Skip the trip to the rental yard

Most lift rentals make you pick up the equipment, haul it to the job and bring it back. Not ours. We drive the bucket truck to your site, do the lift and drive it away when the work is done.

  • Nothing to pick up, tow or return. The truck shows up at your address.
  • No one on your crew runs the lift. Our trained operator handles it.
  • Your day goes to the job, not to picking up and returning equipment.

Common questions

Do I have to pick up the truck?

No. We come to you. Our operator drives the truck to your job, runs the bucket and drives it away when you're done, so there's nothing to pick up, tow or return.

How do I reserve the bucket truck?

Send us the booking form or call (516) 223-3248. A reservation specialist calls you back to confirm the date, time and job details.

Do I need a credit card to hold my reservation?

Yes. We place a $250 deposit hold on a credit card to confirm your booking. We take card details over the phone, never through the website.

How do I cancel a reservation?

Call (516) 223-3248 at least 48 hours before your reservation and have the reference number from your confirmation email ready. Cancelling with less than 48 hours' notice costs a $150 daily cancellation fee. Refunds go back to the original card, usually within about 7 business days.

Does an operator come with the truck?

Yes. Every rental is fully supervised. We send a trained operator with the truck, along with all the safety equipment.
