Your Trusted Digger Company — 20+ Years of Plant Hire Excellence
Orbital Equipment is one of the UK’s most established digger companies, with over two decades of experience supplying high-quality excavators and plant machinery to construction professionals, civil engineering contractors, landscapers, and groundworkers. Whether you need a compact mini digger for a residential project or a large tracked excavator for a major civil works contract, our extensive fleet ensures we have the right machine for every job, delivered on time and in full working order.
As a specialist digger company, we understand that downtime costs money. That’s why every machine in our hire fleet is rigorously maintained, safety-checked, and prepared to the highest operational standards before it leaves our yard. Our experienced team is on hand to advise you on the most suitable digger size and specification for your specific application, ensuring you get maximum productivity from your hire period without paying for more machine than you need.
Our digger hire service covers a wide range of excavator classes, from 1-tonne micro diggers ideal for confined access work, through to 13-tonne and larger machines suited to bulk excavation, trench digging, and demolition support. All machines are available for short-term and long-term hire, with flexible contract options designed to suit both one-off projects and ongoing site requirements. Attachments including buckets, breakers, and grabs are also available to maximise the versatility of your hired machine.
