Traffic Equipment & Road Sign Rentals

If your project or special event lasts a few days or weeks, renting equipment is a better solution than buying your own. It gives you the opportunity to try the latest traffic safety products without committing to an expensive purchase. If you don’t like something, you can always bring it back. Buying, maintaining, storing, moving equipment from job to job and insuring the equipment can cost more than renting if you use it less than 75 percent of the time. If you already own some equipment, renting will allow you to fill in the gaps on those projects where your existing fleet just might not be the right equipment for the job.

Renting is also one of your most cost-effective options as it allows you to conserve your capital for other projects and opportunities. By writing off construction equipment rentals you can increase your borrowing power. Rental equipment does not show as a liability on the balance sheet, which will allow you to show better assets-to-liabilities ratio.

Why Rent?

To get the right equipment for the job. A one size fits all strategy can cost more over the course of a project. By renting the equipment needed for specific jobs, you can ensure that you have the exact equipment needed to get the job done in a correct and timely manner.

Delivery of Rental Equipment

We provide delivery service for all of our traffic control construction equipment and signage rentals. When the order is ready, we can either contact your courier or arrange one for you. We offer same- or next-day delivery in major cities and 3–5 days if you’re in a very remote area. With a trucking fleet at our disposal, our On-Street Services division can also deploy the equipment for you. Our crews bring the equipment to site, set it up, and take it down when the event or project is over.

Rental Equipment Repairs

As part of our service agreement, we repair all the equipment we rent. Don’t be afraid to take advantage of it: it’s always better to repair something before it breaks and leaves you in a bind. If your equipment ever does break down, we have locations across Canada and our closest branch can quickly handle the repair.
