Micro Excavator Hire

When space is tight, our micro excavators get the job done. With an operating weight typically under 1.5 tonnes, these compact machines are ideal for small-scale digging and trenching in confined areas such as back gardens, indoor worksites, and narrow access zones.

At Fairfax Plant Hire, we supply reliable, easy-to-use micro excavators that deliver impressive performance for their size. Whether you're working on utilities, landscaping, or light construction, these machines offer the flexibility and precision you need.

See below for our full range of micro-excavators from trusted partners including Kubota.
