Earthmoving and Excavation Hire Darwin

Dobson excavations are your one-stop contractors for all your excavation and earthmoving needs in Darwin. We offer a range of earthmoving machinery for hire in Darwin and across the Northern Territory.

We are a NT family-owned and operated earthmoving and construction business which has been reliably in operation for over two decades, servicing the greater Darwin region within Northern Territory. With an extensive fleet of machinery, our services accommodate for domestic, commercial and rural site preparations ranging from small jobs such as tight access or limited space to larger projects such as dam constructions/Land clearing or commercial sites..

We are competitively priced, and importantly, all our machinery and drivers are fully licensed, have public liability insurance and have a fully insured workers compensation policy. We are also up to date with necessary certifications to ensure each and every job is done safely, professionally and according to the highest standards, giving you greater peace of mind.

Now you no longer have the hassle of searching for, hiring and co-ordinating multiple contractors, which can be bothersome administratively and practically, especially if there are delays in on-site preparation timings. With Dobson Excavations, we can do everything sequentially, working flexibly around your timelines. And rather than juggling billing to multiple contractors across varied timelines, all is billed and managed by us.
