About this unit

A single-direction walk-behind plate compactor for base prep under pavers, patios, sidewalks and footings. Fits in a pickup bed — no trailer required.

If you're setting pavers and skipping compaction, you're building something that will move. This is the cheapest insurance on the job.

Rental terms

  • A rental day is 24 hours. Return by the same time of day on your return date. One-hour grace, then hourly to a one-day cap.
  • A refundable $200 deposit is held on your card and released within 3 business days of a clean, on-time return.
  • The optional damage waiver (12% of the rental) means we won't bill you for accidental damage. It is not insurance — it doesn't cover theft, misuse, overloading, unauthorized operators or tires.
  • Runs on Gasoline. Return it at the same level or we refuel at market plus $2/gal. Wrong fuel is not covered by the waiver.
  • Every unit is photographed and documented when it leaves and when it returns, with you present. No surprises either way.
