Need to rent one for two weekends near the end of the month. where is a good place to go?

Is there anything I need to know about renting one? I'm doing some work on a barn.

It needs to be ~45 ft. and hold at least one person and some tools.

I thought for sure this was for the tree.

your looking for a personal lift, not a boom truck I am guessing... don't get a scissor lift, and if your working on the roof a 3arm would be nice, but you can probably do everything with a "boom" lift that's just one arm. remember the farther you get away from the base the less weight you can have in the basket :teehee: and if your going to be dealing with a lot of materials get a bigger basket and these are not a "hoisting" tool!

its only has to lift one person and some painting tools/paint. just repainting a barn. but the peak it 40-50 ft at its tallest.

Try NES Rentals. That is where we get all of our lifts from. You should be able to rent daily, weekly, or monthly.

Don't know if they have anything that big, but Orion Rental is a good place to deal with in the Orion/Oxford area. THey might direct you somewhere if they don't have a lift that high.

I was told I would have to keep it clean of overspray when I was looking to paint my house. Dont know if they will charge you to "clean" it when you return it.

thanks for the info. I have a bunch of plastic I can put on it to keep it clean. I figured they wouldn't want it all painted up when I get done with it.

keep it clean, any rental place will charge you for damages if it is returned with paint on it

how much paint dripped on it is considered damage can vary though...safest bet is to cover it with plastic like you mentioned, damage charges can rack up pretty high
