help!
we need a rotavator to level out our new builds garden.
does ANYONE know where we can hire/ loan one ?!
we're at our wits end looking, only needed for this one job, so buying not really cost effective.
any help much much appreciated!

there is this thing called a spade and a bit of hard labour

Is there room to get a tractor in? Someone might be able to run over it for you with a real rotavator, as long as all bits of brick, concrete etc are out of the ground. Oh and make sure you know where and how deep all pipes etc are! That's preferable to using a hand-held one, which is a lot of work.

Where do you live? Have you ever tried to dig up any sizable piece of Caithness? Believe me, hard work doesn't begin to describe it!

Try homebase, I believe they hire tools, also what about HSS Hire in Thurso

That's who I would have said, either that or a landscaper, it wouldn't cost that much, failing that the nearest farmer:)

Sorry to make this a public comment, but I have never seen anyone more appropriately screen named. You are always at the back digging in a knife aren't you? I do hope that you have more real life joy than what your constantly acerbic comments/one liners show on here..... ;):lol:
