Mini excavator. If the excavated material is to remain, small area (your lot and building size) you could size the rental so that its got the right or the most reach you can effectively use on the site, or just double cast or keep casting the excavated material to its location, then rough grade it. Excavating what you describe with a loader bucket could be difficult, the hoe has much stronger breakout force and is why I would prefer it, + being able to control sub grade once you established the correct depth, follow your work until done, using the initial area as a benchmark. Even if the distance is longer, you can do it all with the excavator, rough grade the fill once placed. Rubber tire backhoe is also a good choice, but you need more room for full size ones, soft ground and carrying loads of fill can be an issue, all depends on the site. I did a job for a friend, very tight site, was loading out excavated material, wet nasty material and it came to a point where I had to double cast it to a stock pile near where I could get trucks in. Sometimes you just adapt, was too soft, would have turned this cat 420D backhoe over, but it was the right choice as I brought in several hundred yards to replace and build up a parking lot pad, the front bucket allowed me to dump material on the street and haul it in, grade as I filled. Skidsteer with quick attach hoe, and the bucket, would be ideal if you can rent it with both attachments.

Today's Featured Article - When Push Comes to Shove - by Dave Patterson. When I was a “kid” (still am to a deree) about two I guess, my parents couldn’t find me one day. They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
