Our Rental Equipment Keeps Lawns and Landscapes Safe!
The rental equipment Advantage provides is in a category of its own. The name is Miniature Articulating Loader! These machines are a newer category of equipment in the US, but they have really BIG things to offer. There are three things that make Miniature Articulating Loaders a “Feat of Engineering.”
- 1Miniature Articulating Loaders use a combination of hydraulic drive motors and mid-machine articulation to drive and turn the machine. In essence, the machine turns by pivoting in the middle and sending different fluid flows to each wheel that prevents any twisting or skidding motions across lawns, patios, or rock and landscape areas. These machines turn in an impressively small diameter without tearing up the ground…at all!
- 2For all the capabilities of these machines, they are impressively lightweight. Ranging in weight from 2250lbs to 4500lbs (depending on the machine), these units are similar to driving a honda civic across your lawn instead of a big diesel truck. They leave virtually no trace.

Our rental equipment is outfitted with turf tires, similar to that of a lawn mower. These tires prevent major rutting caused by normal tractor wheels or blocky skid steer tires.
How Much Can Miniature Articulating Loaders Safely Lift?
Each series of loader has its own lift capacity rating. Below is a comparison of the weight of the machine to its lift capacity. Pay attention to the lift-to-weight ratio. It doesn’t get more impressive than this…
WOW! There is no rental equipment on the market that compares to this! Machines that can lift almost as much as they weigh…unheard of…
Until Now.
Commonly Asked Questions about our Mini Articulating Loader Rentals
Tell Me More about the Telescoping Boom…
Adding a telescoping boom is just over the top…Pun intended! Every operator has encountered a situation where they need their machine to reach just a little…bit…farther. These are the details that make or break efficiency. The telescoping boom allows the mini-loader to reach between 9 and 10’ off the ground or several feet past the front tires.. These tiny rental machines can load high-sided dump trailers, lift a pallet of shingles up to the roof line, or reach way in under low tree branches to dump mulch or remove rocks. The utility is exceptional and, frankly, unmatched by any other machine on the market.
Can I Fit A Mini Articulating Loader Through A Gate?
Almost certainly! Not all gates are equal, but if you have an opening at least 38” inches wide, we have a machine for you. Ranging in width from 36 inches up to 52 inches, it is very likely that you will fit. If your gate is too narrow, a quick solution is to take down a fence panel. This 15 minutes of extra work will be well-worth the time savings for your project and will save you tons of cleanup time and lawn or landscape damage. Don’t let the gate opening stop you from using the most productive rental equipment on the market!
Is the Machine 4 Wheel Drive?
Yes! The hydraulic drive capabilities sends fluid to and drives all four wheels in a carefully calibrated system to avoid ground damage. There is a 4×4 lock function that will drive all four wheels with equal power for maximum pulling strength or to give better traction in a sticky situation.
How Fast Does the Miniature Articulating Loader Travel?
Depending on the loader, travel speeds range from a top speed of 7.5mph to 14mph. This is like a brisk run. But you are not running…you are sitting… and the machine is doing all the work 🙂.
How Fuel Efficient is A Miniature Articulated Loader?
Miniature Articulating Loaders are very fuel efficient. As an example, the 500 series Mini Loader features a 9 gallon diesel fuel tank and a 25hp engine. An engine of this size sips fuel rather than guzzles fuel like a 60 or 70 horsepower skid steer. By some calculations, using a mini-articulated loader over the useful life of 5000 hours can save up to $35,000 of fuel over a skid steer (fuel prices vary). That is no small amount of fuel and savings and emissions reductions!
