Looking for wet hire excavator in Carindale? TerraVex provides professional wet hire excavator services across Carindale and the wider Brisbane Southside area. Our compact CAT mini excavators are perfect for the residential properties typical of Carindale.
Wet hire means you're hiring the excavator AND the operator together. It's the easiest, safest option for most residential projects. You don't need an excavator licence, you don't need to worry about machine maintenance or transport, and you get an operator who knows Brisbane soil conditions, underground service locations, and council requirements.
Dry hire means you rent just the machine and operate it yourself — you'll need a licence, insurance, and experience. For most homeowners and builders, wet hire is the better option. You get professional results without the risk. Our wet hire rates are competitive because we're efficient — an experienced operator gets more done in less time, saving you money overall.
We offer half-day and full-day wet hire rates for our CAT mini excavators. Rates include the machine, operator, standard bucket set, and insurance. Fuel is included. Additional attachments (auger, rock breaker, ripper) are available at a small additional cost. We provide honest quotes upfront — no surprises when the invoice arrives.


Established residential area with larger blocks. Excavation demand for pool installations, extensions, and landscaping projects. Good access on most properties.
