Here are some frequently asked questions to help you choose the right construction equipment rental for your project:
1. What size scissor lift do I need?
Scissor lifts come in various platform heights and weight capacities. Consider your maximum working height and the weight of workers and materials you'll need to lift to choose the appropriate size.
2. Can I cut concrete with a regular saw?
No. Standard saws are not designed for the abrasive nature of concrete. For concrete cutting, you'll need a concrete saw equipped with a diamond blade.
3. What's the difference between a core drill and a hammer drill?
Core drills extract a clean cylinder of material, while hammer drills create a chipped hole. Core drills are ideal for precise sampling or creating clean holes for pipes or conduits.
4. Do I need a plate compactor for every project?
Plate compactors are essential for compacting soil, gravel, and asphalt to ensure a stable, level base. If your project involves laying foundations, walkways, or driveways, you'll likely need a plate compactor.
5. What size excavator should I rent?
Excavator size depends on the depth and reach of your digging needs. Mini excavators are great for smaller projects with limited space, while larger excavators tackle extensive trenching or demolition.
6. What can a Toro Dingo do?
Toro Dingo is a compact utility vehicle with various attachments, making it a versatile tool for landscaping, material handling, and light-duty digging tasks.
7. What's the difference between a wheel loader and a skid steer?
Both load and move materials, but wheel loaders excel at high-speed transportation over long distances, while skid steers offer superior maneuverability in tight spaces.
8. How deep can trenchers dig?
Trenching machine digging depths vary depending on the model and its attachments. Typical trenchers can handle depths from a few feet to over 10 feet.
