Earth moving equipment is a broad term used to describe machinery used to excavate, transport, and grade soil, rock, or other earth materials. Common types of earth moving equipment include excavators, bulldozers, loaders, graders, and backhoes.

We have skid steers, mini excavators, excavators, dozers, wheel loaders, backhoes, and motor graders for rent.

Earth moving equipment can pose several hazards to workers, including:

• Tip-overs: Earth moving equipment can tip over if not operated safely.

• Strikes by the bucket or boom: The bucket or boom of an earth moving machine can strike a worker, causing serious injuries or death.

• Entanglement: Workers can become entangled in the tracks or other moving parts of earth moving equipment.

• Cave-ins: Excavations can cave in, trapping and injuring workers.

There are many safe work practices that can help reduce the hazards of earth moving equipment, including:

• Always wear the appropriate safety gear, including a hard hat, safety glasses, and gloves.

• Be aware of your surroundings and look for hazards, such as overhead wires or underground utilities.

• Never operate earth moving equipment under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

• Inspect the machine before each use for any damage or defects.

• Follow the manufacturer’s operating instructions carefully.

• Never exceed the safe operating speed for the machine.

• Always use the seatbelt when operating the machine.

• Be sure to use the proper lifting techniques when loading and unloading materials.

• Never overload the machine.

• Always park the machine on a level surface when not in use.

A skid steer is a compact, versatile machine that is commonly used in construction, landscaping, and agriculture. It is characterized by its two wheels on each side that can turn independently, allowing it to pivot and maneuver in tight spaces. Skid steers are typically equipped with a variety of attachments, such as buckets, augers, and forks, making them adaptable to various tasks.

A mini excavator is a smaller version of a traditional excavator, typically weighing between 1,500 to 5,000 pounds. It is often used in residential construction projects, landscaping, and utility work due to its compact size and maneuverability. Mini excavators are equipped with a boom, arm, and bucket for digging, lifting, and placing materials.

An excavator is a large, powerful machine primarily used for digging, lifting, and loading earth materials. It is characterized by a rotating boom with a bucket or other attachment at the end. Excavators are commonly used in large-scale construction projects, mining, and road construction.

An excavator is a versatile machine that can be used for digging trenches, foundations, and utility lines. It has a long arm with a bucket at the end that can be rotated 360 degrees. A backhoe is a type of excavator that has a front-mounted loader. This makes it ideal for loading and transporting materials in addition to digging.

A bulldozer is a powerful machine that is used to push, grade, and level earth materials. It has a large blade at the front that can be raised, lowered, and tilted.

A backhoe is a versatile machine that can be used for digging trenches, foundations, and utility lines. It has a back-mounted hoe with a bucket at the end that can be rotated 180 degrees. It also has a front-mounted loader that can be used for loading and transporting materials.
