WHAT IS AN EXCAVATOR?

A large tracked or wheeled machine with a hydraulic boom and bucket for heavy digging, trenching and material handling.

Excavators are the backbone of any serious construction project. From mini excavators for residential work to 50-tonne heavy-duty machines for civil engineering, our fleet covers every requirement. Track-mounted hydraulic excavators deliver the power and precision needed for trenching, bulk earthmoving, demolition and material handling.

YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

Yes. QuickSILVA PlanTranz Hire offers an operator with both wet hire (machine plus fuel) and dry hire (machine only). All our operators are fully certified and experienced across residential, commercial and infrastructure sites.

On a wet hire the hire will include fuel. Dry hire means you supply your own fuel on a hire. Wet hire is the most popular option for contractors who want a turnkey solution.

We recommend booking at least 48 hours in advance for our plant hire equipment. For larger excavators or peak periods, a week’s notice ensures availability. Emergency and shutdown work is available 24/7 — call us directly.

From 1.5T mini excavators for confined residential sites to 50T machines for large civil and mining projects. Reach out to us and we’ll be happy to recommend the right fit for you.

For a standard residential pool excavation in Cape Town, a 5–8 tonne excavator is typically sufficient. Larger pools or difficult access may require a larger machine. Contact our team and we’ll recommend the right size for your project.

Our hiring process is simple and straightforward. We offer flexible delivery and collection options designed to fit seamlessly into your project schedule and site logistics.


When needed, our team of trained specialists is readily available to provide expert guidance and on-site operational support; ensuring you’re fully backed from the moment the machine is delivered until your project is successfully completed.
