As spring construction projects begin to ramp up, it’s important to have the right equipment to handle earth-moving tasks effectively. Whether you’re excavating, grading, or hauling materials, renting the right machinery can save time, money, and effort. At Leppo Rents, we offer a variety of high-quality earth-moving equipment to ensure your projects run smoothly. Here are the top earth-moving rentals to consider for your spring construction work. 

Excavators

Excavators are the go-to machines for digging trenches, foundations, and other complex excavation tasks. They are versatile, with long-reaching booms and hydraulic capabilities for heavy lifting. With a variety of attachments, excavators can handle everything from landscaping to complex excavation projects. 

Mini excavators bring these same advantages in a compact, easy-to-transport package. Designed for maneuverability in tight spaces, they provide small but mighty power while remaining operator-friendly. Their ability to accommodate multiple attachments makes them an excellent choice for contractors who need flexibility without sacrificing performance. 

Top Features: 

  • Powerful hydraulic system for deep digging 
  • Long-reach capabilities 
  • Multiple attachments available for added versatility 

Bulldozers

When it comes to pushing large amounts of dirt, bulldozers are the go-to machines for many construction projects. Their wide tracks allow them to maneuver across rough terrain, making them ideal for grading, clearing, and leveling. Renting a bulldozer is especially useful when preparing the land for foundations or clearing large plots of land.  

Top Features: 

  • Powerful engines for heavy-duty work 
  • Wide tracks for stability on soft ground 
  • Adjustable blades for grading and leveling 

Skid Steer Loaders

Skid steer loaders are compact and versatile machines perfect for a variety of earth-moving tasks. Their ability to maneuver in tight spaces makes them ideal for landscaping, digging, and hauling small loads. They’re a popular choice for residential construction projects and are known for their efficiency in both urban and rural settings.  

Top Features: 

  • Compact size for tight spaces 
  • Interchangeable attachments (buckets, forks, etc.) 
  • 360-degree maneuverability 

Wheel Loaders

For jobs that require heavy lifting and material handling, wheel loaders are a great rental option. These machines are equipped with large, front-mounted buckets that can scoop up and move earth, gravel, and other construction materials. They’re ideal for loading and unloading materials into dump trucks or moving soil around a jobsite.  

Top Features: 

  • High lighting capacity 
  • Easy to operate with great visibility 
  • Durable for moving large quantities of materials 

Track Loaders

Track loaders are versatile, powerful machines designed to handle tough jobs in various terrains. With their rubber or steel tracks, they offer superior traction and stability, making them ideal for muddy, uneven, or soft ground. Their compact design allows for maneuverability in tight spaces, while a wide range of attachments enhances their ability to perform tasks like digging, grading, lifting, and material handling.  

Top Features: 

  • Compact size for maneuverability in confined spaces 
  • Multiple attachments available for increased versatility 
  • Powerful lifting capacity for heavy loads 

Trenchers & Trencher Attachments

If your spring construction project involves digging trenches for utilities, water lines, or irrigation, renting a trencher is an excellent choice. Trenchers come in various sizes and can handle the specific depth and width required for your project. They’re efficient and designed to dig long, narrow trenches quickly, reducing the amount of manual labor needed. 

For even greater versatility, trencher attachments can be used with skid steers, track loaders, and other equipment, allowing you to tackle trenching tasks without needing a dedicated machine. These attachments offer adjustable cutting widths and depths, making them ideal for projects that require precision and adaptability. 

Top Features:  

  • Adjustable trench width and depth 
  • High digging efficiency 
  • Designed for both residential and commercial trenching needs 

Plate Compactors & Tampers

After excavation and trenching, achieving a stable, compacted surface is crucial for construction success. Plate compactors and tampers help compress soil, gravel, and asphalt, ensuring a solid foundation for driveways, sidewalks, patios, and other structures. These machines use vibrations and weight to eliminate air pockets, preventing future shifting or settling. 

Top Features: 

  • Compact and maneuverable for tight spaces 
  • Ideal for soil, gravel, and asphalt applications 
  • Essential for creating a stable, long-lasting base
