Mini excavators & skid steers for Gold Coast Hinterland
Volcanic soil, rainforest and steep acreage where a compact machine with a cab earns its keep.
Behind the Coast the Scenic Rim rises: Tamborine Mountain, Canungra, Beechmont, Springbrook and the Numinbah Valley. It is acreage country with rich red volcanic soil, rainforest, high rainfall and slopes that test any machine.
Ground
Red krasnozem on the plateaus, basalt boulders everywhere, and clay in the valleys. The soil is a pleasure to dig when moist and slippery when wet; the rock needs a breaker.
Typical jobs
Driveways and drainage on steep blocks, shed pads, dams, fencing, tree work and the small-farm and vineyard jobs the Rim is known for.
Machines that suit
The R22 PRO and the R32 PRO with a cab, plus an RS10 skid steer for bulk material. Delivery from Currumbin Waters is about an hour.
