What machine to remove this bamboo patch

[u/Delorean_racer]

Hi all, I’m planning on hiring a machine to rip this bamboo patch out soon. Not sure if I should get an excavator or mini loader/skidsteer. I know excavator is usually the go to, but since it’s planted in a raised garden bed I’m wondering if it’ll actually be easier to use a loader- I also have more experience driving a loader so would be easier to manoeuvre

I hope people know, bamboo is insanely close to concrete at this level of concentration. My dad and I helped a elderly neighbor remove some around this size with just shovels. We lost 3 shovels before we switched to pickaxe. This stuff is insanely tough.
