“When comparing Plains to other rental firms, we found that Plains pricing and rental terms were the most competitive. Once receiving the customized wheel loader, Plains Equipment exceeded our expectations with incomparable customer service.”

“Plains Equipment rentals provided us with three small loaders for the past winter season. We needed the loaders on very short notice, and Plains came through. Throughout the winter there were service issues as with any equipment. Plains was quick to arrange repair, even on weekends. There were times that one of the machines was down waiting on parts, and Plains steeped up and made it right. Shawn was always available by phone when we needed him. Overall, we were very happy with the service provided.”

Frequently Asked Questions

What size of wheel loader will I need for my job?

The main factors to consider are horsepower, tipping load, and bucket size.

Typically, compact wheel loaders have 80 or fewer horsepower, then 150 to 200 horsepower, 200 to 250 horsepower, and 300 to 400 horsepower. If you compare wheel loaders based on horsepower, you would think that you could make an easy comparison, but you cannot because each manufacturer interprets horsepower differently.

In a stationary position, the tipping load is the payload that causes the rear tires to lift off the ground. This is a wheel loader’s maximum load that can be handled safely and effectively. However, this does not hold true for all wheel loaders because counterweights, tire size, hydroinflation, and chains can all affect tipping loads but not the machine’s size.

Bucket size is often used to indicate loader size, for example, a 6-yard loader has a 6-yard bucket. The bucket size could be increased by using a lighter material density as your standard if you wanted to put a bigger bucket on your machine. Don’t be fooled by salesmen who use bucket sizes without telling you which material they are using.

 

Which wheel loader attachments are available?

We rent wheel loaders with buckets ranging from 1 to 6 yards.

We also have attachments available, such as:

  • Forks
  • Toothed buckets
  • Mat grapples
  • Pallet grapples
  • Log grapples

Do you offer transportation to our job site?

Yes, we work with a large network of different carriers to get your equipment to site on time and on budget!

Are you insured?

Yes we are insured for all short-term rentals up to 2 weeks in duration, for the contracts beyond 2 weeks we require the customer to sign the equipment under their insurance for the time the equipment is on rent.

How is your equipment maintained?

Our equipment receives an 80 point inspection before delivery and careful records are kept of cosmetic and minor flaws.
