate and don’t require a formal license when being used on private worksites, although you will need a license if you plan on driving it on a public road. Equally, if it is being used on a commercial project or land, then you may require the appropriate certification.

Is it hard to Operate a Digger?

Diggers are fairly easy to drive once you learn the controls and get used to the machine’s movements. The ease of operation depends on the size, functions, and complexity of the device.

Mini and micro diggers are designed with the basic attachments – a front shovel, a boom, and a swinging bucket – which offer the driver powerful tools within a small footprint.

Are Mini Diggers and Micro Diggers the same thing?

The difference between all diggers is generally down to their features, size and weight. For example, mini and micro diggers are practically the same machine, but a mini digger is slightly larger in size and weight.

What’s the difference between a Diggers and a Excavator?

To put it simply, a digger is a nickname for an excavator. Excavators have the ability to make a large hole or channel in the ground and carefully remove the earth from that area. Although you may have heard of diggers, excavators are exactly the same thing.
