Do I need to hire a posi track or a wheeled skid steer?

You need a posi track if the ground is loose

A posi track is a type of skid steer, sometimes called a multi-terrain loader or Bobcat, that is purpose-built for operating on soft, sandy and slippery ground conditions. It is track-mounted and propelled - providing better traction and stability across such difficult terrain. An advantage of using a posi track is its increased traction on mud and wet ground, low ground pressure, and low soil compaction, along with track tread design which mitigates surface damage.

You can use a wheeled skid steer if the ground is compact

Wheeled Bobcats and Skid Steer Loaders are mounted on wheels and can only be operated on compact surfaces. They are high-performance machines that are often hired with various labour-saving tools and attachments such as augers, buckets, drills and more. They are about $30 an hour cheaper than posi-tracks, because they are easier to maintain and service. They do have slightly lower break-out force because the tracks on posi tracks offer more ballast.
