Move it
Bark, mulch, soil, sand or gravel. Spread it, shift the pile, or get it off the driveway.
Eastern suburbs, Melbourne
Small machine.
Short job.
Done.
We turn up with a mini excavator or mini loader and knock over the outdoor job that is too awkward for a shovel and too small for a crew. Aimed at two hours. Capped around four.
- You send the photos. We do the job.
- No hire. No trailer. No lesson.
- Quote before anyone is booked.
Not a machine hire. Not a full landscaping crew.
Just the machine bit, done and gone.
What we do
Too big for a shovel. Too small for a crew.
Dig it
Post holes, stump holes, garden beds, short trenches. Point at the spot. We dig it.
Spread it
Strip a bit of turf. Level a small pad for a shed, cubby, veggie patch or pool fence. Clean up after a tree job.
We do not take retaining walls, drainage design, concreting, or multi-day landscaping.
How it works
Three steps. Then we leave.
-
01
Send the job
Email the suburb, what done looks like, and a few photos or a 20-second video. Gate width, slope, wires and dogs help.

02
Get a quote
We price the work, not a machine hire. Most quotes are for two hours or less. Bigger than four hours, we will say so.

03
We turn up
Mini excavator or tracked mini loader, operator included. Job done, site left tidy, home for lunch.
The machines
Small enough for a backyard. Strong enough to matter.
A 1.7 tonne mini excavator and a tracked mini loader. Both fit through a normal side gate when the access is there. If it is not, the quote will say so before we book.
- Case-style 1.7t mini excavator, buckets on board
- Tracked mini loader with a 4-in-1 bucket
- Operator included. You do not drive it.

Straight answers
Before you send the photos.
Is this still equipment hire?
No. Quick Jobs is the operator service. We bring the mini excavator or mini loader and do the work. Dry hire is a separate offer.
How long is a job?
Aimed at two hours or less. We will quote up to about four if the photos show it needs it. Longer than that, it is probably not a Quick Job.
Do I need to be home?
Someone needs to give access and point at the job, unless we have agreed a lockbox or a clear video brief. Pets inside, thanks.
What should I send?
Suburb, one sentence on the finished job, photos from the street and the work area, or a short video. Rough size helps: how big the pile is, how many holes, how long the trench.
Who is this for?
Homeowners with one defined outdoor job. Also handymen and gardeners who need a machine and an operator for a couple of hours, not a dry hire.
