Dingo Mini Digger’s Boasts Over Two Decades of Success

The Dingo brand of mini diggers began in Australia back in the 1980’s, and until now these earth moving machines have been designed, built, and the company owned and operated by Australians.

Manufactured in Queensland, at the Dalby factory, Dingo is not only a well-known brand name that builders and contractors choose to use as a dependable labour saver, but the Dingo brand is also an established brand in overseas markets.
