You're Getting Charged Too Much — Here's Why:
In many cases, companies like yours are paying way too much for equipment rentals. Why? Because most rental companies price their loaders and heavy equipment like they’re selling gym memberships:
- You get a daily, weekly, or monthly rate no matter how much you actually run the machine.
- You could run it 40hrs or 200hrs monthly - same rate.
- You could only be using it half the time — still paying full price.
It’s like signing up for an annual gym membership at $1,372 and you only end up going twice a month — now each visit costs you nearly $60!!—Same goes for your rental, at first, that might not seem like much… but on long-term jobs? That’s thousands of dollars gone for equipment that’s barely moving.
And guess who’s pocketing that money? The rental company.

The Real Cost of Standard Rental Rates
Zero Downtime Excuses
Equipment shows up on time — or it’s free delivery
If something breaks, we fix it fast — not when it suits us.
Every month, standard pricing means:
💸
You’re paying for hours the loader isn’t working
💸
You’re burning budget that should go to your crew or your bottom line
💸
You’re padding the pockets of a rental company that doesn’t care

Although we have delivery equipment at 11:30 PM on a Friday night in a snowstorm, in all honestly we aren’t set up in all locations to meet the demands of an emergency call at any hour for the day so we won’t promise we are and then underdeliver.
We’re contractor-owned, charge by actual hours used, guarantee on-time delivery, and answer our phones at 5 AM. Most big corporate rental companies can’t say any of that.
