Used Mini Excavators for Sale

18 used mini excavators are listed for sale today, all from one supplier, LONGSHOU MACHINERY, and all of them in Shanghai, China rather than in the UAE. They are 2018 to 2025 models, and every one shows an asking price, from AED 39,930 to AED 105,696, with half of them at AED 62,390 or less.

That makes this page a way to buy a nearly new compact machine for less than a UAE dealer usually asks, as long as you budget for getting it here. If you need a machine on site this week, the mini excavators for rent are the faster route.

Mini Excavators Models Listed

Caterpillar leads with 8 machines: the 302, 303 CR, 305.5 E, 305.5 E CR, three 306E units and a 307 D. Kubota follows with 5, the U30, U-35, U 35-3, U 55 and KX 163. There is one each from Hitachi (ZX 30 U), Komatsu (PC 55 MR), Doosan (DH 60-7), Kobelco (SK 75) and LiuGong (9035).

Most are in the 3 to 6 tonne class: small enough to go through a villa gate or into a basement, and big enough for utility trenches, landscaping, plot clearing and breaking out slabs with a hammer. The SK 75 and 307 D sit at the top of the range, around 7 to 8 tonnes, for heavier digging and loading small tippers.

Prices

All 18 listings show a price, so the figures here are the sellers' own asking prices. The cheapest is a 2020 Hitachi ZX 30 U at AED 39,930, the dearest a Caterpillar at AED 105,696, and the middle of the range is AED 62,390, which is where four of the Caterpillar units are priced.

Those are prices at the seller's yard in Shanghai. On top come sea freight to Jebel Ali or Khalifa Port, UAE customs duty and 5% VAT, clearing charges and transport to your site, so ask the supplier for a delivered quote before you compare. The used excavator price guide shows what comparable machines sell for inside the UAE.

What to Check Before Buying a Mini Excavator From Abroad

• Hours on the meter, and a recent video of the machine starting cold and working.
• Track and undercarriage wear, the bucket pins, and leaks at the cylinders and the swing motor.
• Whether it is the canopy or the cab version, and if it has the auxiliary line for a hammer.
• The serial number against the export papers, and who owns the machine now.
• Who arranges shipping and customs, the delivered price, and when payment is due.

Ask for an independent inspection in Shanghai before you pay. Buying is a direct deal with the seller, and EquipmentsFinder charges buyers nothing and takes no commission.
