Equipment for Eatonton and Putnam County Projects

Projects throughout Eatonton and Putnam County can require very different equipment depending on the property and the work being performed.

Our rental equipment can help with:

Land clearing
Grading and leveling
Driveway maintenance
Excavation
Drainage improvements
Landscaping
Fence and post installation
Material handling
Construction and site preparation
Property cleanup

Our equipment and attachments allow customers to select a setup based on the actual project rather than trying to accomplish every job with one machine.

Skid Steer Rentals for Grading and Property Work

Our Kubota SVL65-2 skid steer is a compact track loader suited to a wide variety of Eatonton-area projects.

Common uses include:

Grading dirt and gravel
Driveway maintenance
Moving soil and landscaping materials
Property cleanup
Site preparation
Brush and debris handling
Landscaping
Loading dump trailers

Different attachments allow the same machine to perform very different jobs.

Our skid steer attachments include grapple, smooth and toothed buckets, pallet forks, an auger, and a 48-inch trencher.

For clearing and cleanup work, a grapple bucket can make it easier to handle brush, limbs, logs, and bulky debris. Smooth and toothed buckets provide different options for grading, digging, and moving material.

Excavator Rentals for Digging, Clearing and Drainage

For projects requiring greater digging depth, reach, or material-handling capability, our JCB 85Z-1 excavator is available for delivery to the Eatonton area.

The approximately 18,000-pound excavator is equipped with a 36-inch toothed bucket and hydraulic thumb, making it useful for:

Excavation
Drainage work
Trenching
Site preparation
Land clearing
Handling logs and brush
Moving rocks and debris
Digging on larger properties

The hydraulic thumb is especially useful when clearing property or handling material because it allows the operator to grab and control objects rather than simply digging or pushing them.

Equipment for Rural Properties and Acreage

Putnam County includes rural properties, agricultural land, wooded acreage, and residential areas where equipment may only be needed occasionally.

Rental equipment can help with:

Maintaining gravel driveways
Moving dirt and gravel
Brush and storm cleanup
Preparing areas for improvements
Installing fences
Trenching
Drainage work
Moving pallets and materials
General acreage maintenance

One useful feature of the local permitting system is that Putnam County Planning & Development handles planning and permitting activities for Putnam County and also handles permitting for the City of Eatonton.

Property owners planning construction or significant improvements can use that resource to determine whether building, site-plan, zoning, or other approvals apply to their project.

Equipment for Lake-Area Properties

Putnam County includes lake-area development as well as rural and residential properties farther inland. Property projects in these areas may involve landscaping, grading, drainage, driveway work, cleanup, and moving dirt, gravel, or other materials.

When a project involves substantial grading, excavation, or other soil disturbance, additional requirements may apply—particularly when work is near state waters.

Property owners and contractors can review Putnam County land-disturbance applications and permit information before beginning significant site work.

Driveway and Property Access Work

Gravel driveways and private access areas can deteriorate from traffic, runoff, erosion, and weather.

A skid steer can be useful for:

Moving gravel
Filling low areas
Repairing washed-out areas
Spreading material
General grading
Cleaning up accumulated material

If drainage problems are contributing to repeated driveway damage, an excavator or trencher may also be useful depending on the project.

Auger Rentals for Fencing and Post Holes

Farms, larger residential properties, and acreage around Eatonton may require fencing, gates, signs, or other improvements involving multiple post holes.

Our skid steer auger is available with:

8-inch auger bit
12-inch auger bit
16-inch auger bit

An auger can be useful for:

Fence posts
Gate posts
Sign posts
Landscaping projects
Other property improvements requiring repeated holes

For larger fencing projects, using a skid steer auger can significantly reduce the amount of manual digging required.

Always have underground utilities properly located before drilling or excavating.

Trencher Rentals for Narrow Excavations

Our 48-inch skid steer trencher provides another option when a project requires a relatively narrow excavation.

Depending on ground conditions and the project, a trencher may be useful for certain:

Drainage installations
Water lines
Electrical lines
Utility work
Farm and property improvements

Customers planning significant excavation or grading can review Putnam County Planning & Development applications and forms to determine whether a land-disturbance or other permit applies.

Dump Trailer Rentals for Cleanup and Hauling

Land clearing, landscaping, construction, and property cleanup can generate a considerable amount of material that needs to be transported.

Our 7×16 dump trailer features 4-foot sides, a 14,000-lb GVWR, and hydraulic dumping.

It can be useful for:

Brush and debris
Dirt and gravel
Landscaping materials
Construction cleanup
Property cleanup
Storm debris

For larger projects, a dump trailer can be paired with a skid steer or excavator. The machine handles loading while the trailer handles transportation and unloading.

Land Clearing and Property Cleanup

Wooded acreage and overgrown properties may require several different operations before they're ready for another use.

A skid steer with a grapple bucket can handle brush, limbs, logs, and debris. An excavator provides additional digging, reach, and material-handling capability. A dump trailer can then be used to transport unwanted material away from the property.

Choosing the right combination of equipment can make a larger clearing or cleanup project considerably more efficient.
