Any of you baws in the equipment rental business?

I’m curious about the profit obtained on a rental during the machine’s life cycle. It has to be pretty healthy, there are at least 10 rental companies just in NELA.

In even moderately hot areas (a steady flow of new construction/expansion projects), equipment rental can be extremely lucrative. I imagine most of H&E's offices between Baton Rouge and Houston do particularly well.

Well when your company forgets it has equipment on rent for 6-8 months at a time it can become pretty lucrative.
