Do I need to prepare the site before a wet hire digger arrives?
Yes, a bit of site preparation can help everything run smoothly. Ensure the work area is clear of debris, hazards and obstructions, including vehicles or materials that could block access. Let the provider know about any underground services (water, power, gas) in advance. If access is narrow or sloped, it’s also worth discussing with the hire company ahead of time to avoid delays. While the operator handles the digging, a well-prepared site helps get the job done faster and more safely.
What kind of jobs can a wet hire mini digger be used for?
A wet hire mini digger is suited to a wide range of excavation and earthmoving jobs. Common uses include digging footings, removing tree stumps or palms, preparing driveways, clearing garden beds, trenching for plumbing or drainage, and boring holes for fence posts or retaining walls. With the help of a trained operator, it’s especially effective for tough soil conditions, tight-access spaces or tasks that require precision and speed. Wet hire is ideal for homeowners, tradies and property developers who need expert-level results without operating the machine themselves.
What is mini digger wet hire?
Mini digger wet hire refers to hiring both the machine and a qualified operator as a package. Instead of managing the excavation work yourself, an experienced operator handles all aspects of digging, trenching, posthole boring or site clearing using the mini digger. This is ideal for people who don’t have machinery experience, need to complete work efficiently, or want to avoid the risks of DIY excavation. Wet hire is commonly used for residential, commercial or rural jobs where time, precision or safety is a priority.
