About Akron, Colorado

Akron sits at the center of Washington County's high plains agricultural economy, where construction work often revolves around irrigation system installs, grain storage facilities, outbuilding foundations and rural road maintenance. A mini excavator or skid steer handles the bulk of that work — trenching for water lines, grading gravel drives and moving material across uneven terrain. Contractors working on commercial builds along US-34 or utility upgrades in town will find scissor lifts and boom lifts useful for elevated work on structures where conventional scaffolding isn't practical. Residential and farmstead owners tackle their own projects too, from fence line clearing to debris removal, where a dump trailer saves multiple haul trips. Equipment supply in smaller rural markets can be limited, and some local rental operators carry only a narrow inventory. Big Rentals connects renters with equipment owners across the area so you can compare available machines and book directly.

The initial rental period must be paid in full at booking. If you need more time, extensions can be requested before the rental period ends and require advance payment before they are approved.

If you think you might need extra days, book them upfront. Last-minute extensions depend on availability and owner approval.

What is the Big Rentals damage protection policy?

Before operating rented equipment, contact your insurance provider to confirm whether your policy covers liability or damage claims related to the rental.

Eligible rentals booked through Big Rentals also include Basic Rental Protection at checkout. This added protection can help limit your financial responsibility for certain damage or theft events during the rental period.
