A commercial pad is a sequence, not a shopping list. Dirt work wants excavators and loaders. Steel and tilt-up want telehandlers and booms. Interiors want electric scissors. Renting an 80 ft boom in week one “because we will need it later” is how you pay for a parked machine.
In This Guide
Site work
5.5-ton class minis for utilities and footings, CTLs for material, trench rollers if the inspector is real. Compaction is a spec, not a vibe.
Structure and envelope
8k 44 ft telehandlers feed material. 40–66 ft booms put people on steel and walls. RT scissors for straight-up work on a dirt pad. Articulating when the work hides behind the structure.
Interiors
Swap to electric slab scissors by height class (19/26/32/40) and width. Indoor floor-load notes start mattering the day the slab is yours.
Do not mix the phases on one PO
Tell us the week, not the project name. Call (801) 880-8800 and we will stage machines so you are not paying for a telehandler during paint.

Machines on the lot
Live inventory rotates. These are current machines in the related rental collections — not a promise that a specific used unit is still here.
