Pronto Pick #3: Ben’s Choice for Power and Performance - 20T Conventional Swing Excavators
Welcome to the third edition of Pronto Picks, where the Pronto Hire team showcases standout machines from our hire fleet. This time, we asked Benjamin Beecroft, Head of Sales to nominate his top pick — and he didn’t hesitate.
“For me, it has to be the 20T excavator. It’s reliable, powerful, and handles everything you throw at it,” says Ben. “From bulk earthworks to drainage and civil sites, it’s the machine you want when the job’s big, and you don’t have time for compromise.”
Why Ben Rates the 20T Excavator So Highly
Designed for serious digging power and dependable performance, our 20T conventional swing excavators are built to tackle large-scale work across the North Island.
“Compared to a mini digger, there’s no contest — you get more reach, more stability, and much better lifting capacity,” says Ben. “And with full swing capability, operators can work quickly and accurately even on tight or complex sites.”
The range of Pronto Hire excavators for hire in Auckland, Waikato and Lower Northland include the industry’s favourite brands: Kobelco, Doosan, Hitachi, Volvo, John Deere and JCB diggers. And with a wide range of excavator attachments available, they adapt to nearly any task.
“Our 20 ton excavator rental is a top choice for contractors looking for reliable, modern construction equipment hire. If you’re working on a large site and need strength, precision, and efficiency - 20T digger hire is hard to beat” says Ben.
