Rugged terrain becomes a challenge in the fall — from muddy slopes to leaf-covered hills. Choosing the right machinery can affect safety, efficiency and project success. At Leppo Rents, we offer both tracked and wheeled equipment to help you conquer tricky fall conditions with confidence.
Tracked equipment is the best choice for difficult ground conditions. Let’s take a closer look at the advantages.
Tracked machines, like track loaders and mini track loaders, are designed to traverse soft, slippery and uneven terrain. Their continuous tracks distribute machine weight over a larger area, offering better grip and less ground pressure. This means:
Tracked equipment is best for large draining or control projects, uneven or muddy hillside grading, and fall landscaping or land clearing on disturbed ground.
Wheeled machines, like compact wheel loaders, excel in speed and maneuverability. They offer faster travel between sites and are generally more cost-effective on stable surfaces. Wheeled equipment offers many advantages:
Wheeled equipment is best for handling materials on stable surfaces like gravel and pavement, snow removal, clearing leaves or debris, and efficiently transporting materials between jobsites without the need for trailering.
Leppo Rents offers a variety of attachments to tailor machines further to fall terrain projects:
Let’s examine a few different scenarios and what equipment works best to understand how to select the right equipment for your next projects.
Traction and stability are crucial when working on steep or muddy terrain. A tracked loader is your best bet in this case, offering better ground contact and reduced risk of slipping, even on challenging inclines.
A wheeled loader is the ideal choice for fast, efficient removal of leaves, debris or snow from stable surfaces like asphalt or concrete. Its speed and maneuverability help get the job done quickly with minimal surface wear.
If your fall project includes both hillside grading and flat-surface cleanup, consider renting both types of machines. Use the tracked loader for the heavy lifting on unstable ground and the wheeled loader for clearing and transport on solid surfaces.
