Get Info You Need When Deciding On Equipment Rentals

Yes. Rentals require a minimum five-month commitment, and many contractors choose five months to cover the full snow season.

This helps you plan around real seasonal demand instead of locking yourself into long-term ownership costs. You get access to the equipment when you need it, then return it when the season ends. That means no off-season storage, no summer maintenance, and no year-round payment dragging down your cash flow.

For commercial contractors across the U.S., that flexibility can make the difference between taking on a profitable contract and passing on work because buying equipment feels too risky.

Yes. Each unit requires a $500 deposit. This deposit is applied to your final month’s payment.

That solves the problem of loose reservations and late-season inventory surprises. When you put down the deposit, your equipment is held for the season, which gives you more control over staffing, routes, contracts, and customer commitments.

Before pickup or delivery, you’ll sign your rental agreement, submit valid COIs, and make the required payment. That way, your machine is assigned, your paperwork is handled, and your crew can get to work when the season starts.

Renting helps you avoid heavy upfront capital costs, financing, depreciation, repairs, and storage. A new skid with plow can cost about $70,000, and a new pickup with plow can cost about $80,000, while a seasonal skid steer rental starts at $1,900 per month for five months.

That makes budgeting for equipment rentals easier because your costs are predictable. You can match equipment expenses to snow revenue instead of tying up cash in machines that sit unused when the season ends.

TCB’s approach is snow-specific. The equipment is newer, low-hour, dealer-maintained, and selected for winter work. You are not trying to force a summer machine into harsh winter conditions.

Yes. TCB offers full snow setups, including skid steers and loaders with 10-foot snow pushers and sectional options.

That helps you avoid piecing equipment together from multiple vendors or buying a plow when renting makes more sense for the season. Many dealers would rather sell plows than rent them. TCB gives you one place to get the machine, the attachment, and support from people who understand snow operations.

No. TCB does not rent pickup trucks. The focus is on skid steers, loaders, snow pushers, sectional plows, and attachments made for commercial snow removal.

This helps you avoid a common mistake. Many truck rental agreements do not allow plows, and a truck may not give you the productivity you need on larger sites. A skid steer with a 10-foot plow clears about 65,000 square feet per hour, compared with about 40,000 square feet per hour for a pickup truck with a 10-foot plow.

For you, that can mean faster service, better route production, fewer labor hours, and stronger contract performance.

Yes. Sectional snow plows sit tight to the surface, clear more snow, and leave less snow and ice residue behind. That can help reduce salt use by 30 to 50% per event.

On a 200,000 square foot lot, that can mean less material, fewer reapplications, and real savings across the season. You also give your customers a cleaner site with better service, which can help protect contract renewals and reduce complaints after a storm.

TCB can help with single-unit needs, but the strongest fit is often contractors who need commercial snow equipment for larger sites, multiple properties, or bulk equipment planning.

If you are trying to grow beyond driveways or small accounts, renting larger snow-ready machines can help you bid bigger jobs without buying everything upfront. That gives commercial contractors across the country a way to expand winter revenue while keeping equipment costs easier to control.

TCB serves commercial contractors across the country, including markets like Boston, Chicago, Denver, Detroit, Philadelphia, and Syracuse.

TCB’s units are under warranty and serviced through local dealers. If a warranty repair is needed, TCB coordinates the repair. If downtime is extended due to a warranty issue, TCB can provide a replacement machine at no added cost.

This solves one of the biggest fears contractors have before renting: losing money while a machine sits idle. Instead of chasing service calls, calling dealers, or searching for backup equipment during a storm, you have support from a company that knows snow does not wait.

Not sure how many machines your contracts can support? Call TCB Equipment Leasing to talk through your sites, timelines, and equipment needs before you reserve.

You can pick up from a local yard where available. Delivery can also be arranged at an added cost.

This gives you control. You can handle transportation to save money or ask TCB to coordinate delivery for an added cost. Either way, you can choose what fits your schedule, crew, and budget.

That matters when budgeting for equipment rentals because transportation can affect your real seasonal cost.

Yes. Rental purchase options, buyout options, and extended rentals are available. A portion of your rental payments may be credited toward the purchase price.

This gives you a lower-risk way to test equipment before buying. You can see how the machine performs on your routes, how your operators like it, and how it affects production before making a larger commitment.

For commercial contractors across the U.S., this can turn a seasonal rental into a smarter long-term equipment decision.

Earlier is better. Most contractors wait too long to get their gear in place. By November, inventory is limited.

Reserving ahead of the season gives you access to stronger equipment selection, locked-in pricing, clearer planning, and fewer late-season headaches. If you know you will need equipment, early planning helps you protect your crews, your routes, and your customer promises.
