How can I get rid of large rocks that are in my yard?

Question

I have these large heavy rocks that are in my yard and I'm tired of mowing around them. A few are below ground but stick up a little bit in my yard and I've bent a mower blade mowing over it.

How can I dig these up and get rid of them?

Answer 1

If those rocks are really big and heavy I would recommend renting a backhoe or mini excavator to dig the rocks up.

Trying to dig it up with a shovel may be possible but the problem would be getting the rocks out of the holes.

Make sure you call into one call for digging and have underground utilities marked for free so you don't accidentally hit anything.
