✅How to choose the right digger for your project

Micro Diggers (0.8 – 1.5T)

• Best for tight spaces, garden projects, and indoor/outdoor access.

• Fits through doorways and gates.

• Mini Diggers (1.5 – 3T)

• Versatile for small-to-medium construction or landscaping jobs.

• Good balance of power and maneuverability.

• Midi Diggers (3 – 5T)

• Great for bigger residential jobs (extensions, driveways, large gardens).

• Large Diggers (6 – 8T)

• Suited for heavy-duty projects, foundations, and commercial work.

✅Match Digger to Project Type

Garden landscaping → Micro or Mini Digger

• Driveway prep → Mini or Midi Digger

• Building foundations → Large Digger

• Restricted access projects → Micro Digger

• Commercial sites → 6–8T Digger

✅Factors to Consider Before Choosing

• Access width & height – Can it get through gates, fences, or doors?

• Ground conditions – Soft ground vs. hard soil.

• Depth/volume of dig – How much soil needs shifting?

• Transport & delivery – How the machine will get to site.

• Operator experience – First-timers may prefer smaller machines.

 

🚚Before hiring, it’s important to consider access points, ground conditions, how much material you’ll need to move, delivery logistics, and your own operator experience. With the right match, you’ll not only save time but also avoid costly mistakes.
