Self-drive mini digger hire
If you’re happy operating a digger yourself, self-drive hire gives you the machine on site for as long as the job takes, working to your own schedule. We supply micro and mini diggers to builders, contractors, landscapers and homeowners.
We deliver on our own trailer and collect when you’re finished. Hire by the day, the week or longer. Every machine is regularly serviced and safety checked, and a hydraulic breaker is available.
Not confident on a digger? Any machine can be hired with one of our operators instead. See mini digger & driver hire.
Which mini digger do you need?
Kubota K008-5 micro digger

More dig depth and reach for footings, drainage runs, service trenches and garden clearance.
Kubota U27-4 3 ton digger
Cabbed 3 tonne machine for bigger footings, site strips and muck-away. 3 ton digger hire.

Self-Drive Mini Digger Hire FAQs
Do I need a licence to drive a mini digger?
You don't need a driving licence to use a digger on private land, but you must be able to use it safely. Many commercial sites ask for a CPCS or NPORS card. If you're unsure, hire it with one of our drivers instead.
Do you deliver self-drive diggers to your area?
Yes. We deliver and collect on our own plant trailers.
Which digger should I hire?
It depends on your access and the depth you need. A micro digger fits most side gates, and our 3 ton Kubota U27-4 suits bigger digs. Call us and we'll recommend one.
Can I hire for a week?
Yes. We hire by the day, the week or longer.
Is a breaker available?
Yes. A hydraulic breaker is available for every digger.
Are the machines insured?
Yes. Our hire service is fully insured. Ask us about the cover when you book.
