About Backhoe Loaders (TLB) from MCM Group+
TLBs for sale in South Africa
MCM Group stocks 12 TLB 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 TLB 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.
TLBs are used for loading, digging trenches and foundations, site clearing, material handling and general earthmoving on construction sites, farms and municipal works. 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 TLB
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 TLB 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 TLB with a local warranty and a national parts network has the edge over a grey import.
TLB price and finance
Pricing for TLBs at MCM Group starts from R 280 033 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.
Most buyers finance their TLB. MCM Group submits your application to several banks and asset-finance houses at once — including Nedbank, WesBank and Standard Bank — so you get competitive offers without shopping around, with approvals typically inside 48 to 72 hours. We handle the paperwork from quote to delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions About TLBs
What is a TLB (Backhoe Loader)?
A TLB (Tractor-Loader-Backhoe) is a versatile machine that combines a front-end loader and a rear-mounted backhoe excavator on a single tractor chassis. It is one of the most widely used machines in construction, farming, and earthmoving across South Africa.
What can a TLB be used for?
TLBs are used for digging trenches, loading materials, backfilling, grading, breaking ground, and general earthmoving. They are popular on construction sites, farms, municipal projects, and in mining operations throughout South Africa.
What financing options are available from MCM Group?
MCM Group works with multiple finance houses to offer competitive repayment terms on all equipment. Contact our sales team to discuss deposit requirements, monthly instalments, and approval timelines for your business.
What size TLB do I need?
The right TLB size depends on your project requirements. Smaller TLBs (under 70hp) are ideal for residential and light commercial work, while larger models (80hp+) suit heavy construction, road building, and mining applications.
Does MCM offer TLB financing?
Yes, MCM Group works with multiple finance houses to help customers purchase TLBs on affordable repayment terms. Contact our sales team to discuss financing options for your business.
In South Africa, the TLB remains the single most-used construction machine on residential building sites and civil projects. This is because a TLB performs the three tasks that drive most day-to-day site operations — digging trenches and foundations, loading trucks and skips with excavated material, and cleaning up and levelling the site — without the need for multiple machines. For contractors working on mid-size projects, a TLB delivers the best return on investment of any single piece of equipment.
Key specifications to evaluate when buying a TLB include engine power (typically 65—100 kW), rear digging depth (4—5 metres for standard TLBs), front loader bucket capacity (0.6—1.1 m³) and the availability of a four-in-one (4-in-1) front bucket for increased versatility. Powershift vs. torque converter transmission choice affects fuel consumption and operator control in different applications.
MCM Group TLBs are supplied with full local warranty, nationwide parts availability and after-sales service from our branches in Cape Town, George, Gauteng and Bloemfontein. Competitive instalment sale, financial lease and operating lease finance is available through MCM Group's approved finance partners. Contact us for a demo and quote.
