Excavators, backhoes, loaders, dozers, dump trucks and rollers — everything you need from the first dig to final compaction.
Earthworks rarely need just one machine. A typical job moves from excavation to loading, haulage, spreading and compaction — and every handover between suppliers is a chance for delays. With TractRent you can hire the whole earthmoving chain from one fleet, on one schedule and one invoice.
Our specialists size each machine to your soil type, dig depth, haul distance and access, so the excavator matches the trucks, the trucks match the loader and the roller finishes the job properly.
| Machine | Typical size | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Mini excavator | 1.7 – 5 t | Tight access, landscaping, service trenches |
| Crawler excavator | 13 – 30 t | Bulk digging, basements, demolition |
| Backhoe loader | 8 – 9 t | Mixed digging and loading, utility work |
| Wheel loader | 10 – 17 t | Stockpiles, loading trucks |
| Bulldozer | 8 – 20 t | Clearing, spreading, grading |
| Dump truck | 10 – 25 t payload | Spoil and aggregate haulage |
| Road roller | 3 – 12 t | Sub-base and asphalt compaction |
