Equipment rental service, also known as equipment hire or tool rental service, is a service that provides equipment, tools and machinery to customers for a certain period of time in exchange for a fee. These services are typically offered by companies that own and maintain a fleet of equipment, which they then make available for rent to customers. The equipment can range from heavy construction equipment like excavators and bulldozers to small hand tools like power drills and saws.

Customers may include individuals, small businesses, and large corporations that need equipment for a specific project or job and prefer to rent equipment as they may not have the need or budget to purchase it outright. The rental service providers can offer the customers the flexibility of renting equipment for a specific period of time, and the customers can return it after the job is done, this way they can save cost on the maintenance and storage of the equipment.

Rental companies typically provide different rental options such as daily, weekly, and monthly rentals, and also can provide delivery and pickup services, as well as equipment maintenance and repair services. Some rental companies may also offer an option to rent-to-own, where the rental fees can be applied towards the purchase of the equipment.
