From excavation and site prep to interior finish work, here’s what we keep in rotation for Manhattan crews. Each machine is sized for compact urban work: no oversized units that can’t clear a standard gate or freight door.
A Bobcat E35 mini excavator (starting at $425/day) handles trenching, foundation work and utility digs without needing a full lane closure. It’s the right call for basement excavation and small demolition where a full-size excavator simply won’t fit.
For exterior work, the JLG 450AJ articulating boom lift (starting at $675/day) reaches around building setbacks and overhangs. For interior ceiling work, electrical or HVAC access, the Skyjack SJ3219 electric scissor lift (starting at $155/day) is compact enough to roll through most standard doorways and runs clean indoors with zero exhaust.
The Wacker Neuson vibratory plate compactor (starting at $100/day) handles soil and base compaction before paving, patio work or slab pours and it’s light enough for one person to maneuver on a small footprint.
Why Manhattan Contractors Call J.E.H First
Manhattan doesn’t run like the rest of the region. A crew might get a two-hour loading dock window, a DOT sidewalk permit that expires at 4 p.m. or a freight elevator that only fits certain equipment dimensions. We plan around those constraints instead of working against them, so your equipment rental lands when the crew is actually ready to use it.
Built for the Way Manhattan Actually Builds
Most Manhattan work isn’t ground-up construction on an open lot. It’s renovation inside occupied buildings, utility work under street permits and commercial buildouts on a tenant’s deadline. We rent to the people who handle that kind of work every day:

Manhattan Delivery, Neighborhood by Neighborhood
We coordinate equipment delivery across Midtown, Lower Manhattan and the Financial District, Upper Manhattan and everywhere in between. Downtown loft renovations, Midtown commercial buildouts, uptown brownstone projects: the logistics differ block to block and we plan the delivery window around your specific address, not a generic borough estimate.
Working outside Manhattan too? We also serve contractors across all five NYC boroughs, plus Long Island and Nassau County.
Equipment Rental Rates in Manhattan
Rates depend on the machine, rental length and delivery logistics for your address. Daily rentals suit a single task or a short punch-list item. Weekly and monthly terms bring the per-day cost down and make more sense for ongoing renovation or excavation work. We’ll quote you a straight number before you commit, with no vague “call for pricing” runaround and we’ll flag delivery or access fees up front if your site needs special coordination.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you deliver to a building with a narrow loading dock or freight elevator?
Yes. We ask for your building’s access details up front: dock dimensions, freight elevator size and any timing restrictions from building management. That’s how we match you with equipment like the Bobcat MT100 or a compact scissor lift instead of a machine that shows up and won’t fit through the door.
Do you have equipment that works indoors?
An electric scissor lift, like the Skyjack SJ3219, runs with zero exhaust and works well for interior ceiling, electrical, or HVAC access. It’s the standard choice for occupied or enclosed buildings where a gas or diesel machine isn’t practical.
Can I rent equipment for just one day?
Yes, daily rentals are available on most of our fleet. If your project runs longer than planned, we can usually extend the rental rather than have you return and re-book, which saves a second delivery trip.
What if street parking or permits limit my delivery window?
Tell us about any DOT permits, alternate-side restrictions, or building-imposed delivery hours when you request a quote. We build the delivery schedule around those limits instead of guessing and showing up at the wrong time.
Do you deliver, or is pickup required?
Both are available. Most Manhattan contractors choose delivery given parking and storage constraints on site, but pickup from our Melville yard works too if that fits your logistics better.
