Anyone ever rented one of the little Bobcats for small land clearing? Wondering how well they worked, and what your rental fee was for it.
For some reason, renting trenchers is expensive. I guess they tend to get abused more than other stuff with people trying to dig through heavy mud, large roots, rocks, etc. I need a 18" deep 600' trench a couple of months ago to bury a new electrical conduit, and the quoted price to rent a riding trencher for a day was $245.00 plus tax. I called a sprinkler co. and they dug it with their big deisel unit for $250.00. In one hour.gobug said:...
I called 6 guys that do site preparation. I need a 75 foot trench 2 foot deep. My little tractor won't handle this task. All the prices for the work done were in the $250 range. That's cheaper than I could rent the equipment to do the work.
