Why hire a digger with a driver?
Hiring a mini digger with an operator means you do not need a trained driver of your own, and the work gets done faster and more safely. Our drivers have a wealth of experience on a range of mini diggers and projects, and our rates are competitive.
Dig, load and take it away
Combine mini digger hire with our muck away, grab hire or tipper hire and the spoil is removed as you go. When the dig is finished we can deliver Type 1 for your sub-base or screened topsoil for landscaping.
Whether you are a residential customer or a commercial contractor, our experience ensures your project is carried out to a high standard, at a fair price and on schedule.
Planning a mini digger job
Before we start, we will talk through access to the site, what is being dug and where the spoil will go. Mini diggers can work in back gardens and tight spaces where larger machines cannot reach, and our operators take care to protect lawns, paths and boundaries as they work.
For driveway and patio projects we can dig out to the depth you need, remove the spoil by grab lorry and deliver the Type 1 for your sub-base, so the whole groundwork stage is handled by one local firm.
