Bobcat and McMahon's Earthmoving and Tree Service
Landscape Contractor Magazine
|July - August 2025
A family owned company operating in the Cooma Monaro and Snowy Mountains area of NSW, McMahon's Earthmoving is a big outfit. Director Rachel McMahon was eagerly awaiting the arrival of a new Bobcat R series when we lobbed for a quick chat.
-

Richard and Rachel McMahon started McMahon's in 2006, employing local families and travelling throughout the Cooma Monaro and Snowy Mountains for work.
Now, 20 years later, the business has grown a bit.
“We mainly do civil construction," said Rachel. “But we can deal with anything from a backyard digger job to major road projects.
“We also have quarries, landscaping yards, a concrete plant, snow clearing...we do tree removal...we do a bit of everything.”
The mention of snow clearing was fortuitous, because the company's newest addition, due for delivery that same day, was a brand new Bobcat R series T86 Track Loader, destined for snow-clearing duties in the winter and civil-construction projects during the warmer months.
McMahon's history with Bobcat and Clark Equipment is a long and happy one. The company bought its first Bobcat from Clark Equipment around two decades ago.
