Hire digger, dumpers, trenchers, excavators and more from Kennards Before you can begin work on a major construction project or clear the way to upgrade your private outdoor space, it is essential to relocate any materials that are not required.

This may mean shifting existing mounds of dirt or debris to create a flat area ready to be built upon - or starting from scratch by digging a trench in order to lay important foundations, pipes and other critical infrastructure.

Whether you are a tradie with a large contract to fulfil or a homeowner undertaking a new DIY landscaping job, it is often necessary to use earthmoving equipment to clear any part of the land that could prevent work from being completed.

Kennards hires out earthmoving equipment

It is not always feasible for a DIY enthusiast - or even a tradie who works outdoors regularly - to own every single piece of equipment that might be required for a particular task.

Fortunately you can rely on Kennards to provide the heavy duty tools you need, which helps to make carrying out major jobs cost-effective and more efficient.

We can hire you whatever you need to dig, lift and shift piles of dirt, turf, sand or any other materials from one place to another, allowing you to get the bigger parts of the project underway.

Types of earthmoving equipment required by tradies and DIY specialists

Whether you need to take away a patch of lawn in order to add new features to your backyard or adjust the landscape of a large work site so that building can begin, Kennards has all the tools and machinery you could possibly need for the job at hand.

At Kennards we hire everything from easy-to-operate equipment such as dumpers and wheelbarrows, to heavy duty powered machinery such as trench-diggers, excavators, mini loaders and skid steer loaders.

A mini dumper, for example, is suitable for narrow access jobs in relatively confined spaces, helping you to move small amounts of earth away from tricky backyard corners or between fences and obstacles. At just under one metre wide, Ride On Swivel Dumpers are suitable for working adjacent to fences and building sites and have a carrying capacity of up to one tonne.

When a bit of extra grunt is called for, a mini loader is useful for a broad range of activities and can be easily manoeuvred as a stand-on 4-wheel-drive - ideal for moving piles of earth or even transporting other heavy pieces of equipment.

A skid steer loader is perfect for mid-range earthmoving, landscaping, levelling, loading trailers or trucks and site clean up.

Tradies might sometimes be looking to achieve larger projects such as creating trenches for drainage, road construction, demolition works or building renovations.

In these cases an excavator or a self-propelling trencher is ideal for quick and efficient earth movement.

From large-scale construction site work right down to DIY garden improvements, Kennards can offer you a range of equipment to suit the task at hand.
