Need reliable excavator hire in Mount Eliza? Diggermate Mount Eliza offers a 1.7t mini excavator with flexible hire options for jobs around Mount Eliza and nearby suburbs. Delivery is available to most sites to help keep your project on schedule.
We help builders, tradies, landscapers and owner-builders get the equipment they need for residential, commercial and civil jobs. Whether you’re digging a drainage trench or preparing a site for landscaping, your local team can help you plan your hire.
Hiring locally makes it easier to organise pickup or delivery around your job. If you’re working through a narrow gate, on a sloping block or with limited space to unload, talk to us about your site access before booking.
If you’re operating the machine yourself, explore mini excavator hire. If you’d prefer someone to do the digging, enquire about excavator hire with an operator and check availability for your site.
The Diggermate network runs a range of excavators for everything from tight-access backyard jobs to heavier commercial site work. Machines are regularly serviced and safety-checked. Models and attachments vary by location.
The national fleet includes machines from manufacturers such as Kubota, Yanmar, Wacker Neuson and Kobelco. The right excavator depends on your site access, the work you need to do and the attachments you’ll use.
Compact 0.8t and 1t micro excavators are suited to backyard projects, narrow gates and trenching in confined spaces. These machines typically measure around 700–800 mm wide and are easy to manoeuvre in tight spots. Their lighter operating weight can help minimise ground disturbance.
The 1.7t mini excavator available at Diggermate Mount Eliza offers a practical balance of power and access for jobs such as:
Across the network, excavators in this class typically measure around 1,000–1,300 mm wide, depending on the model and track position. Models with expanding tracks can widen their stance for added stability during operation.
Across the Diggermate network, larger machines such as 3.5t excavators and 5t to 8t excavators are suited to bulk material handling, larger landscaping projects and commercial construction. Depending on the model, they offer greater reach and digging depth, heavier operating weights for stability and more hydraulic power for demanding attachments.
Depending on the machine and location, available attachments may include:
Choosing the right attachments can help you tackle several tasks with the same machine.
Before booking, consider your site access, ground conditions, digging depth, lifting requirements and any attachments you’ll need. Your local Diggermate team can help you choose a setup that suits the job.

Diggermate Testimonials
Couldn’t recommend Wade high enough. Prices are unbeatable and quality of work is second to none. Fast. Reliable and easy to communicate with. Makes the stress of earthmoving so much easier when you can have an open conversation with such an experienced operator about how to achieve your goals. Will be using and recommending again and again.
We recommend Diggermate to anyone who’s looking to hire. Their services are beyond your imagination. Take our words for it? You’ll never go wrong?
Absolutely phenomenal service from a friendly, helpful and knowledgeable family owned business. Emma and Paul went out of their way to help me out with last minute bookings for a micro excavator and then a mini loader a week later. They were extremely flexible in organizing drop off and pickup times (early mornings, on a Sunday, etc.) and their communication was excellent. Pricing is very reasonable and included delivery, unloading, reloading and pickup. They even helped me out with some flexibility with regards to my hire as I got caught in the rain for a few days. I cannot recommend these guys highly enough, you just don’t get service like this anymore. Above and beyond so six stars!
I was fortunate to find Diggermate among all of the other hire mobs. Ailsa & Graeme are lovely people and deliver on or before time. The mini-excavator never missed a beat, and like advertised, I was getting the hang of things in no time. Can’t wait to use Diggermate equipment again – the amount of work I got through was worth way more than I paid. Thanks, guys.
The Team at Diggermate was very friendly and easy to deal with, even when I inadvertently caused an issue, they were very professional and courteous, would definitely recommend them to others!
Diggermate compliments my earthmoving business by supplying me small tight access machines for jobs where my bigger machines won’t fit.
Thank you Jeff and Jay. The bobcat was in tip top condition as was the service supplied. Highly recommend Diggermate for your professional service. Was there to help me with pickup late at night, don’t go past this business for your digger and bobcat hire.
I could not recommend this business highly enough. Not only did Kath and Rod let me rebook due to rain but Rod even delivered the excavator for free of charge before making his way home. There service was excellent and very friendly to deal with I would recommend these guys to family and friends anytime. And to top it off there rates are the cheapest on the sunny coast they are very accommodating I will definitely being using this business again.
Very happy. I had zero experience with this type of machinery but received great guidance from the team… Easy to operate and avoided days of back-breaking work. Great people to deal with. Will definitely be coming back for the next project.
Diggermate responses were quick. The online booking and payment was really easy and simple. The product was in great condition. Wade looked after us and we were happy to re-book with him at a later date. Wade’s customer service and reliability were a high standard, I can definitely recommend Diggermate for your next hire. Top service.
