You will hire a machine around £400/450 a week.fuel 30/40 galls a day depending on work.drivers will want £15/20 an hour obviously all plus haulage.i think you may struggle to get an operated cost these days

I have costed it in with machine hire £450 week for 3 weeks, on and off, fuel £80,transport of fuel! and wages comes out at £45/hr!
What has shocked me is I need nearly 1000 cubic meters of topsoil to replace what has been trashed. Anyone care to quote SN6, organic!

Couple of years back now but I was told one firm hired a 13t and man out for approx £2k per week - 5 full weekdays (9 hrs I think) and a half day (5 hrs) on Saturday. So works out at £40/hr. Think that included minimal haulage too (approx £75 each way).

@daveydiesel1 is about right 25/pH round these parts, some charge more some charge less, some are good operators some aren't. The country is littered with men and diggers. Was looking for a digger myself for a while, but cheaper to hire in currently.
