The Yanmar VIO17 is a compact 1.7 tonne mini digger / excavator for hire in Kerikeri. It comes on a trailer with rock, trench and tilt buckets — a practical choice for landscaping, trenching, posts and smaller DIY or trade earthmoving jobs.
Best for tight access around houses, gardens and driveways where a larger excavator cannot fit.
