Wheeled Excavators For Sale
Mobility and Power for Urban Environments
Wheeled excavators, often affectionately known as “rubber ducks,” offer a unique advantage over their tracked counterparts: speed and mobility. Ideal for road construction, urban maintenance, and projects requiring frequent travel between sites, these machines eliminate the need for heavy haulage transport for short distances. At DWL Machinery, we offer wheeled excavators that deliver the same digging power as tracked models but with the added versatility of being road-friendly and gentle on paved surfaces.
