Top 5 Mini Excavators for Rent or Sale

Excavators have a wide variety of uses and come in an array of sizes. The smaller one's are called mini excavators or compact excavators and are capable of doing everything their big brothers can, albeit on a smaller scale. Whether you're digging trenches or holes, demolition, heavy lifting, dredging, or general grading, mini excavators get the job done. Period. They're rugged, versatile, and dependable if properly maintained.

However, not all mini excavators are created equal. Quality and dependability vary from manufacturer to manufacturer.
