Hot Diggety does mini digger and excavator hire with an operator across Wellington city, from Tawa down to the south coast. The 800mm tight access digger suits the city’s steep, narrow sections.

Digging in Wellington

A lot of Wellington backyards are only reachable by a side path or a flight of steps. Hillside homes often need a retaining wall before there’s any flat ground to use. Our compact machines handle that kind of site. We level backyards and cut into banks where a bigger digger wouldn’t fit, then drill the post holes for the wall.

Common Questions

How is the digger and operator charged out?

By the hour meter on the digger, which only counts while the machine is running. The minimum charge is $100 to deliver the digger plus 2 hours of machine hire. Past those 2 hours, we charge the extra time in quarter-hour steps.
