New wheeled and tracked skid steer loaders delivered to Durban and Cape Town. Engineered for South African mining, construction and agricultural work.
Demand for compact equipment in South Africa is driven by the simple fact that full-size machines cannot reach everywhere. Where a wheel loader is too wide, too heavy or too expensive for the job, a skid steer loader fits.
A skid steer loader solves a specific problem: one machine, many jobs. With a universal quick-attach plate, you can run a bucket in the morning and a hydraulic breaker in the afternoon. That flexibility means fewer machines to buy, maintain and insure.
The most common uses we see from South African customers:
| If you work on… | Choose | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Hard ground, paved roads, compounds | Wheeled | Faster, cheaper, lower maintenance cost |
| Mud, sand, soft or waterlogged ground | Tracked | Better traction, low ground pressure, doesn't sink |
| Rainy season year-round work | Tracked | Keeps producing when wheeled machines get stuck |
| Tight urban sites, indoor work | Mini | Fits through standard gates and doorways |

We know that in South Africa, the machine that breaks down and cannot be fixed is the expensive one. That is why engine choice matters as much as price.
We can supply machines with Kubota, Yanmar, Perkins, Cummins or Weichai engines. Before quoting, we'll ask which engine has the strongest parts network in your area — because a well-supported engine will keep working long after a cheaper one has been parked.
We stock and dispatch:
Operator manuals and technical documentation are supplied in English with every machine.
We ship regularly to Durban and Cape Town. A 40ft container typically holds 2–3 skid steer loaders depending on frame size and whether attachments are included.
Documentation provided: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificate of origin, and pre-shipment photographs.
Send us your working conditions, required lifting capacity and destination port in South Africa. We'll come back with a full CIF or DDP quotation within 24 hours.
