About Oskaloosa, Iowa

Oskaloosa sits at the center of Mahaska County, where construction activity ranges from rural utility installations and drainage work to commercial builds along A Avenue and residential development on the city's expanding edges. Contractors working drainage tile, septic systems or site prep on agricultural parcels rely heavily on mini excavators and skid steers — equipment that handles tight rural lots as well as open field conditions. Homeowners tackling landscaping, outbuilding pads or debris removal after storm damage find the same machines useful for smaller-scale work. Boom lifts and scissor lifts see regular use on commercial and light industrial projects around the downtown square and along the Highway 63 corridor. Dump trailers round out most job sites where material hauling is part of the scope. Big Rentals connects renters with local equipment owners in and around Oskaloosa so they can compare options and book what fits the job.

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.
