The 14.5T is the standard choice for large commercial earthworks — major site preparation, bulk material movement, and large-scale cut and fill.
Road construction, major drainage infrastructure, and civil earthworks at scale. The 14.5T's power and capacity handles the most demanding civil projects.
Bulk earthworks for large residential and commercial developments — subdivisions, apartment sites, and mixed-use developments.
Excavate deep basement levels for commercial and apartment developments. The 14.5T's 5,700mm dig depth handles the deepest residential and commercial basements.
Excavate for major retaining wall and shoring systems on large development sites.
Material extraction and loading support for quarry and extraction operations in NSW.
BuildHire's 14.5T excavator starts from $450/day (incl GST). Delivery is via third-party transport — call 1300 157 882 for a delivery quote to your location. Weekly and monthly rates are available for ongoing projects.
The 14.5T has greater digging depth (5,700mm vs 4,500mm), significantly more bucket capacity (0.60m³ vs 0.35m³), and more engine power (85.5kW vs 47.5kW). It is the better choice for large commercial earthworks, major civil infrastructure, and development sites where the 8T lacks the scale required.
On a registered worksite, a High Risk Work Licence (HRWL) for earthmoving equipment is required to operate a 14.5T excavator. On private property, no licence is required. Always check with your site supervisor and SafeWork NSW requirements.
The 14.5T is delivered via third-party heavy transport. Pricing depends on your location — call 1300 157 882 for a delivery quote. We arrange all transport logistics and can advise on access requirements.
