Wet Hire — Machine + Operator in The Gap
Our most popular option. We bring the CAT mini excavator and an experienced operator to your site. You tell us what needs doing, and we get it done. No excavator licence needed, no risk of damage from inexperienced operation, and our operators know Brisbane soil conditions inside out. Wet hire rates include the machine, operator, and standard attachments.
Mini Excavator Hire for Tight Access in The Gap
Our compact CAT mini excavators fit through openings as narrow as 800mm — perfect for Brisbane backyards, side yards, and confined residential sites. Where larger machines can't go, we can. Ideal for pool dig-outs, retaining wall footings, drainage trenches, and landscaping in spaces that standard hire companies won't service.
What's Included in The Gap
Every hire includes a fully maintained CAT mini excavator, experienced operator, standard bucket set, and public liability insurance. We also carry auger, rock breaker, and ripper attachments for specialist work. Minimum hire is half a day, and we offer competitive day rates for longer projects.
