How do diggers and excavators work? 

Diggers are an important part of construction sites all over Chelmsford. Site managers sometimes call them excavators. They can excavate, level, and move ground. 

Diggers have zero tail swing. They are comprised of an in-built hydraulic arm and an operator’s booth. They do not come with in-built storage. The hydraulic arm can reach materials that are a long distance away, but the digger cannot store them. Lots of people use our services when they have a skip on site. 

There are a few different attachments that you can choose for your hydraulic arm. Breakers, shakers, and augers all have different purposes. Drivers can recommend an attachment that suits your project.

Can you advise me on which type of digger hire to go for?

At HH Muckers, we work with first-time site managers and experienced professionals. We know how difficult it can be to choose between diggers. The main difference between our diggers is the amount that they can hold. There are lots of reasons why you might choose one digger over another, but here are a few guidelines. 

If you need to access narrow spaces you might want to book our micro digger hire and mini digger hire services. These are the smallest machines on offer in the construction industry. They have retractable tracks and can even drive through spaces that are the size of an average doorway. They are perfect for garden renovations.

People who have a large number of waste materials prefer 20-tonne trench diggers. These machines have zero tail swing and can accommodate a lot of waste at once. For more specific information, contact our team. We are happy to give you specific information about diggers.
