I am now a married homeowner with a honey that has made a LONG list. We bought a house on 5 acres and need to clear about 3 acres of it. I am not going to chop any of the big trees until we have cleared the under brush and can see whats healthy. Here"s the dilema, to rent a dozer to clear the underbush its 1000 bucks for a week plus 250 dollars to deliver and pick up. The guy at the rental store said that many people in our area (Brazos Cnty TX) have rented a tracked skid steer and had great success. The majority of the scrub brush is yaoupon about 3inch in diameter. The skidd steer will cost 630 for a week and I can pick that up with my truck and trailer. What would you do? I have a whole week off work to do this. So time isnt a huge issue. Also the skidd comes with a grapple bucket to move the debris. Thanks for the advice.
