About Mobile Diggers from MCM Group+
Mobile diggers for sale in South Africa
MCM Group stocks 1 mobile digger models for sale across South Africa, ready for collection at our branches in Cape Town, George, Bloemfontein, Midrand or for delivery to any of the nine provinces. Every mobile digger we supply is selected and specified for tough local working conditions, and backed by in-country parts and service so you are never waiting on an overseas supplier when you need to keep working.
Mobile diggers are used for light trenching, digging and earthworks where a compact, affordable digger is needed. Whether you are a contractor, farmer, plant-hire operator or municipality, our team will help you match the right machine to your application and budget rather than over- or under-speccing the job.
How to choose the right mobile digger
Start with the work the machine will do most often. Matching engine power, operating weight and lift or dig capacity to your typical tasks keeps running costs down and avoids paying for capability you will rarely use. If you run attachments, check the hydraulic flow and coupler type up front, and think about transport — how you will move the mobile digger between sites affects which size class makes sense.
Compare the full specification of each model on its product page, then weigh up availability of parts, ease of servicing and resale value. A slightly higher purchase price often pays back through lower downtime and better support, which is exactly where buying a mobile digger with a local warranty and a national parts network has the edge over a grey import.

Pricing for mobile diggers at MCM Group starts from R 83 683 excl. VAT, with the final figure depending on configuration, attachments and any current specials. Request a quote on any model for an up-to-date, all-in price including VAT and delivery to your area.

Frequently Asked Questions About Mobile Diggers
What is a mobile digger?
A mobile digger is a compact excavating machine mounted on a wheeled or tracked chassis that can travel between job sites without a trailer. They combine the digging capability of a mini excavator with the mobility of a wheeled vehicle.
What is a mobile digger used for?
Mobile diggers are used for trenching, foundation digging, utility work, landscaping, and small earthmoving projects. Their compact size and road mobility make them ideal for contractors who work across multiple sites in a day.
How does a mobile digger compare to a mini excavator?
A mobile digger offers the advantage of road mobility — it can drive between sites without needing a trailer or transport vehicle. Mini excavators typically offer deeper digging depth and more power, but require transport between locations.
South African farmers and smallholders use mobile diggers for tasks that recur several times a year but do not justify the purchase or hire of a full-size excavator — post hole boring for fencing and structures, trench cutting for water pipes and electric cables, irrigation channel cleaning and small excavation jobs. A mobile digger towed behind a bakkie or light truck provides this capability at a fraction of the cost of an excavator.
Digging depth and bucket width are the key specifications for a mobile digger. Most models in MCM Group's range dig to 1.2—2.0 metres deep, covering the depth requirements for post holes, service pipes and shallow trenches. Bucket widths typically range from 200 mm to 600 mm, allowing the operator to match the trench width to the pipe or post size.
Mobile diggers require a tow vehicle with sufficient drawbar weight and hydraulic output to power the boom and swing. Most MCM Group mobile digger models require a 30—60 kW hydraulic power supply — compatible with tractors and most agricultural vehicles in the relevant horsepower class.
All MCM Group mobile diggers come with full local warranty, bucket and tooth replacement parts and after-sales service from our branches in Cape Town, George, Gauteng and Bloemfontein.
