Mini excavators & skid steers for Hobart & the South

Dolerite, sandstone and steep blocks around the state's biggest city, and the orchard and lifestyle country of the Huon and Derwent valleys.

Hobart is built on the slopes of kunanyi/Mount Wellington, and the suburbs from Sandy Bay to Kingston climb dolerite and sandstone hillsides. Beyond the city the Huon Valley, the Derwent Valley and the Coal River Valley are orchard, vineyard and lifestyle-block country.

Ground

Dolerite (hard, dark, blocky) on the hills, Triassic sandstone in the older suburbs and Richmond, heavy clay in the valleys, and river alluvium along the Derwent and Huon.

Typical jobs
