Frequently asked questions

Which backhoe loader size class should I rent in Houston?+

The rates above cover 3 classes: 14 ft at $260–$340, 15 ft at $400–$500 and 16 ft dig depth at $530–$630 a day. Renting the smallest class that will do the job keeps both the day rate and the transport charge down.

Is a weekly or monthly backhoe loader rate cheaper in Houston?+

Yes. On the 14 ft class a week costs about 3.2× the day rate and a month about 8.5×, so past a few days it is worth booking by the week, and past two weeks by the month.

What's the cheapest way to rent a backhoe loader in Houston?+

Book by the week or month instead of stacking day rates, consolidate delivery with other work on the same site, and compare quotes from several Houston suppliers.
