Lachouette Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 We're nowhere near you (Limousin - 87) but currently have a mini digger on hire from BLS, who I think are a national company. This is costing us 200 euros a day, plus a huge delivery charge as we live 30kish from the hire depot. We've had to leave a 'caution' cheque of 2000 euros too.Our local builders merchant hires out at much the same day rate but does a better deal for a longer period. We're not using him however as we need a dumper truck too.Hope this gives you some idea at least, until someone replies from nearer home.Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alane Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 We too paid a small fortune to hire a digger and dumper truck from a hire company. Afterwards our neighbours told us it was more usual and much cheaper to hire from a builder. They rang a builder who had done some work for them and he quoted a price less than half that we had paid. Unfortunately we'd finished the bulk of the work by then - if you or your neighbours know any builders it might be worth asking. I was surprised that a builder would hire out his equipment to someone totally unknown to him but that didn't seem to be a problem.RegardsAlan E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeb Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 You could ask at your Mairie. Some communes hire out equipment to residents.regards.......helen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
