I rented a mini trackhoe in 2008 to dig a trench for 100' of footings and block wall. I got 8 hours of digging time for $240 including free delivery and pickup. It took me half an hour or so to get comfortable with using it, but after that it was great. It had no dozing power at all but it dug wonderfully. At the bottom of one trench, 5' down in the ground I found a rock 5' long, 2' wide and 8-10" thick, sitting across the trench. It took me over an hour to get that rock out, I had to dig out on either end and then pry the rock loose and stand it on end in the trench and drag it up over the side since it was too heavy for the hoe to lift. I had tried digging by hand at first but our ground is very rocky and I was only able to dig about 10 feet of trench a day by hand. I would seriously look at renting unless you are going to have an ongoing need for it. Zach
