Groundworks contractor Moortown has enhanced its equipment fleet with the purchase of six more Kubota mini excavators, in a deal that now takes the total number of Kubota models used by the company well into double figures.
Three KX080-3 and three KX057-4 machines – the two highest capacity models in the Kubota mini excavator range – have been selected to provide a hard-working and versatile solution; ideal for its extensive school and hospital building programme, as well as other construction and civil engineering projects.
Half of the new vehicles are traded-in replacements for another manufacturer’s models, while the rest are additions to support the rapid growth of Moortown.
“Work demand has been increasing to such an extent that it made commercial sense to invest long-term by purchasing six machines rather than hiring several mini excavators to augment our existing fleet,” explains Moortown plant manager Pat Stapleton.
“Kubota was the natural choice based on the quality of their mini excavators which we’ve used in the past. By upgrading to some of the latest models, we are future-proofed against the huge amount of excavation work anticipated.”
