The self-driving and towable Equipter 4000 trailer has become a pivotal piece of equipment for many rental businesses across the country. You may have wondered if the Equipter fits into your rental business. This article will cover ten elements of a successful equipment rental business plan and how the Equipter 4000 can be a component of your rental business.

At the 2023 IRE Show in Dallas, Equipter presented the concept for a new product line: a unit that shares the capabilities of all-terrain forklifts, pallet jacks, piggyback forklifts, and telehandlers with Equipter’s unparalleled transportation technology that enables the unit to be transported without the need for a trailer. This is the Patent Pending Equipter Tow-A-Lift.

The Equipter 4000 is well known for being able to lift its 4.1 cubic yard box, catch debris, and then dump its contents. Every trade show season, there are people who are surprised to learn about two of the Equipter’s other primary features that puts it into its own class: the Equipter’s ability to be towed and the Equipter’s ability to drive under its own power. This article will explain what a self-propelled and towable trailer means for your jobsite in real world terms.

Maintaining steady business for your rental company takes hard work and persistence. However, blood, sweat, and tears don't need to be a thing if you choose to work smarter, not harder.

Just like any other business, every equipment rental company needs a solid marketing strategy. But sometimes it's tough to know where to start. 

One of the most important documents that business owners use in the rental industry is a rental equipment inspection checklist. Giving a checklist to your service techs will let them know exactly what is expected of them and will ensure your equipment is always in good condition for the next customer.

An important part of your equipment rental company's business plan is determining which industries you want to serve, especially if you're just starting the business.

You've already decided that you want to rent equipment to those working in manual labor, but you'll need to narrow that down to even-more specific industries. This will help your company provide the best pieces of equipment for them. 

So, which manual labor industries should you be serving? We share insight on that and why in this article. 

Whether you're just starting an equipment rental company or looking for ways to improve how you do business this year, it's crucial to create and constantly monitor the business plan that works best for achieving your specific goals.
