What to consider when renting earthmoving equipment

• Agree who covers routine servicing, wear parts and breakdown response during the hire, and how a replacement machine is arranged if one is needed.
• Check what the rate includes: fuel, operator, insurance, consumables and the supplier's breakdown response.
• Share the site location, access route and start date so the supplier can confirm availability for your dates.
