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.

What Our Clients Say

Frequently Asked Questions About Mini Excavators

Have questions about renting or buying equipment in Ottawa? Here is what we hear most.

What is the difference between a mini excavator and a full-size excavator for sale?

A mini excavator, typically less than 6 tons, can easily fit thru regular gates. But, a full-size excavator gives you more reach and depth when the job calls for it.

How much does a mini excavator for sale cost in Ottawa?

The price depends on size, how long you will be running the machine and any attachments you may need. Either way, you will get a written quote before you sign up for anything.

Can I rent a mini excavator instead of buying one in Ontario?

Renting makes sense for shorter jobs, no question there. Talk to our team, and we’ll help you sort out whether renting or buying used lines up better with your project length and your numbers.

What is a used mini excavator for sale best suited for?

Contractors and landscapers who want dependable digging power without the new-equipment price tag. Especially when the machine won’t be running every single day, this is where they land.

Do you offer financing on used mini excavators for sale in Ottawa?

Yes, we finance both new and used mini excavators across Ottawa and Peterborough. We tailor the terms to fit your business rather than using a fixed package.

What brands of mini excavators do you carry in Ottawa and Ontario?

We have mini excavators from major manufacturers with parts availability and dealer support throughout Ontario. Our team can walk you thru which brand fits your job.

How long can I rent a construction excavator for?

Need it for a day, a week, or a month? We’ll build the rental terms around your project. And every machine goes out fully inspected and safety certified, regardless of rental length.
