About Edison, New Jersey

Edison sits at the intersection of some of New Jersey's busiest commercial and residential construction zones, with Route 1 and the New Jersey Turnpike corridor driving ongoing warehouse, retail and utility work. Contractors working industrial sites near Raritan Center or along the Route 27 corridor regularly need mini excavators for trenching and grading, and skid steers for tight-site material movement. Residential projects across older neighborhoods—landscaping overhauls, basement excavations, driveway demo—generate consistent demand for smaller equipment that local owners can supply without the overhead of a national chain. Aerial lifts and scissor lifts see steady use on commercial retrofits and the kind of mid-rise industrial work common to Edison's mixed-use zones. Big Rentals connects contractors and homeowners directly with local equipment owners so they can compare availability, specs and pricing before booking.

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.
