Cheapest published day rate
John Deere 324G skid steer · $225/day
Cat 249D compact track loader · $225/day
Tractor
It grades with a blade. It is a slow way to load a trailer.
Ask if a blade is included. Some shops price the blade on its own, and that charge is not in this range.
Dump trailer
It hauls soil or gravel. Skip it if nothing has to leave or arrive by trailer. The range on this page includes the trailer.
Some starting prices cover more than dump trailers. Ask which trailer the price is for, the weight rating, and the hitch. Your vehicle has to be rated for the loaded trailer.
