Compact Excavators
Similar to the skid steer loaders we talked about yesterday, a compact excavator is a very small piece of heavy duty construction equipment. In fact, they are designed that way for two reasons: first, maneuverability and the ability to get into relatively tight spaces; second, ease of transport so they can be easily taken to residential areas and other places where heavy equipment and large trucks have a rough time maneuvering.
For many tasks, we at Bulldozers for Sale know that the compact excavator (or compact track excavator) is the tool of choice. They are basically backhoes or 3 point backhoes that have a smal size and are stand-alone in operation. The compact track excavator can dig trenches, holes, or anything a normal backhoe can dig, though size does make a difference in amount dug and how deep you can go, of course.
Many compact excavators for sale will be found at auctions involving utilities, utility contractors, or municipalities. This is because their most common use is for digging trenches for utility lines, pipes, etc. and with an auger attachment to dig post holes for small telephone poles or supports.
Many auctions featuring bulldozers for sale will also have a compact excavator as a bulldozer listed, since front blade attachments (riding under the backhoe itself) are commonly used to smooth over freshly-filled holes and trenches.
The compact track excavator is definitely one of the most useful and common pieces of heavy duty construction equipment you’ll see. Whether you need one or not, if you see compact excavators for sale, it’s worth considering as an investment, at least.
