How do I drive an excavator?
Excavators can be surprisingly easy to operate yourself.
Read our guide ‘how to operate a mini digger’ for tips on how to feel confident.

Depending on the size of the excavator, they can dig depths from up to 1.7m to 6.7m.
Always check the specifications of the excavator that you’re hiring to ensure the machine you receive can reach the depths that you need it to.
