You don’t have to rent hundreds of different machines for simple tasks — just use a backhoe! How? Keep reading to find out. 

Uses

CONSTRUCTION: Where does one go to find dozens of backhoes working in tandem? Try any construction site. Construction workers love operating backhoes because they make work so much easier. Digging and drilling? No problem. Laying pipe? Consider it done. Every job is a breeze when you have the right backhoe on site. 

LANDSCAPING: Backhoes are the perfect equipment for landscaping projects. When you need to uproot and move trees or other shrubbery, a backhoe can help you do so with ease. On the flip side, a backhoe with an auger can easily drill holes to plant trees. You can also perfect the look of the landscaping project by evenly spreading the topsoil or dirt using a backhoe bucket.  

PAVING: You have probably seen tons of road crews use backhoes when fixing or creating new roads. Installing an asphalt cutter onto the backhoe is the fastest way to break up and remove asphalt during road repairs. Then get to fixing by using the backhoe bucket to quickly transport and pour concrete onto the foundation. 

PLUMBING REPAIRS: Not all plumbing repairs can be solved with a wrench or a plunger. When plumbing companies need to install or replace a collapsed sewer line, they turn to their trusty backhoe for some help. Backhoes can quickly excavate the damaged area, dig new gutters, or place piping in the right location. 

ON-SITE TRANSPORTATION: Whether you have a big construction job or a small project, you’re probably dealing with tons of heavy equipment that would require a whole team of people to move from one location to another. Why work harder when you can work smarter? The backhoe loader or bucket is a great tool for on-site transportation. It can pick up and relocate any heavy equipment you need. 

Of course, these aren’t the only uses for a backhoe. This blog could go on and on and on if we listed them all. But we hope we gave you some new ideas on how to get the best bang for your buck. Shop construction equipment for sale or rent on our website today.
