With spring in the air, it might be time to turn your attention to your lawn and garden.

Whether you are starting from scratch by marking out and creating new garden beds or simply want to spruce up your outdoor space to celebrate the change in seasons, there are a number of tools you may want to consider hiring to get the job done.

A lawn blower and vacuum can help you to spring clean your driveways and paths - you can use this to vacuum up debris and dust and keep your walkways clear.

If you are creating an entirely new garden space or establishing a vegetable patch, you may find you need to move a significant amount of earth. In this situation, a mini loader can be a useful piece of equipment to consider - these are sometimes referred to as Little Bobcats, Dingos or Kangas and can be hired in a range of sizes depending on the space you have to work with.

Pruning and cutting back your trees and shrubs can give your garden a fresh, springtime look - and a chipper is an excellent way to turn these clippings into compost or mulch that can be utilised elsewhere in your outdoor space.
