Depends on the size, and also if you drive it yourself or want someone to
do it for you. Our local equipment hire place does mini excavators
starting at about £80 for a day - or about three times that for a week.
You pay a bit more for larger ones.

It was the normal size not a mini one and with someone to do it took 10
hours and cost £200 including taking the rubbish away.
