When you rent a car or an apartment, it’s natural you want to get your money’s worth as much as possible. This also goes for renting equipment such as mower rental and other landscaping equipment hire. Whether you’ve picked up a pressure washer or a strimmer, you’ll want to get as much use out of it as possible to ensure it is worth the money you are spending.
In this guide, we’ll explain how you can get the most out of your rental equipment.
Only rent from trusted hire companies
Time is of the essence, and the last thing you need is to hire a piece of gardening rental equipment only for it to be faulty or broken. This means you’ll have to spend time contacting the rental company and sorting out a replacement. Additionally, some companies may try to scam you with your money and claim you were the one who broke the equipment. Make sure to only use trusted companies that you have used before or that have plenty of good reviews online.
Watch out for hidden fees
While you may think you’ve gotten a good price, some companies may have hidden fees that can pop up over the rental period. These slowly add up and before you know it you realise you haven’t received a good deal. Always enquire about fees that aren’t listed so you can be sure what you are paying.
Check the weather
If you’re planning to spend the week landscaping a property and hiring out lots of equipment only to have three whole days of rain, you’ll have wasted your money. Always check the weather forecast if your landscaping work is weather-dependent. It would be a shame if you were unable to use the equipment throughout the entire rental period because of the weather.
Choose the right tool for the job
Make sure you know what equipment you need for the job. If you haven’t done your research you may turn up to the first day of the job only to realise the equipment you; 've rented won't work. You probably won’t be able to get your money back and you’ll have to rent out the right piece of equipment for an added cost.
