In particular, one type of popular machinery that is often rented out in the construction industry is the mini excavator. Niftier to use than their larger counterparts, these can be extremely beneficial to your day to day operations – here’s why.
Maneuverability
Though larger equipment and machinery may reduce work schedules, they also struggle to maneuver on uneven surfaces and smaller areas because of the more oversized loads they can carry. Depending on the type of work you do, a mini excavator can effortlessly move in any sized space. Another benefit of smaller equipment and machinery, as opposed to larger ones, is that you do not need to plan your work around due to space constraints.
Accessibility
Often overlooked is the transportation of equipment and machinery onto worksites as well as storage. Large machines are difficult to transport themselves and need abnormal logistical solutions to move them through high-traffic areas. Storage of these types of machines is also difficult, especially if they are rentals. Whereas mini excavators and sorts generally can be loaded onto trailers for transport and can easily fit into most storage containers on worksites.
Productivity
With larger equipment and machinery, productivity may be higher for operations, but that is hindered by clean up afterward. Because of the size of these, they often halt other operations on worksites. Additionally, they may have adverse effects, such as excess dust and damaged surfaces, potentially impacting the construction work’s structural integrity if not used properly.
With all of these key benefits in mind, these types of rental VI equipment can add value and increase your return on investment with every project. Using a mini excavator rental sunbelt on your worksite can lessen your workload without compromising on your quality and service in any way.
