Old Sanford: narrow lots, side yards and the five-foot loader
The Sanford Residential Historic District, listed on the National Register in 1989, counts 432 historic buildings on lots laid out long before anyone planned for machinery. Side yards can be tight, oaks old and large, and a backyard may be reached through a garden gate. The Takeuchi TL6 is five feet wide with an open cab, so it is the one that gets behind a historic house without taking down a fence. Keep it outside the drip line of the big oaks where you can, since tracks compact the roots. In the city's Residential Historic District, exterior work, site work included, needs a Certificate of Appropriateness from the city before it starts, so check with Sanford's historic preservation staff first. A seven-member Historic Preservation Board oversees the city's four historic districts.
Flat, low ground and the celery years
Sanford was the Celery City: by the early 1900s it was one of the largest vegetable shipping centers in the country, farmed on flat, low ground irrigated from artesian wells. The shift came after the freeze of 1894-95 wiped out the citrus crop; celery was first planted there in 1896. Low, flat ground like that drains slowly, and loader work on it is often about water: reshaping a swale, filling a low corner, or building up a pad so rain runs away from a shed or a slab. Work it dry, because saturated ground ruts under any machine. On a bigger parcel the full-size loader is the practical choice, and the week at $1,500 gives time to reshape drainage and dress the ground afterward.

Contractors and the monthly rate
For a contractor on a longer build, the month at $3,500 is the rental that pays: the machine stays on site for the whole phase instead of coming and going. Pair it with a roll-off and the debris goes straight into the box; the contractor guide covers sizing the box for a job that also needs a machine.
Breaking out an old driveway or walk
Heavy debris from a Sanford tear-out, meaning concrete, brick, block or dirt, is accepted only in the 10 yard, 15 yard and 20 yard, loaded half full at most; the 30 and 40 do not take it. There is no handling charge in the 10, and a $150 handling charge in the 15 or 20. For a whole driveway you would rather not touch, concrete removal breaks it up and hauls it away, priced by the square foot.
