The Cat 335 is a compact radius excavator rental for contractors who need high production in tighter working areas. With 273 HP and an operating weight of 77,000 lbs, the Cat 335 is a strong fit for heavy sitework, utility trenching, road construction, drainage work, truck loading,
demolition support, industrial projects, and larger earthmoving jobs.

This machine is best used when the job needs the power and operating weight of a larger excavator, but the work area has space constraints. Its compact radius design helps reduce tail swing concerns around traffic, structures, barriers, utilities, and other equipment.

About the Cat 335

The Cat 335 gives contractors a high-production excavator option for jobs where space is limited but production still matters. It is built for heavier digging, loading, trenching, roadwork, drainage, and demolition support while helping crews work more efficiently in congested areas.

This machine works well as a primary excavator on roadwork, commercial, civil, industrial, utility, and infrastructure projects. Crews can use it to dig trenches, load trucks, excavate detention areas, shape slopes, move spoil, support storm drainage installation, and handle demolition cleanup.

The Cat 335 is useful when a standard excavator may have too much tail swing for the work area. Its value is in giving contractors large-excavator performance with better maneuverability around structures, traffic lanes, retaining walls, barriers, and active work zones.

Best Uses for the Cat 335

  • Heavy commercial site excavation
  • Roadwork and highway support
  • Utility trenching
  • Storm drainage installation
  • Industrial site prep
  • Detention pond excavation
  • Truck loading
  • Demolition cleanup
  • Ditching and slope shaping
  • Civil infrastructure work
  • Work near traffic, barriers, or structures
  • Large-scale backfill and grading support

Why Rent This Excavator?

Renting the Cat 335 helps contractors solve short-term heavy excavation needs without adding another large excavator to the fleet permanently. It is useful when a project has a defined production phase, when owned equipment is already committed, or when the job needs more power than a smaller excavator can provide.

The Cat 335 can also help solve layout problems on constrained sites. If the machine has too much tail swing, crews may lose time repositioning, working around obstacles, or limiting movement near traffic and structures. The Cat 335 gives contractors a stronger rental option for demanding work where space, safety, and production all matter.
