When deciding on a budget for a project, it's crucial to know what you should expect to pay for the heavy equipment involved. This figure can be the difference between a modest landscaping budget and a small home loan. Renting equipment and doing the work yourself provides a cost-effective alternative for the weekend warrior on a budget. Fortunately, your local Home Depot offers competitive prices for heavy equipment rental. Here is what you can expect to pay for the Home Depot’s four most commonly rented pieces of equipment.
- The Kubota BX25 Tractor Loader Backhoe. From landscaping to small scale demolitions, this tool will suit a variety of project needs. You can expect to pay between $160 and $1,732 for the Kubota, depending on the duration of your project. The best value found for most projects is the rent 3 get 4 free deal. For less than the price of a 3 day rental, you can keep the machine all week.
- The Terex PT30 Compact Track Loader. This versatile piece of equipment will cost between $167 for 4 hours and $1,808 for the entire month.
- The Z-Plugr Aerator and Seeder. The Z-Plugr can have your lawn looking luscious and healthy with less than a day’s worth of work. It will only cost you $139 for a 4 hour rental.
- The Boxer 320 Compact Utility Loader. The Boxer will make the smallest dent in your budget, costing only $97 for a 4 hour rental.
