The benefits of renting heavy equipment reach far beyond cost-effectiveness. Although renting has always been a possibility, it has now become more popular as companies are realizing its various advantages. From 2019-2020, rentals in heavy equipment increased by 75 percent, as people continued to understand the benefits and potential of boosting company bottom lines. However, renting heavy equipment comes with added challenges.
For instance, the rental companies tend to provide the idle equipment that may not be in optimum condition or are technologically back-dated. This certainly diminishes the ROI as the equipment is prone to breakdown. Moreover, renting heavy equipment requires equal skills and knowledge as owning one. When renting equipment, a contractor can find himself submerged in multiple critical situations, solving which can incur added cost.
The rental business model of Mahindra Construction Equipment has successfully cleared the air, leaving no point of 'what if?' in an EPC contractor's mind. Hello Machines the CE rental service of Mahindra Construction Equipments, is built upon the notion of performance, trust and satisfaction. It is customary for Mahindra to provide only the latest model for rent which is again backed by a comprehensive end-to-end service.
