About Aspen, Colorado

Construction in Aspen moves on a compressed seasonal calendar, with contractors pushing hard through summer and fall to complete excavation, foundation work and landscaping before the ground freezes. Mini excavators are in constant demand for tight residential lots along Cemetery Lane and in the West End, where narrow access limits what equipment can realistically maneuver. Skid steers handle grading and debris clearing on the hillside properties above town, and boom lifts are regularly needed for exterior work on the tall, multi-story custom homes that define much of the local residential market. Dump trailers support the steady flow of excavated material and construction debris coming off active job sites throughout the valley. Commercial remodels along Hyman Avenue and Main Street add to equipment demand when the building season peaks. Big Rentals connects contractors and property owners with local equipment owners in the Aspen area so renters can compare available inventory and book directly.

The initial rental period must be paid in full at booking. If you need more time, extensions can be requested before the rental period ends and require advance payment before they are approved.

If you think you might need extra days, book them upfront. Last-minute extensions depend on availability and owner approval.

What is the Big Rentals damage protection policy?

Before operating rented equipment, contact your insurance provider to confirm whether your policy covers liability or damage claims related to the rental.

Eligible rentals booked through Big Rentals also include Basic Rental Protection at checkout. This added protection can help limit your financial responsibility for certain damage or theft events during the rental period.
