What is a micro digger, and when do you need one?
A micro digger is a mini excavator under roughly 1 tonne. The defining feature is access: our 0.65-tonne L600 is just 690 mm wide, so it fits through a standard doorway or garden gate and works comfortably in spaces a 1.5 or 3-tonne machine can't get near.
That makes it the go-to for domestic and confined work: landscaping back gardens, digging footings for garden rooms and small extensions, laying short drainage runs, and jobs inside buildings or behind fences. It's light enough to move on a standard trailer behind a 4x4 or van, which keeps transport simple.
What you trade for that access is depth and power. A micro digs to around 1.1 metres, versus 1.66 metres for a 1-tonne machine, so for deeper trenches or heavier groundwork you'd size up. For everything tight and light, though, nothing beats it.

Micro digger prices and what to check
Used micro diggers typically sell from around £4,000 to £8,000 depending on hours and condition, with the risk of worn tracks, tired hydraulics and no warranty. Our brand-new L600 comes in at the lower end of that range while giving you zero hours, a clean history and a full 12-month parts warranty.
When comparing machines, check the operating weight and width against your tightest access point, the digging depth against your deepest job, and whether it's quick-hitch compatible so you can swap buckets and attachments quickly. New or used, those three numbers decide whether it fits your work.
