The Perfect Digger for Tight Spots & DIY Jobs
This Micro digger is ideal for getting down a narrow path between houses or those other tight spaces that a normal mini digger cannot. The roll bar can be removed for transportation, and it can fit in or on the back of most good-sized vans.
Our digger comes on a free trailer and it weighs so little that you’ll only need a towing capacity of 1,600kg to tow it, making it the perfect microdigger hire for those jobs were you really don’t want to do all the digging yourself.
Although it is one of the smallest diggers on the market, the micro digger we have to hire is one of the most powerful. The reliable Yanmar diesel engine means that you can have all the performance without the compromise on size. It also offers an emissions-free option so it can be safely used in indoor spaces.
The perfect choice for the ‘do-it-yourself’ people as well as professionals alike!
- Foldable ROPS safety bar as standard
- Highest engine power of its class
- Easy to transport by trailer
This digger comes with a full tank of white diesel. Please top back up before returning. We can fill it up here if you don`t have time, this will be chargeable.

Common Uses of a Microdigger
A microdigger is a versatile and compact piece of machinery designed to tackle tasks in tight or restricted spaces where larger diggers simply can’t fit. It offers efficiency, power, and ease of use for a variety of applications. Here are some of the most common uses:
Gardening and Landscaping
Microdiggers are ideal for creating flowerbeds, removing tree stumps, digging drainage channels, or levelling uneven ground. Their compact size ensures minimal disruption to the surrounding area, making them perfect for precise gardening and landscaping tasks.
Utility Work in Narrow Spaces
With the ability to navigate through narrow paths and tight spaces, microdiggers are frequently used for trenching and laying pipes or cables in areas with restricted access. The removable roll bar and lightweight design make transportation and deployment hassle-free.
Home Renovation and Construction Projects
For digging foundations, creating extensions, or preparing groundwork for patios and driveways, the microdigger offers powerful performance in a small package. It’s an excellent choice for projects requiring precision and minimal footprint.
Indoor Excavation
Thanks to its compact build and emissions-free option, microdiggers can be used indoors for tasks like basement renovations or indoor demolition projects, ensuring safety and compliance in enclosed spaces.
Farm and Agricultural Use
Microdiggers are also popular in agricultural settings for tasks like ditch digging, fencing, or preparing soil for planting. Their ease of transport by trailer means they can be quickly moved between different locations.
