Roofing is two jobs: packs on the roof, people at the edge. A telehandler does the first. A boom or a properly placed scissor does the second. One machine pretending to do both is how tear-off days turn into incident reports.
Material
8k 44 ft class for most two-story homes if you can get close. Compact 19 ft for tight lots and single-story. 10k 56 ft when you are stuck in the street. Forks, not buckets, for palletized product.
People
Fascia, soffit, and wall transitions often want a boom, not a telehandler basket as an all-week platform. Scissors work on driveways that are level and strong enough — not on lawns.
Tear-off
Dump trailers earn their keep. Wet shingles are heavy. Do not overload the 6×12 because the 7×14 “felt like overkill.”
Wind
Wasatch gusts shut aerials down. Pack placement on a windy ridge needs a chart and a brain. Call (801) 880-8800 if the forecast is ugly.

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.
