How Much Do Excavators Cost?

[Jobert_Scott]

Hey everyone,

I’m considering getting an excavator and want to understand the price range. How much do excavators typically cost? What factors affect the price—brand, size, new vs. used, or additional attachments? Any recommendations for budget-friendly options?

Looking forward to your insights!

Hey Jobert! Excavator prices are all over the place depending on size, brand, and whether you’re buying new or used. A small mini excavator might set you back $30K-$50K, while a big-boy 50-ton machine can easily hit $500K+. Attachments and extra features also add up fast. If you’re on a budget, checking out used machines or auction deals could save you a ton. What kind of work are you planning to use it for?

Yeah, prices vary a ton! If you're just doing light work, a used mini excavator might be the way to go, but if you need something heavy-duty, be ready to spend big. Auctions and rental yard sales can be great for deals too. What size are you thinking?
