Maybe someone can help me with the pros and cons so that I can decide whether to hire or buy a compact excavator? I have a 100-acre lot with a 1-mile winding driveway. I plan to hire a large machine and operator to clear the land, but after that there is a lot of work that a compact excavator could handle. I will need to gravel the driveway, dig 3 buildings, dig a few service trenches, and then just maintain the property in the future. I could probably take care of the immediate job of renting a compact house for 2 months. Does it make sense to hire or rent out as needed, or is it possible to buy for the long term? I am also thinking of buying a new holiday home, please let us know where you can now see the new homes.

If you think you'll use it more than one time, then buy it, of course.

I'm sorry I'm writing here. I know that someone can find this helpful. Yet my curiosity is still killing me because I don't see why you didn't do it then. I think everyone needs an excavator. If there is a possibility, why not use it. When I had a situation like this, it never occurred to me that I could do it that way. Yet every time I rent a new space, I never have such problems that would require an excavator. I recommend this company to everyone because the land lots offered are of good quality. You can see for yourself on their site.
