Hey people, as the subject says I'm after a bobcat etc. To assist with removing a 3x5m reo'd slab to make way for my new shed. If possible for next weekend. This would be a paying job of course. Would like to throw some money at someone on here before I pay someone else. If anyone ccan help even if it's a friend or whatever. Cheers.
Posting this in other sections as well.

A small excavator will do it if you can get whatever you are loading it onto close enough

You can also hire the skid steer diggers, they're pretty simple to use. I hired one when I re did the front lawn cost about $400 for the day and they deliver and pickup. I got a bloke to quote to do the job and he said about $1600.

I'd knock "dingo" off the list unless its a piss poor slab.
Not big enough to be usefull.

If its a half decent slab with reo a decent size bobcat
with pick it up and drop it untill it breaks, we use the
bigger 4 series 10 husky's not 8's.

Excavator will be as good as anything depending on
how much access you have, 6 ton's a nice little size.

Whatever truck we use to bring the machine in with
we use to take the concrete away on whilst its there.
At the momment we dont get charged for dumping concrete
as it go's through a crusher to get recycled.

Make sure you have a good set of bolt croppers or
a quick cut / demo saw if its got reo in it,
make the job a little easier when its breaking up.

Sorry im not closer to do it,
although our gears a little big for domestics.
