Most mini excavators have a quick release on the bucket, if you look the make and model up online you should be able to find instructions on bucket removal. When they drop the equipment off, pull the bucket and put it in the back of your truck. Before they come pick it up, put it back on. Put the straps around the bucket mount pins, and you're good to go.

We average 3 jobs per week. Monday-Friday work schedule. So about day and a half per site. All sites are located on the side of the road without parking normally. We have ditches everywhere here so that also impacts work.
