“I rented a dump trailer and a mini ex from them to redo my driveway. I experienced amazing customer service and great communication when orchestrating equipment drop-off and pickup. I will definitely be renting from them again!” — Ryan B.

Starting at $310.00

Description

The E48 is for jobs that would wear out a smaller machine: long utility runs, deeper digs, heavy pipe and structures, and loading trucks all day. It has noticeably more reach and lifting power than the E35, so you spend less time repositioning and more time digging. It still has a compact footprint for a machine this capable, so it works on residential and tight commercial sites.

Good jobs for the E48

  • Basements, foundations and larger footings
  • Sewer, water and storm lines
  • Setting pipe, culverts, catch basins and other heavy pieces
  • Ponds and larger grading jobs
  • Demolition cleanup and loading trucks

Picking the right size

For most backyard and residential work, the Bobcat E35 is plenty and easier to haul. Choose the E48 when the job calls for more depth, reach or lifting.

Before you rent

  • At close to 10,000 lb, it takes a heavy-duty truck and trailer to tow. We confirm your setup at the counter, or we can deliver it on our own trucks. See delivery rates.
  • Bucket included. Ask about extra buckets when you book.
  • Unlimited run hours. You pay for the time it is out, not the hours on the meter.
  • Fuel is billed at our cost, no markup.
