Shovel Specs
and Dimensions

The size of a shovel machine should match the workload. If your work involves a lot of digging and loading for example, you need a large shovel with a powerful horsepower and large lift capacity among other factors. The last thing you would want is to get a shovel that’s too small to get the job done or too large to maneuver in congested spaces. When buying a used shovel, make a point of thoroughly inspecting the important components.

Sometimes you find that despite the specs of a shovel being great, the previous owner hasn’t maintained it well thus ruining its performance. The weight and size of a shovel should be easy to transport anytime you need to move to a new jobsite. After looking at the weight, length, height and width of a shovel, our specialists suggest the most suitable trailer for transport.
