Speeding Up Home Renovation Projects with the Equipter 4000

The timelines for home renovation projects can often go well beyond what crews and homeowners initially intend. With a little bit of planning and strategy, one area where it’s possible to save time on a renovation project is through efficient debris removal. This article will cover ways the Equipter 4000 can minimize the time spent on debris removal and disposal.

One of the most widely used debris management solutions on renovation projects is a dumpster, providing a centralized location to dispose of debris, broken materials, and unwanted items. Renting a dumpster is a convenient option for large-scale renovation projects. However, getting material to a dumpster is not simple. Crews can use wheelbarrows, hand trucks, and dollies to get debris to a rollaway dumpster but lifting the material is hard work that can cause strain and may lead to accidents. The Equipter 4000 is a perfect piece of equipment for this task. Debris can be deposited inside of the Equipter’s box at the renovation location and the self-propelled Equipter can be driven from the renovation site to a dumpster where it can lift and dump the debris directly into the dumpster.

Another common issue for renovation projects is how to move debris from a second floor. Crews can move debris through the home, walking materials down stairs and around tight spaces, but this is not ideal for a homeowner. Again, the Equipter 4000 is the right tool to tackle this problem. The Equipter’s box can be lifted to a second story balcony or to a second story window where debris can be thrown into the Equipter’s box instead of being disassembled and moved through a home. Here is a video or an Equipter assisting in a second floor bathroom renovation.

Every homeowner is concerned about their property and lawn. Moving a rollaway dumpster onto a lawn and leaving it there for an extended amount of time is not likely to be a popular solution for most homeowners. The Equipter 4000 is made with landscaping in mind, designed with large back wheels to distribute its weight so that it doesn’t leave ruts in yards. In addition, Equipter offers stabilizer pads and track mats as accessories. Track mats are thick and durable panels designed to further distribute weight and provide additional ground protection. Unlike rollaway dumpsters, the Equipter can be towed by a pickup truck, making the rental process less reliant on delivery.

The Equipter 4000 is available to rent at nearly 400 rental locations from coast to coast. You can find a rental location near you using our rental map.
