Equipment Rentals in Buckhead, GA
Buckhead is one of the closest communities to our Madison home base. Located in eastern Morgan County, the area includes rural properties, farms, wooded acreage, lake-area properties, and homesites where access to heavy equipment can make property projects much easier.
Cornerstone Equipment Rentals provides equipment rentals and jobsite delivery to Buckhead, Georgia, for property maintenance, land clearing, excavation, driveway work, drainage, fencing, landscaping, and site preparation.
Equipment for Acreage Around Buckhead
Many projects on larger properties don't justify owning a skid steer or excavator year-round. They do, however, justify having one available for a day or several days when there's serious work to accomplish.
Around Buckhead, that might mean:
- Reworking a washed-out gravel driveway
- Cleaning up wooded acreage
- Moving dirt or gravel
- Digging drainage
- Installing fencing
- Clearing storm debris
- Preparing an area for a barn or shop
- Moving logs, brush, and other heavy material
Because we're based nearby in Madison, Buckhead is firmly within our local equipment-delivery territory.
One Skid Steer, Several Different Jobs
Our Kubota SVL65-2 skid steer can change jobs simply by changing attachments.
For grading or material handling, use a bucket. For brush and limbs, use the grapple. For fencing, connect the auger. For certain narrow trenches, the trencher provides another option.
Available attachments include our:
- 72-inch grapple bucket
- 72-inch smooth bucket
- 72-inch toothed bucket
- 48-inch pallet forks
- Skid steer auger
- 48-inch trencher
See our complete skid steer and attachment collection for current options.
Excavator Rental for Heavier Property Work
Our JCB 85Z-1 excavator is an approximately 18,000-pound zero-tail-swing excavator equipped with a 36-inch toothed bucket and hydraulic thumb.
The hydraulic thumb is particularly useful for land and property work because the machine can grab material instead of relying solely on the bucket.
That makes it useful for projects involving:
- Logs and fallen trees
- Rocks
- Brush piles
- Storm debris
- Drainage excavation
- Ditch cleaning
- Site preparation
- General digging
- Wooded-property cleanup
For projects where the skid steer handles grading and material movement while the excavator handles digging and larger debris, renting the machines together can provide a much more capable setup.
Gravel Driveways and Rural Access
A rural driveway doesn't need to be completely destroyed before it needs attention.
Small ruts and drainage problems can gradually become larger washouts. Gravel gets displaced, potholes develop, and water begins following the driveway instead of moving away from it.
A skid steer can be used to recover gravel, bring in additional material, fill low spots, and reshape damaged sections.
If water is causing the problem, the project may also require drainage work. That's where an excavator or trencher may become useful before the final driveway grading is completed.
Fencing Without Digging Every Hole by Hand
Fence projects are another good example of where renting the right attachment can make a major difference.
Our skid steer auger can be paired with:
That gives customers options for different post sizes and projects involving fencing, gates, signs, or landscaping.
Underground utilities should always be properly located before drilling or excavating.
Equipment for Lake-Area Properties
Buckhead's location in eastern Morgan County also puts it near properties around Lake Oconee. Lake-area properties can create different equipment needs from a typical residential lot, particularly where wooded acreage, drainage, gravel access, storm cleanup, or moving heavy material is involved.
A skid steer can handle grading, gravel, brush, and material movement, while the excavator can provide additional digging capability and handle larger logs, rocks, and debris.
Equipment should be operated carefully around shorelines, slopes, and saturated ground. Projects involving substantial land disturbance or work near the lake may also have additional requirements that should be checked before excavation begins.
Planning a Larger Property Improvement?
Buckhead is an incorporated town within Morgan County, and Morgan County Planning & Development handles a number of planning, permitting, and inspection functions for the communities within the county.
Before beginning significant construction, grading, or land-development work, customers can review Morgan County Planning & Development and Morgan County zoning information.
The important part is determining any applicable permitting or approval requirements before scheduling the equipment rather than discovering them after the rental period has started.
Haul Away What You Clear
Property cleanup often creates a second problem: what to do with everything after it's piled up.
Our 7×16 dump trailer has 4-foot sides, a 14,000-lb GVWR, and hydraulic dumping.
For appropriate loads, it can be used to move:
- Brush
- Storm debris
- Dirt
- Gravel
- Landscaping materials
- Construction cleanup material
- General property debris
Pairing the dump trailer with the skid steer or excavator can make loading and cleanup considerably more efficient.

Local Delivery to Buckhead
Because Buckhead is in Morgan County and close to our Madison base, this is one of the areas where renting locally makes particularly good sense.
Cornerstone Equipment Rentals provides jobsite delivery to Buckhead and surrounding properties, including delivery of equipment that requires a heavier truck and trailer to transport.
Tell us where the equipment is going and what you're working on, and we'll help determine the appropriate equipment and delivery availability.
Choose the Equipment Around the Job
If your project primarily involves grading, gravel, loading, material movement, brush cleanup, or multiple attachments, start by looking at the skid steer.
If the job involves deeper excavation, drainage, greater reach, logs, rocks, or heavier clearing, look at the excavator.
For fence projects, consider the auger. For certain narrow trenches, look at the trencher. If the project generates material that needs to leave the property, add the dump trailer.
