Wildcat Tool Rental

Tips for renting equipment

Call or use our contact forrm to describe the project you would like to complete with rented equipment. When Wildcat Rental knows the details of your project, we can recommend exactly the type and size of equipment you'll need for most lawn and garden and home improvement or repair projects. Wildcat Rental will help you organize the additional supplies you'll need to complete the job correctly. Wildcat Tool Rental carries all the extras, you need to do a professional job.

Before you actually go to the rental store, organize the work area so you can use the equipment right away when you bring it home. For example, if you're shampooing a carpet, remove furniture from the room before you pick up the shampooer. This preparation can save you money because the rental center charges for the time the equipment is in your possession - not for the time you actually spend using it.

When you pick up the equipment, a Wildcat Rental staff member will explain how to use it safely and correctly. If you don't understand the instructions or feel uncomfortable about operating the equipment, ask for more information. We are always glad to help our customers to insure a safe tool rental experience.

Make sure you understand the Wildcat Rental's rates, store hours and policy for returns. Some equipment is available to rent by the hour, half day, day, week or month. Generally, hourly rates have a set minimum time that is less expensive than renting for the entire day. Please call a Wildcat Rental at 417-753-8665, or view our Rental Policies page if you have any questions.

Make sure you understand your responsibility for the equipment. Generally, Wildcat Rental is responsible for equipment maintenance and will replace equipment that breaks down during normal use. But when damage occurs because of a customer's negligence or misuse, he or she is responsible for repair or replacement. For expensive equipment in your possession, construction equipment and tents are examples, you may need to provide on-site security or purchase temporary insurance.
