Are you looking for excavators, telehandlers or site dumpers? Well, you’ve come to the right place. Here at International Plant Sales, we have a huge range of used construction plants including JCB and Komatsu diggers for sale.
All of our machines were previously used by our sister company, Diggerland UK, so are in excellent condition. Diggerland replaces their machines every three years to ensure safety on the parks, however all of the machines have low hours. In fact, the machinery has never even been used on a building site.
While we guarantee there’s something for everyone at International Plant Sales, let’s have a look at what machine would work best for you.
MINI AND MIDI KOMATSU DIGGERS FOR SALE
Kicking it off with our smallest excavators, the mini and midi Komatsu diggers are brilliant for smaller spaces. Don’t worry though, their workload isn’t compromised!
Mini excavators are machines that weigh under 4,535kg, and some of them can even fit through doorways. They have bucket sizes ranging between 12 and 24 inches, but this can be easily replaced with another attachment if more suitable.
Whereas, a midi excavator is slightly larger and more powerful. This means you’re likely to be able to dig to a deeper level when using a midi compared to a mini. They are both more than capable of digging and backfilling holes, removing tree stumps and ploughing through snow.
Thanks to their size, mini and midi diggers are perfect for bespoke, smaller DIY projects. But, you’ll most commonly find mini and midi diggers on busy building sites. In comparison to larger excavators, these are a lot easier to transport across sites or between projects. What’s more is mini and midi excavators emit low noise levels and are really cost efficient.
Here at International Plant Saleswe have the following mini and midi Komatsu diggers for sale:
- PC14
- PC26
- PC55
- PC80
TRACKED EXCAVATORS FOR SALE
If a mini or midi digger isn’t quite right, then you might need a larger machine. Tracked excavators offer so many benefits to construction projects as they’re extremely versatile. They feature a tracking system, made of steel tracks or rubber roadliner pads, instead of wheels. This gives the machine better grips so they’re great when working on uneven ground.
At the moment, we have the following tracked excavators for sale:
- PC138
- PC210
- PC360
- PC490
- Liugong 922E
MANITOU AND JCB TELEHANDLERS
Telescopic handlers, or as they are most commonly known, telehandlers, are wheeled machines that are capable of taking on uneven terrain. They often compare to forklift trucks, but they’re much easier to use and more efficient. Plus, telehandlers have the benefit of using a telescopic arm. This allows the machine to reach higher than a forklift would be capable of doing.
Telehandlers are fantastic for a range of tasks. They’re robust, long lasting machines and our customers love them. Most commonly, telehandlers are used to move heavy loads in areas where a forklift can’t operate. You can use them to transport pallets, concrete or packaged goods. The versatility of telehandlers is what makes them a brilliant addition to any project.
At International Plant Sales, we have a range of second hand telehandlers available from Manitou and JCB. You can find more information about the different models available here, or give our team a call on 01634 779 123.
SITE DUMPERS AND DUMPER TRUCKS
Alongside traditional excavators, some projects can benefit from having dumper trucks on site. These are designed to shunt heavy loads on working sites and transport materials. You can use dumper trucks to transport anything from sand, rubble or crushed materials.
These four-wheel drive trucks have a large skip on the front of the machine which can be controlled from inside the cab. While you may need a dumper to move heavy loads around the construction site, they can also be beneficial for other projects. For example, dumpers are brilliant machines for back-filling trenches.
Dumper trucks seem to be very popular with our customers at the moment as we’ve nearly sold out! At the moment, we only have two Thwaites 6 tonne dumpers available. But, that doesn’t mean we won’t have more in stock soon.
BACKHOE LOADERS
The backhoe loader is possibly the most recognisable piece of machinery. As seen on pretty much every construction site, these machines have a front bucket and a backhoe loader. They’re mainly used for digging trenches, filling holes and levelling the ground.
Despite their size, operators can dig, lift and manoeuvre the machine very easily. We currently have one JCB 3CX available, which has only clocked 574 hours! As we said, all of our second hand machines come from the four Diggerland theme parks across the country. These are regularly replaced so our stock of machines is always growing.
