What is an Excavator?

An excavator is a piece of heavy machinery that is commonly used in construction in The Cape. You may hear excavators also referred to as diggers because they are primarily used for digging work, but they can offer much more than this.

An excavator is made up of several main parts, including the boom, dipper or stick, bucket, and cab. All of these take place on the rotating platform of the machine, which is also on wheels for maximum versatility. These kinds of machines come from brands such as JCB and Caterpillar and you can find them on most construction sites in the UK.

There are different kinds of excavators available, which generally refers to the way they get their power. For example, a hydraulic excavator works with hydraulic cylinders, hydraulic fluid, and hydraulic motors, which are used in the digging work. With this in mind, a hydraulic excavator is very different from cable-operated excavators, for example, not only in their functions but controls.

As well as being categorised based on their power, these kinds of machines are also categorised based on their weight in kg, which determines their performance. The operating weight (in kg) of an excavator will determine when and where it can be used.

To ensure we can meet the needs of all our The Cape clients, we have a large range of diggers available to hire at all times. We cover all needs, from compact excavators to wheeled excavators and hydraulic excavators, to ensure we can reach a wide audience.

An excavator is ideal to use in a variety of jobs, and our hire service aims to make things easier.

Excavator Hire Benefits

Many benefits come with hiring excavators, including:

  • It can be more affordable

Instead of buying a machine that has one operation, you can rent it from us and spread the cost. This way you do not have to break the bank but still have access to what you need. These powerful tools do not come cheap in The Cape, but this price tag won't matter if you can rent them, as this makes them more affordable.

  • Flexible rental periods

Instead of having a powerful machine on-site at all times, renting it is ideal as it allows you to have access to it when you need it. You will reach for the machine when it is needed, and it will not take up space on the site after this.

  • Various options available

The progress of your project does not have to stop in its tracks because you do not have the ideal equipment on site, as this is where we come in. We have every design, weight (kg), and capacity of the excavator and its attachments available to hire.

This ensures that you can reach your deadline, no matter how tight it may be, as we have the diggers you need. We can deliver them to your site at a time that suits you and ensure that your work is taken off the ground, regardless of what may be trying to stop you.

Hiring excavators in The Cape is an ideal service for many people and we aim to meet all needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to rent an excavator for a day UK?

Renting an excavator in the UK can start at around £80 per day, VAT excluded. The price will vary based on the type of excavators you need, such as their kg weight.

Is it worth hiring a mini digger?

Compact excavators can be useful in a range of circumstances. The smallest compact excavator starts at 930kg, and this can be very useful in compact areas. With such a small starting weight of just over 900 kg in most cases, a mini digger is ideal for residential hire and use in small areas.

They can also feature a bucket, arm, and rotating cab but on a smaller scale for tight spaces.

Do you need a Licence for a mini digger?

Operating a mini digger of around 930 kg or more, then a license may be needed. To use this on private property, you will not need a license, but if this will feature on main roads and other public areas, then an additional license may be required.

How much dirt can an excavator move in an hour?

On average, 20-tonne excavators are reported to move 490 tons of dirt per hour, based on specific brands. This can vary based on the bucket, the type of digger used, and whether any other feature is required.

Are excavators hard to run?

Driving and using an excavator for the first time may be difficult, which is why additional training may be required. Controlling this equipment on uneven terrain or in tight spaces can also be difficult and requires training.

How many feet can an excavator dig in a day?

An efficient excavator can dig between 350 to 1000 cubic yards in a day, based on the kind you are using and the kind of attachments used.
