Digger Hire with Driver Sheffield
A digger compared to many other vehicles has a complicated set of user operator options and hiring one of our diggers with an experienced operators will generally be the best option, certainly for residential customers but also for a number of businesses who appreciate that mechanical excavation will have many advantages over manual excavation.
Our drivers focus on ensuring that current health and safety procedures are upheld at alll times but more improtantly, especially when working around less experienced people will take extra care when working in a tight environment. Experience will allow speedy operation whilst maintaining high safety standards.
As a result if you are a homeowner or a contractor such as a landscaping business requiring additional service we can add value to your team and your customers too at very affordable rates which really stack up in a larger landscaping project.
Our micro digger is a 1 tonne Kubota — one of the most trusted names in compact excavation equipment. Even though it is small in size it certainly punches above its weight.
It is perfect to operate in small spaces as its adjustable tracks means that is can manoeuvre into spaces that many other diggers simply can't get to and as a result make mechanical digging not possible. Once in place the tracks can then be opened out to provide a more stable base to work from allowing it to utilise its power and get the job done.
it also operates with low emissions. The design of the digger has been though through so that the hydraulic pipes are hidden to minimise damage of them when in tight spaces. With quick release bucket pins changing the end attachment is quick and easy enabling maximum working time to be achieved.
Our 3 tonne mini digger is a similar beast, able to provide exceptional power along with versatility, practical design along with comfort and safetl features in use.
Power is delivered through a diesel engine that still provides exceptionally low emissions.
This model also has adjustable tracks to enable it to get to work where other diggers can't get to.
As a heavier machine, additional safety features are built in to protect the operator such as a tip and roll over protective structure. However, also with satefy the cabin has a large amount of legroom to accomodate the adjustable suspension seat which means that you will be able to work for longer without feeling uncomfortable or fatugued.
