Interchangeable attachments such as buckets, pallet forks, augers and brush cutters make it one of the most versatile machines on a construction or landscaping project.

In most cases you do not need a commercial driver's license to rent a skid steer in California. Yards typically ask for a valid driver's license or government ID, a deposit or credit card, and proof of insurance (or they'll sell you a damage waiver). If you tow the machine yourself, check the trailer and towing-vehicle requirements. Policies differ by yard, so confirm when you request your quote.
Delivery is usually priced as a flat fee or per mile each way, and it depends on the machine's size, the trailer needed and your distance from the yard. Oakland has 1 local yard stocking the skid steer, which often keeps delivery charges lower than hauling from another city. Include your delivery ZIP in the quote form and each yard will price it for you.
