The ultimate guide to renting trenching equipment…

Dig like a Pro by partnering with Rent-All. Trenching projects, whether for irrigation, electrical lines, plumbing, or landscaping, require efficiency and precision. Renting a trencher from Rent-All can save you time, and energy, and potentially avoid injury on the job. Below is a guide that will equip you with the knowledge to rent the perfect trenching equipment for your project.

WALK-BEHIND TRENCHERS

Ideal for smaller jobs or tight spaces, walk-behind trenchers are user-friendly and maneuverable. Walk-behind trenchers typically trenches up to 36 inches deep and 6-12 inches wide. Industry-related tasks such as installing sprinkler systems or electrical lines for small areas, the walk-behind trencher is your perfect rental.

RIDE-ON TRENCHERS

For larger-scale projects, ride-on trenchers offer superior power and handle deeper and wider trenches (up to 6 feet deep and 24 inches wide). These are ideal for extensive trenching jobs like sewer line installation or drainage pipe work.

TRENCHING ATTACHMENTS

If you already own a skid/track steer, consider renting a trenching attachment. Not only is this a cost-effective option but it allows you to transform your existing equipment into a trenching machine for smaller projects. Contact our rental associate to understand the compatibility between our attachment and your equipment.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT TRENCHER

KEY FACTORS TO CONSIDER.

• Project Scope: Consider the trench depth, width, and total length required.
• Soil Conditions: Dense or rocky soil demands a more powerful trencher.
• Accessibility:  Walk-behind trenchers are better for confined spaces, while ride-on trenchers excel in open areas.
