When it comes to sourcing reliable and efficient construction machinery, International Plant Sales (IPS) stands out as a trusted provider of high-quality used digger equipment. Offering a diverse selection of machinery, IPS caters to the needs of construction companies, contractors, and builders who seek robust and dependable equipment without the premium price tag of brand-new models.
In this blog post, we’ll explore the various types of digger equipment available at IPS and why buying used digger equipment can be a smart investment for your construction business.
The Benefits of Buying Used Digger Equipment
Before diving into the specifics of what IPS offers, it’s important to understand why buying used digger equipment is an excellent choice for many companies. Firstly, the cost savings are significant. Purchasing used equipment allows businesses to acquire high-quality machines at a fraction of the cost of new models, helping to preserve budgets without sacrificing performance.
Another advantage of used digger equipment is the availability of well-maintained machines with proven reliability. At IPS, all equipment undergoes thorough inspections and maintenance to ensure that they are in optimal working condition. This means you can trust that the machinery you purchase is ready to perform, regardless of its age.
Additionally, buying used allows for quicker procurement. New machines may come with long waiting times due to high demand and production schedules, whereas used equipment is often available for immediate delivery. This can be crucial for businesses working on tight deadlines.
Types of Used Digger Equipment Available at IPS
At International Plant Sales, we offer a comprehensive range of used digger equipment to meet the diverse needs of construction projects, from small-scale residential work to large commercial developments. Our inventory includes mini diggers, midi diggers, tracked excavators, long reach excavators, and backhoe loaders. Let’s explore these categories in more detail.
Mini Diggers
Mini diggers, also known as compact excavators, are perfect for smaller jobs where space is limited. Whether you’re working in an urban environment, on a landscaping project, or on a residential building site, mini diggers are designed to navigate tight spaces and deliver precise digging capabilities.
At IPS, we supply a range of mini diggers from trusted brands such as Komatsu, JCB, and Sany. These machines may be small in size, but they are powerful and efficient, ideal for tasks such as digging trenches, foundations, or utility lines in areas where larger machines would struggle to operate.
Midi Diggers
For medium-sized projects, midi diggers provide the perfect balance between the compact nature of mini diggers and the power of larger tracked excavators. They are highly versatile, offering excellent manoeuvrability while still being capable of handling more demanding tasks.
IPS offers a variety of midi diggers from leading brands, ensuring that contractors can find the right machine for jobs like roadworks, site preparation, or small-scale demolition. With their increased lifting capacity and digging depth compared to mini diggers, midi diggers are an essential part of any fleet handling mid-sized projects.
Tracked Excavators
For large-scale construction or heavy-duty applications, tracked excavators are indispensable. These powerful machines can handle tough conditions, from earthmoving and grading to demolition and deep trenching. Tracked excavators are essential for large construction sites, where robust equipment is needed to complete jobs efficiently.
IPS carries a range of used tracked excavators, including models such as the Komatsu PC490, a well-known workhorse in the industry. With its robust build and high torque, the Komatsu PC490 is designed to tackle the most challenging tasks, including large excavation projects and material handling.
Long Reach Excavators
Long reach excavators are specifically designed for tasks that require extended reach, such as dredging, deep trenching, or working on high structures. These machines are equipped with an extended boom, making them perfect for projects where precision and reach are crucial.
At IPS, we offer long reach excavators ideal for tasks like river dredging, demolition of tall structures, or handling materials from a distance. Long reach machines offer an impressive range of motion, helping contractors complete specialised tasks that regular excavators might struggle with.
Backhoe Loaders
For versatility on the job site, few machines can match the functionality of a backhoe loader. Combining a front loader with a backhoe, these machines can switch between loading and digging tasks with ease, making them a versatile choice for a wide variety of construction jobs.
At IPS, we supply backhoe loaders from top manufacturers such as JCB. The JCB 3CX is a standout model, renowned for its versatility and ability to handle jobs like trenching, material loading, and digging. It’s an ideal choice for projects that require an all-in-one solution for earthmoving and material handling.
