Excavator Rental, Excavation Equipment Rentals, Mini Excavators For Rent

Hydraulic Excavator Rentals | Rent Excavator Attachments and Demolition Hammers | Excavating

Many construction jobs require excavating and excavation applications. There are a number of options available when it comes to excavator rental equipment. Excavators are heavy equipment used not only in construction, but in the forestry, waste handling, mining and aggregate industries as well. An excavator rental typically consists of a boom, bucket, and cab on a rotating platform known as the house. Modern excavators operate using hydraulic fluid, either as rams or motors. The excavator's capacity to move earth and to relocate materials on a large scale makes it an indispensible asset to the construction site and one of the most common types of construction equipment rentals used in the heavy equipment industry.

Excavators combined with available hydraulic attachments are used for a wide variety of construction applications including digging, earth moving, demolition, material handling, brush cutting, forestry work, landscaping, and heavy craning. Excavators are also known as diggers, 360-degree excavators, or simply shortened to 360. Excavator rentals are available in many sizes, from compact mini excavators for small jobs to some of the largest excavators used for mining. Excavators are equipped with one of 2 different varieties of booms. Most excavators are equipped with a monoboom, which only moves up and down. The second type of boom is the knuckle boom excavator, which moves left and right as well as up and down.

Excavator Rental - Crawlers and Wheeled Excavators

On many digging jobs, versatility of the excavator is important to the overall value of the rental equipment. The ability to undertake and complete multiple types of work, from general construction to utility contracting, is what helps make a wheeled excavator a smart choice. Wheeled excavators for rent can offer high travel speed coupled with a smooth ride, making them very efficient. Faster cycle times are facilitated by load sensing hydraulics working in conjunction with a high torque swing motor. Wheeled excavators are more environmentally friendly as well, with generally lower external levels of sound. Their operating weight allows them to be used on roadways, further adding to their versatility.

Crawler excavators can be rented for your biggest general construction jobs, including quarrying, mining, scrap handling and road building. Safe, efficient and durable, modern crawlers are engineered with advanced hydraulic systems that allow digging and lifting that is smooth and responsive. Operators find a comfortable seat in the cab with unrestricted visibility allows confident and efficient accomplishment of tasks like precision grading. Crawler excavators can be rented which are designed with interchangeable front attachments, and are therefore capable of wider varieties of work. These rental excavators are designed with strong digging force to power you through demanding excavation applications.

Mini Excavator Rentals & Compact Excavators for Rent

A compact or mini excavator rental is a construction equipment vehicle whose utility stems from its smaller size and lighter weight. Compact mini excavators are available for rent in both tracked or wheeled versions. Normally equipped with a standard backfill blade, these excavators feature an independent boom swing which can rotate in a 360 degree radius. The compact excavators work group and blade are activated by hydraulic fluid acting upon hydraulic cylinders. Almost all come equipped with a house, an undercarriage and a workgroup. 

A rented mini excavator can be used in tight spots where a larger excavator may not have practical access.  Having a smaller footprint in combination with significantly smaller swing radius makes a compact excavator well suited for working in a confined area. Some compact excavaors are small enough to fit through a residential gate. Some are designed with rubber treads to minimize damage to lawns.

The smaller size of the compact excavator doesn't keep it from handling tuff jobs. Common functions of the compact mini excavator include digging, tracking, grading, leveling, trenching, and basic dozer functions. Breaking up rock, digging trenches for pipe, digging holes for pools or septic tanks, and landscaping are all jobs these machines are designed to do. 

Mini excavators are also ideal for minimal disturbance of traffic when taking up sidewalks or doing jobs close to a street or traffic area. 

Excavators and Demolition Applications

Excavators are versatile pieces of heavy machinery that are often rented for earth moving, demolition and scrap management jobs. They are available for rent with a variety of attachments that more quickly expedite demolition applications. An extended arm, also called a long reach excavator, can be an invaluable tool for a contractor to rent for specific applications where the utility of the long arm can be utilized to either more quickly expedita a job, or tackle one which otherwise could not be attempted .

Mining Excavators and Aggregate Excavation Applications

Heavy duty excavators are rented for use in surface mining and open pit mining operations. Bucket wheel excavators and other large-scale mining equipment such as bucket chain excavators are among the largest vehicles ever constructed.

Hydraulic Attachments and Excavator Tools

Excavators can be equipped with a variety of hydraulic attachments and tools which allow the rental equipment to perform multiple construction applications. This makes them an extremely versatile machine and is why they are always seen at work in the construction, mining and aggregate industries.

Frequently rented attachments include different sized buckets, concrete/stone breakers and processors, augers, compaction wheels and grapples.

Many excavators feature a quick coupler, which allows for simplified attachment mounting, increasing the utilization of the excavator on the site. 

- Tilt buckets which are used for digging large holes or scooping up rocks and dirt to be moved out of the way.
- Grapples are used for picking up rocks and trees and other large objects that buckets can't scoop up. 
- Clearing rakes are utilized for filtering through dirt to remove unwanted objects or smoothing out a surface. 
- Metal shears for cutting metal and other very hard materials that you need cut into different sections. 
- Wood splitters which are used for cutting trees into different sections for easier hauling.
