Are you thinking about landscaping your property? If you need to get some work done in your garden or on a piece of property you need to build on then one of the things that you will need to think about is earth moving. Whether you need to level your ground prior to the start of building work or to create an earth-based feature somewhere on your land, you will undoubtedly need to move plenty of earth at some point. 

For very small jobs a spade and a wheelbarrow may be sufficient but for anything bigger you will have to hire some mechanical help. For most earth moving jobs arranging Bobcat hire is the most efficient way to complete the job without a huge amount of manual labour.

Is a Bobcat right for residential users?

Sometimes homeowners make the mistake of thinking that Bobcat hire is impractical for them either because space on their property is limited or because their land can only be accessed by a comparatively narrow route that a Bobcat couldn't use. While it is true that a conventional Bobcat does require a significant amount of space in which to operate, that is not the only option available.

Many Bobcat hire shops are also able to provide you with mini Bobcats and even micro Bobcats to work in areas where space is highly restricted. Instead of struggling with a standard Bobcat in a space that is really too small for it you can now work in your backyard with a micro Bobcat and get done in a few minutes work that would have taken many hours of backbreaking manual labour.

Is a Bobcat right for commercial users?

If you have a commercial building site, then a standard Bobcat is probably your best choice. A standard Bobcat can be used to load skips, fill trenches and prepare turf quickly and easily. The only time when you may to rethink your choice is if your site is particularly wet or sharply sloping, in such circumstances then it's worth considering a vehicle such as a posi-track instead.

Whether you are a commercial or a residential customer Bobcat hire should be your first choice for earth moving and all landscaping work. If you aren't sure whether to go for a standard, mini or micro Bobcat then talk to the hire company who will be able to make a suitable recommendation based on their years of industry experience.
