No backhoe loaders are listed for hire in the Makkah Region today, so none can be compared for jobs in Jeddah, Mecca, Taif or KAEC yet. Posting a backhoe request with the digging depth, the site and the start date puts the job in front of verified suppliers across Saudi Arabia.
The national backhoe loaders rental page shows what is listed across the Kingdom, and the Riyadh and Dammam Eastern Province pages cover those regions. All categories for the region sit on the Makkah Region hire hub.
Each backhoe listing names the make, year, base location and the supplier's phone and WhatsApp number. Rates and terms are agreed with the supplier directly, without a fee or commission to EquipmentsFinder. For now, suppliers respond to requests rather than to local listings.
Two-wheel-drive machines for paved or firm ground, such as kerb, drainage and cable work on established streets in central Jeddah.
All-wheel drive gives traction on sand, loose fill and slopes, useful on new plots in North Jeddah, around KAEC and on sites in the hills near Taif.
Smaller machines for courtyards, villa plots and narrow lanes where a full-size backhoe cannot turn, at the cost of shallower digging depth.
A backhoe loader digs with its rear arm and loads with its front bucket, then drives on the road to the next site. That makes it the economical choice for utility trenches, small foundations and backfilling where one machine does several jobs in a day. An excavator digs deeper and faster from one spot, so for bulk excavation or deep trenches it is the better hire.
Most backhoes run several rear buckets of different widths, and many carry a hydraulic breaker for concrete and rock. A multi-purpose front bucket can grab and doze, and pallet forks let the loader end move materials. Ask the supplier which tools come with the machine and which are hired separately.
With no listings, there is no regional SAR rate. Each supplier prices its own machines, usually by day or month, and the terms vary with operator, fuel and delivery, all confirmed with the supplier along with VAT.
Listings will show where each machine is based. Backhoes can drive short distances on public roads, so a supplier near the port, Al Hamra, the airport, North Jeddah or Obhur may serve nearby sites without a trailer.
Other backhoe jobs are on the inquiry board. Owners can list a machine free, and backhoes for purchase are on the backhoe loaders for sale page.
No backhoe loader is listed in the region today, so there is no typical SAR rate to report. Suppliers price by day, week or month, and the rate changes with whether an operator, fuel and delivery are included. Requesting quotes on the same terms from several suppliers is the reliable way to compare them.
A standard two-wheel-drive machine suits firm, paved sites and road-side utility work. A four-wheel-drive backhoe handles sand, loose fill and slopes on new plots. A compact model fits villa plots and tight lanes but digs shallower. State the trench depth and ground conditions in the request and the supplier can confirm the fit.
That varies by supplier and is shown on the listing or confirmed on contact. Some suppliers send a backhoe with its own operator, while others hire it bare to contractors with their own drivers. Either way, the operator needs a valid licence for the machine class.
Daily hire is common for backhoes because they suit short jobs such as a single trench, a connection or a clean-up. Suppliers set their own minimum terms. A backhoe can often drive a short distance to site, which keeps the cost of a one-day booking lower than for machines that need a trailer.
No supplier is listed in the region yet, so no coverage can be stated. Suppliers elsewhere in Saudi Arabia may move a backhoe by trailer to Jeddah, Mecca, Taif or KAEC for a longer hire. A request naming the district or project lets them judge whether the distance makes sense.
For trenches of moderate depth, backfilling, loading trucks and small foundations, yes, and it saves hiring a separate loader. For deep excavation, large volumes or heavy rock breaking, an excavator works faster and digs deeper. The trench depth and the daily volume to move are the figures that settle the choice.
