About This Machine
The CAT 306 E2 is the workhorse of the 6-ton class. With nearly 56 HP, 13.5 feet of dig depth, and over 21 feet of reach, it handles everything from residential foundations to commercial utility work without breaking a sweat.
The conventional tail swing design gives you superior lift capacity and stability compared to reduced-tail or zero-tail models. The factory-plumbed auxiliary hydraulics are ready for hammers, augers, compactors, or any hydraulic attachment. Add our brand new attachments individually or grab the complete package and save.
This machine has been through a full inspection and refurbished with exactly what it needs to feel new again — new bushings, fresh paint, and whatever else the machine called for. It looks and runs like a machine that costs twice the price.
Ideal for: Contractors, landscapers, farmers, excavation companies, and anyone who needs serious digging power in a transportable package. Easily hauled on a tag trailer.
💡 Buy Both, Save More
We have two identical CAT 306 E2 units. If you're looking to expand your fleet or know someone who needs one too, contact us about multi-unit pricing. Both come with full attachment packages.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this machine have a DPF?
No. The CAT 306 E2 runs a Cat C2.6 engine with no diesel particulate filter. No regen cycles, no filter maintenance, no downtime. It's a pre-emissions machine built for reliability.
What's included at the $75,000 base price?
Quick coupler, hydraulic thumb with serrated grip, standard digging bucket, dozer blade, new bushings, professional repaint, and additional refurbishment as needed. Each unit has approximately 2,750 hours and has been fully inspected.
How many units do you have?
Two CAT 306 E2 units are currently available. Both are 2017 models in comparable condition. Multi-unit pricing is available — contact us to discuss.
Do you deliver across Canada?
Yes. We can deliver with our own truck and trailer anywhere in Canada. No third-party shipping needed. Call for delivery pricing to your area.
What jobs is the 306 E2 best suited for?
The 306 E2 is a versatile 6-ton excavator ideal for residential foundations, utility trenching, landscaping, road work, farm drainage, and small-scale demolition. It's big enough for real work but compact enough for tight residential sites.
Can I buy just the machine without attachments?
Yes. The base price of $75,000 gets you the machine with coupler, thumb, digging bucket, and dozer blade. All other attachments (hammer, compactor, grading bucket, trenching bucket, tracks) are available individually or as a package deal.
Where are these machines sourced from?
We source directly from our overseas facility, cutting out auction fees and dealer markups. We select machines that are already in excellent condition — items such as turntables, engines, hydraulic pumps, and drive motors must be in top shape before we commit. We would not gamble our money or yours on questionable units. Each machine is then fully refurbished and container-shipped to Canada.
What's the advantage of buying the complete package?
The complete package at $94,900 saves you over $9,500 compared to buying the machine and all attachments separately. You get everything you need to start working on day one — machine, hammer, compactor, grading bucket, trenching bucket, rubber tracks, steel tracks, and extra chisels.
How does the 306 E2 compare to competitors like the Kubota KX057 or Bobcat E60?
The 306 E2 offers more horsepower (55.9 HP vs 47-48), deeper dig depth, and the reliability of a CAT powertrain — all at a competitive price point thanks to our direct sourcing. Plus, the non-DPF engine means simpler maintenance and fewer breakdowns.
Can you source other equipment or brands?
Yes. We carry 75+ machines across 13 brands — CAT, Bobcat, Komatsu, Kubota, Hitachi, JCB, Case, Doosan, Hyundai, SANY, Volvo, Kobelco, and more. Visit our Available to Order page →
