Is Neighborly Rentals Just Another Tractor Rental In Town? Not Quite.


Is Neighborly Rentals Just another tractor rental in town? Not quite. We are here to change the equipment rental game!

Why? Because renting a tractor from traditional rental companies sucks!

When I needed a mini excavator to work on my projects, I quickly realized I didn’t have a big enough truck to tow it, so I borrowed a truck from a neighbor, then I found out no one I knew had a big enough trailer to tow it. So I ended up renting a mini excavator AND a trailer. I booked for 2 days but transporting it took me a good amount of hours. In the end, I had to make sure to return everything before the yard closes so I wouldn’t get charged another day, it was a pain….

So I researched this topic after, and I read countless complaints about Home Depot Rentals, United Rentals, as well as reviews on many local companies around the country, every place is the same, same process, and the same pain, unless you wanna pay A LOT for the delivery.

So, we started Neighborly construction & earthmoving equipment rentals, and we are changing this game!

How? Let me reuse the example I showed above in the Neighborly’s way.

  1. I go to https://neighborly.rentals, select a mini excavator, set a delivery location, my home, in this case. I then setup a drop-off time at 8am and a pickup time at 5pm.

  2. I get a confirmation call from Neighborly Rentals.

  3. At 8am the next day, somebody shows up with the mini excavator at my house.

  4. I use it, finish my project and have a beer. Right around 5pm, somebody from Neighborly shows up and takes the tractor away.

  5. I pay online while drinking my beer, all done.

Yeah, it is SO EASY like shopping on Amazon, but better, because the DELIVERY IS FREE! I don’t need to own a big truck, I don’t need to own a trailer, I don’t need to waste my time transporting it back and forth, life is good!

Some people might think, oh yeah? The delivery cost is probably hidden in the rental rate! Nope, we have a similar rate if not a LOWER PRICE than other companies.

We just started it up, so rental items are limited compared with more established companies, but we are growing fast, check out our reviews from our happy customers to prove the concept!

Where are we going from here? We are getting more equipment obviously. But what is the future for Neighborly? I’m glad you have read this far because this is where Neighborly goes from good&easy to cool! The future is what we call “The Airbnb for construction&earthmoving equipment rentals”. Essentially, people who have machines can lease them through Neighborly’s platform, so those idle equipment can make money for their owners, just like Airbnb for equipment, I will share more on this in future posts.

Thanks for reading.
