How do diggers and excavators work? 

There are lots of different types of construction machinery on the market. Diggers come in lots of different sizes. We have 0.8-tonne micro diggers, 1.5-tonne mini diggers, and large 20-tonne excavators.

Excavator is a different name for a digger. The main thing to remember about diggers is that they come with a large hydraulic arm attachment. One of our drivers will sit inside the machine and operate the hydraulic arm through the gearbox. The arm allows our drivers to reach over obstacles and access small spaces. They can also dig deep trenches. 

Our customers can choose between a range of different attachments. The most common attachment is a clam bucket. They can scoop up large amounts of waste materials. Our drivers can swap the clam bucket for a shaker, breaker, or auger.
