Trenching

How deep can a mini excavator dig a trench?

BuildHire's mini excavators have the following maximum digging depths: 0.8T — 2.1m, 1T — 2.4m, 1.7T — 2.7m. For most residential plumbing and drainage trenches (up to 1.5m deep), any of our mini excavators are suitable. Always ensure trench walls are shored or battered to prevent collapse.
