Can You Write Off Mini Excavator?

Short answer: Yes: compact excavators for contractors and landscapers are 5-year equipment and qualify for Section 179 and bonus depreciation.

Financing interest is deductible too.

Records to keep: Keep the receipt, proof of payment, and a note or log showing business use; for mixed-use items, track the business percentage.
