About the post hole digger

The most common type you’ll find on eBay is the powered digger – these are also called an auger. Essentially, it is a drill and they come in a variety of forms and sizes, and they can be used in a variety of ways. One of the most common is the handheld power auger, which is generally used in landscaping. The main aim is to assist with digging, particularly in harder soil.

When it comes to augers, size matters, and each size has different abilities for the work.

• 2-3 inch is great for gardeners, allowing you to plant bulbs, plugs, and plants fast and easy.
• 3-inch are also good for horizontal drilling, such as running pipes or electrical wires
• 4-5 inch is great for placing smaller fence posts or planting annuals and perennials
• 7-inch is ideal for large annuals, perennials, trees, and shrubs, as well as 4x4posts.
• 8-inch works for potted plants, or larger 6x6 posts.

Variety of post hole diggers

If you’re installing a carport, for example, a post hole digger is a must-have, allowing you to easily break through any type of ground so you have the right space to insert the carport poles.

For farm use, you can get ones that have a larger depth and greater power; or if you’re simply digging holes in hard ground to plant your favourite trees, there are post hole diggers that will do the trick much faster than a garden spade.

You can buy post hole diggers that are petrol-based or electric, some that have a power blade and even hand—power-based shovel plant removers. There’s so much to choose from.
