Landscape and irrigation firms need a loader that fits behind a truck. Small builders in the growth suburbs clean sites with one, and ranch and acreage owners clear brush and move feed. Rental yards add skid steers because they are rented often.
Wheeled models cost less and suit paved yards. Track loaders handle clay, sand and slopes. Frame sizes range from compact to large, rated by operating capacity. Match capacity to your heaviest load with margin, and check that the auxiliary hydraulics suit the attachments you plan to run, particularly a mulcher or a cold planer.
Skid steers live hard lives, so examine the lift arms, pins and bushings for slop and the cab for cracks. Look at the tires or tracks and the sprockets, because replacements are costly. Inspect the drive chains or motors for leaks, and run all the hydraulic functions through their full travel. Compare the hours with the condition of the seat, pedals and bucket edge. Hot summers punish radiators, so see that the cooling is clean and unclogged. To try one before buying, consider skid steer rental in San Antonio.
