Anyone do landscape services or have a reference?

Ill have to do calculations too, maybe buying in bags and doing loads in a pick up truck smaller amounts at a time, although more expensive for materials, may Balance out in labor since I don't mind moving bags around just not a massive pile of loose rock. Those are pretty good deals on the machinery though, I could probably get it done in a day. Are they hard to drive?

Those little ride on skid steers arent difficult to drive, but if you are running over rough terrain, they do a pretty good job of beating the shit out of your knees and back.

How many trips are worth your time & money vs 1 load dropped off and bobcat rental ? Since this was in your OP Took too long last time.

obviously that is always to be considered. however, also in my OP was "shoveled by hand". I am talking about spending more to get it in bags that can be dropped at the site.
