    Hi,
    Would anyone know the rough cost for man & digger hire (Monaghan county) to clear small enough trees from back garden of cottage. Access is tight enough so would probable require a smaller digger. Price per day or hour would be great thanks!

    Roughly 30 an hour.

    That sounds quite cheap.
    Does that cover the man, digger, fuel etc?

    Edit : I would have said about 250 a day so allowing for 8 hours it’s there or there a outs I suppose.

    Jaysus you'd be doing well to get it at 30 an hour

    Access is tight so I assume a 1 to 3 tonne digger,
    I had a man and a digger this week in a 6 tonne digger for 35ph and have previously used a fella with a 13t for 40ph all prices are ex vat

    30 an hour seems the going rate or 250 a day, cheap when you consider all the work a good driver would do with it in a day
