When you need heavy machinery to tackle big projects, our bulldozer rental services have got you covered. As one of the largest bulldozer rental fleets in North Carolina, we offer a huge selection of dozers to meet your needs. Whether you're looking for a small utility dozer or a massive mining machine, learn everything about renting bulldozers below.

Get to Know the Different Types of Dozers

Bulldozers range greatly in size and power. In fact, according to the Construction Equipment Guide, bulldozers can weigh anywhere from 10,000 pounds to over 300,000 pounds. The smallest dozers may weigh around 10,000 pounds yet are nimble enough for precise grading and landscaping. On the other end of the spectrum, giant mining dozers can surpass 300,000 pounds! In between are dozers suited for all types of earth-moving work. You can choose from utility bulldozers, production dozers, waste handler dozers, and more when renting based on your particular project.

Consider Utility Offer Versatility

For light- to medium-duty jobs, utility dozers provide versatility at a lower cost. They work well for backfilling, land clearing, grading, small excavations, and more. Though compact compared to larger dozers, utility models still boast impressive blade capacity and power. Renting a utility dozer allows you to tackle a variety of projects requiring maneuverability.

Ramp Up Production With Larger Dozers

For heavy-duty earthmoving, production dozers deliver more muscle. With increased weight and power, production dozers make quick work of mass excavation and large construction projects. Their blades also have a higher capacity for moving more material per pass. When you're on a deadline, production dozers bring speed and efficiency.

Handle Tough Environments With Specialty Dozers

Some dozers are equipped for niche applications like waste handling or demolition. Waste handler dozers feature specialized guarding and seals for working around landfills and transfer stations. Demolition dozers have attachments tailored to razing buildings or clearing brush. Rent a specialty dozer when contending with extreme environments.

Get Precision GPS Tracking

Our entire bulldozer rental fleet uses advanced GPS and telematics systems. When you rent, you can access real-time positioning data and machine health metrics through an online portal. GPS tracking helps minimize idle time, prevent unauthorized use, and boost security. If your job site changes locations, just log in to see your dozer's coordinates.

Understand How Dozers Get the Job Done

Bulldozers utilize a front-mounted blade to engage and move material. The tracks provide continuous contact with the ground for push power. As you move forward, the blade slices into the surface at an angle before filling with material. Angling the blade outward allows you to carry the load along to where you want to deposit it. It takes skill to efficiently cut, lift, push, and spread material with a dozer blade.

Prepare the Work Area for Maximum Efficiency

While dozers provide the muscle, you'll get the best performance on a properly prepared work surface. Remove obstacles, vegetation, and debris ahead of time so the site is clean for the dozer to operate. Define site perimeters and slopes with grading stakes or markers. Making sure the blade won't catch on buried objects will keep projects on track.

Transport Dozers Using Oversize Equipment

Since dozers are oversized, specialized trailers are needed to transport them. We offer optional delivery and pickup that handles transporting your rental dozer with the proper equipment. Our operators are trained in safely loading and securing dozers for transport to your location. Let us worry about logistics while you focus on your project.

Trust Our Ongoing Mechanical Service

To keep our rental fleet in prime working order, every dozer undergoes rigorous maintenance between rentals. This includes engine and powertrain services, fluid changes, track adjustments, blade repairs, and replacement of any worn parts. For extra assurance, our preventive maintenance program means dozers get fine-tuned mechanics work even before issues arise.

With one of the region's largest inventories of rental bulldozers, we back it up with years of experience. Our veteran team offers guidance to make sure you end up with the right dozer for your needs.
