FAQ
All questionsCommon questions from Canberra buyers
Do you deliver mini excavators to Canberra?
Yes. Rippa Australia freights from the Gold Coast to Canberra, Queanbeyan and the Southern Tablelands by general freight and tilt tray, typically two to four days from dispatch. Depot collection in Canberra suits buyers with a trailer.
Which Rippa excavator suits Canberra clay?
Canberra's clay is hard in summer and sticky in winter, with rock close to the surface in the south and west. The R18 PRO or R22 PRO with a ripper handles it; the R15 suits landscaping.
What about Canberra winters?
Frost most mornings from May to September and frozen topsoil on the coldest days. Correct winter oil grades, a healthy battery and a proper warm-up; rip the frozen crust or start later. A cab is worth having for full-time use.
Do I need a licence to operate a mini excavator in the ACT?
Not on your own property. Construction sites require a white card and usually a verification of competency.
