About North Star,
Delaware
North Star sits in New Castle County's suburban growth zone, where infill housing, lot clearing and utility work are common across the community's newer subdivisions and transitional parcels. Contractors working drainage, grading or foundation prep can find mini excavators and skid steers through local owners rather than large national chains. Residential projects — from backyard grading and landscape demo to debris hauling — often call for a dump trailer or compact tracked machine that a homeowner can manage without a CDL. Commercial work along the Route 7 and Kirkwood Highway corridors drives demand for scissor lifts and boom lifts for facade, signage and interior buildout jobs. Some local equipment owners list machines they use in their own operations, which means availability can shift seasonally. Big Rentals lets you compare listings from nearby owners, check specs and book directly without going through a rental desk.
