There are various situations in which a large bobcat is either unnecessary or not even a viable option. From smaller projects to tight entry, a mini digger can be the right choice for your project.
Dobson Excavations is an Australian Family Owned and Operated Earthmoving and Excavation Company. Contact us today if you are looking for a specialist who can advise and provide you with the right excavator.
Do you have a construction, landscaping, or any other project that requires an excavator? It is natural to assume that a full-size excavator is the best choice for all major earthmoving jobs, but this is not entirely true. While full-size excavators are indeed powerful machines, they are not necessary for projects that you can handle with mini bobcat hire. Some situations make the mini bobcat an excellent option. Some of the factors that make compact excavators ideal include;
Not all sites are open spaces. Some have existing buildings and other structures, like garages and carports, which may hinder access to certain areas for a full-size excavator. In this case, a mini excavator hire becomes a necessary addition to the equipment you need to work on all sections of the site successfully.
It can also be used in the extraction and movement of materials from one section of the construction site to another. Dobson Excavations also has a 790mm wide Walker Nelson DT08 mini dump truck that can be used together with mini excavator hire to facilitate the movement of building materials.
A mini bobcat hire is also ideal if you are carrying out an extensive landscaping project that cannot be effectively done with simple garden tools. Other earthmoving projects that can easily be accomplished when you choose mini digger hire, including digging trenches for drainage and cable installations.
The mini excavator is also a great choice if you are working on more than one site, and require the frequent movement of machinery from one place to another. Given its compact size, the mini excavator is a great asset for small to medium-sized projects. For example, you can use to ease movement of materials between sites, digging utility trenches, drilling and backfilling, removal of tree stumps, and small demolition works.
Mini excavator hire is sometimes the more practical option compared to larger excavators. It could be because the site is not ideal for large excavators or the project itself does not warrant the use of huge and heavy machinery. Mini excavators offer the same full range of motion that larger excavator models do.
Mini digger hire is also a good move because the cabs have a 360-degree turn capability which makes loading and dumping easy. Mini excavators also have improved traction, which has made it safe enough to use in almost any location, irrespective of the ground condition.
Before you decide on the type of excavator you need, you should assess the tasks to determine if the mini will work just as well as the large excavator. Don’t just look at the capabilities of the mini excavator, but its unique advantages and how you can use them on your site.

Sometimes mini trench digger hire is the perfect solution when digging trenches in areas with established infrastructure, so there is little space for the earth being dug out and for the excavator to manoeuvre.
Mini digger hire will also limit possible damage to infrastructure, especially those that were not constructed to accommodate heavy machinery. Large excavators tend to damage roads and pavements because of their weight. This is why mini trench digger can be preferred to larger models. You don’t want to incur unnecessary repair costs because you used heavy machinery in places where the mini excavator would have worked just fine.
The mini excavator also has easy controls which help save time usually spent adjusting controls in the larger models. Your mini digger hire will help you complete the digging the trench much faster than larger excavators. The attachments of the mini excavator also make backfilling of trenches after the installation of pipes and cables. When you contact Dobson Excavations with a request for an excavator, we will discuss with you the project and guide you on whether you need a large model excavator or if the mini digger hire will suffice.

Trenching and Loading
Mini digger for hire is favoured for digging narrow trenches. They are also the perfect option for trenches that don’t need to be too deep, such as those for utility pipe installations. While it is important to consider the type of trench you need and the available mini excavator attachments, you also need to consider the space you have available for the spoil pile and bedding material.Sometimes mini trench digger hire is the perfect solution when digging trenches in areas with established infrastructure, so there is little space for the earth being dug out and for the excavator to manoeuvre.
