Someone above mentioned a skid steer. With the economy the way it is, guys are letting these go REALLY cheap because they can't keep them busy. They are selling for about 1/2 of what they were a couple years ago. My BIL has a construction business and just scooped one up.
It sounds like you just want to move stuff around (not cultivate or mow) so this may be a good option. Even the small ones have enormous lifting capacity. You can also get a lot of attachments / rent attachments if you have a one-off project (also mentioned above).
Look into an equipment auction...they have everything. You can browse around...talk to folks...and see what everything is selling for. We have them around my area pretty regularly.
Also, if you want it...and have the money...and won't make the boss mad...sounds like a done deal. If you buy used at the bottom of the market...you're not going to loose money. Some used equipment actually appreciates in value (older tractors in particular).
