Frequently asked questions
Do you deliver machinery to Newcastle?
Yes, we deliver across the Newcastle area from our Cessnock depot on a distance-based delivery rate. The suburbs closest to us — Wallsend, Fletcher, Beresfield, Hexham — are the most economical to deliver to.
Is the 1.7t excavator suitable for small Newcastle blocks?
Yes — at 1.7 tonnes it fits through standard access gates and works well on tight urban sites, while still having the digging depth for footings and trenches.
Can I collect the machine myself instead of paying delivery?
Yes. You're welcome to collect from our Cessnock depot with a suitable tow vehicle, which avoids the delivery charge.
