Do you want it for to use yourself or do you want them to come in and fill stone into drains for you? I know a contractor with a tractor stone cart and a stone cart mounted on a 15 ton track dumper. PM me if you want his details! H e might hire either of them to you.

Have you a lot of work to do? If I had anything up to 1000m I wouldn't justify hiring in a cart for myself, I'd do it with the power box.

+1. The powerbox is a mighty man once truck can tip load fairly near to trenchs, I'm talking inside the gate of the field you are working in

doing a bit of drainage at the mo, lorry with load of stone was able to drive right down thru farm literally to drain, some very steep hills en route. anyway ground is so dry now truck traveled not a bother, saved alot of time drawing stone down with powerbox

Similar story here (but without the hills!).

Had a chain ready with tractor in case he needed a pull out in one wet spot - no fear of that

Thanks Reilig, can you pm his details please. I'd want to do it myself, one good day would tan all I'm doing at the moment. I'd usually go power box but I'm away thurs and fri of this week, and want to get it all in as usual before the rain, and of course just for good measure I've a slurry tank to empty also, so I figured the cart would be a fast painless solution!

Power box works better than frontend loader,as you can see,found that out one day.
Our digger man has one and lets customers tear away.tho got frist load in it one morning and wheel fell off going up the road...ahh good times.
