Linc5.0 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 no offense but $100 would be my gas there and back. You can rent one for 150 bucks, for an entire day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractor Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 6 ft pine trees require a skid steer? Well maybe if you gotta move them a long way, but even if so there are much easier ways than getting a skid steer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurkvinny Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 Post this on Craigslist. You'll have an inbox full of people that will come and do it for $100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well maybe if you gotta move them a long way, but even if so there are much easier ways than getting a skid steer. They have a 32" diameter ball on them, so you can't lift them up by hand. Care to enlighten me on the easier way? I've planted plenty of trees these are too heavy for me to move by myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oh8sti Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 i know anyone that one with a skid loader would lose money by doing this for $100. i know it sounds harsh, but the cost of running a bobcat, truck, trailer ect. is very expensive. Maybe try a 4 wheeler and drag them! Hillbilly rig it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianZ06 Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 I have a commercial grade tree ballcart if you want to use it. I have moved some very large trees around with it. Two guys might be able to do it. You say they are 32 diameter if that is the top measurement and they are smaller at the bottom they might go on the cart. Its been a while since I have used it and I can not say for sure you could do it with out looking at the tree ball. I remember the last time I used it and it was for some large white pines.

RS69 Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 Sorry you are too far away for me to do this for one bill. Hopefully there is a CR member closer to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
