What types of construction equipment can I rent?

We offer scissor lifts, boom lifts, telehandlers, and aerial work platforms for both indoor and outdoor applications. Not sure what you need? Call us, and we’ll point you in the right direction.

What should I consider before renting or buying construction equipment?

Think about your load requirements, working height, site conditions, and how often you’ll need the equipment. Our team conducts this assessment every day. We can help you determine in minutes whether renting or owning makes more financial sense for your situation.

How does the rental or purchase process work?

It’s straightforward either way. Contact us, tell us about your project and timeline, and we’ll recommend the right equipment, confirm availability, and arrange delivery or pickup. Whether you’re renting for a week or buying outright, most customers are sorted out in a single call.

How do I rent or purchase a lift truck for my project?

Call our Ottawa office or fill out our contact form. Share your load requirements, project length, and site details, and we’ll walk you through your rental and purchase options. The sooner you call, the sooner we can get equipment to your site.

Do you offer both short-term rentals and outright sales?

Yes, and we mean it when we say flexible. Whether you need a lift truck for one day, six months, or want to own one permanently, we’ll build a solution around your actual needs. Reach out today, and let’s get started.

Why Ottawa & Peterborough Businesses Choose AMB Lift for Skid Steer

Ottawa and Peterborough job sites both demand equipment that fits into cramped spaces without losing power. And that’s where a skid steer proves its worth. Clearing snow, grading a yard, or shifting material across a site, having the right machine on hand speeds up everything else.

AMB Lift has served Eastern Ontario with material handling and construction equipment since 1990, and our team brings over 50 years of combined hands-on experience to every skid loader rental. That’s the kind of industry experience that tells you which machines actually hold up through a full Ontario winter.

Our Skid Steer Fleet Available for Sale & Rental in Ottawa & Peterborough

From a single-day skid loader rental to a full skid steer for sale or purchase, our fleet covers every stage of a project’s life.

New Skid Loader for Sale

A new skid loader for sale from AMB Lift comes backed by full manufacturer warranty coverage and the latest attachment compatibility, ideal for contractors who want to be the first ones running it.

Skid Loader Rental

Renting through our skid loader rental program stretches your budget further without sacrificing reliability, since every machine passes inspection before it goes out.

Track Skid Loader

A track skid loader for sale option spreads weight across soft or muddy ground, giving better traction than wheels on wet spring sites.

Mini Skid Steer Loaders

Compact enough for tight backyards and indoor jobs, mini skid steer loaders for sale fit through standard gates most full-size machines can’t.

Wheeled Skid Steer Loader

Wheeled units move faster on hard, flat surfaces like warehouse floors and paved lots, with less wear than tracks on abrasive ground.

Track Skid Steer Rental

Short-term jobs rarely justify a purchase, which is why renting a track machine by the day or week makes more sense than buying outright.

Flexible Skid Steer Sale & Rental Options for Every Budget

Every budget gets the same options: skid loader rental for short jobs, skid steer for sale when ownership makes more sense, or something in between.

Daily, Weekly & Long-Term Rental

Whatever your timeline, our rental terms flex to match the job instead of locking you into a schedule that doesn’t fit.

New and Used Skid Steers for Sale and Rental

Our lineup of new and used skid steers for sale and rental means you’re never choosing between what’s available and what actually fits your budget. Browse the current inventory list before you call.

Financing & Buying Options

Flexible financing plans mean a purchase doesn’t have to strain cash flow, with terms structured around your business, not a generic template.

About Our Equipment & Safety Standards

Every machine in our fleet is safety-certified and inspected by our in-house technicians before it ever reaches your site, whether you’re renting for a day or buying outright. That level of oversight is exactly why Ottawa and Peterborough businesses keep coming back instead of shopping around each time.

Industries We Serve With Skid Steer in Ottawa & Peterborough

Construction & Site Preparation

General contractors use skid steers daily for grading, material moves, and site cleanup on jobs across Ottawa and Peterborough, where tight urban lots demand a compact machine.

Landscaping & Excavation

Rakes, augers, and similar attachments let landscaping crews knock out finishing work without swapping machines mid-job. And for lighter digging tasks, hauling in a full-size excavator often costs more time and money than the work actually calls for.

Agriculture & Farm Use

Farm operations around Peterborough use skid steers for feed handling, manure management, and general yard work year-round, not just during harvest season.

Snow Removal

Winter turns every skid steer into a plow truck, and a skid steer for rent during snow season is often cheaper than owning a dedicated plow rig.

It’s the same machine. Throughout the industry, the terms “skid steer” and “skid loader” are used interchangeably depending on where you are or who you are talking to.

Should I rent or buy a skid steer, which makes more financial sense?

If you need a skid loader regularly, then it’s cheaper to buy one in the long run. For short or occasional projects, renting is usually the best decision.

What is the difference between a track skid steer and wheeled skid steer?

A track skid steer has better flotation and traction on soft or muddy ground, while a wheeled model is faster and cheaper to maintain on hard, flat surfaces.

How do I get a quote for a skid steer in Ottawa or Peterborough?

Contact the AMB Lift team with the size, attachments, and timeline you need. You’ll get a written quote upfront for both purchase and rental, whether you’re in Ottawa or Peterborough.

Can I use a snow plow attachment on any skid steer?

Most modern skid steers accept a universal quick-attach mount, but we’ll confirm compatibility with snow plows for skid steer loaders before you buy or rent.
