Hiring a mini digger when the gate is the constraint

Digger and dumper hire with a driver or as machines only, for ponds, old drives and spoil, from the Hertford base.

A mini digger at work on a garden.

The hire is either a machine with a driver or the machines on their own. It is used for excavations, lakes and ponds, demolition, shifting soil and taking waste away. Garden ground is the normal setting, including the start of a driveway or a courtyard that is still a pile of spoil.

Say this when you call

The useful details are small.

  • The town: Hertford, Bengeo, Ware, Welwyn Garden City or further
  • Whether a side gate, a passage or an open front is the way in
  • If you want a driver or only the machine
  • What is being dug: a pond, an old drive, a lawn that has to come up

Call 01992 414 536 or 078 6224 5534, or email info@hertfordlandscapes.co.uk. Jake would rather hear the width of the access before a machine is sent that will not fit.
