About Port Washington, Wisconsin

Port Washington's compact grid of older residential streets and its ongoing lakefront and harbor-adjacent development create consistent demand for mini excavators and skid steers — machines that can maneuver tight lots without tearing up finished work. Contractors working utility corridors along Grand Avenue or tackling foundation and grading projects on the bluffs above Lake Michigan often need equipment for short windows, making daily and weekly rentals practical. Residential landscaping and demo jobs throughout neighborhoods like the historic district benefit from dump trailers to haul debris without relying on a full crew. Commercial and light industrial work near the STH-33 corridor, including warehouse and retail buildouts, pulls in scissor lifts and boom lifts for overhead tasks. Some local equipment owners list their machines through Big Rentals, letting contractors and homeowners compare availability, specs and rates 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.
