About Orono, Minnesota

Orono sits on the western shores of Lake Minnetonka, where lakeshore lot development, septic system upgrades and shoreline restoration projects keep contractors and homeowners reaching for mini excavators and skid steers throughout the warmer months. Large residential parcels along Willow Drive and County Road 6 corridors see regular grading, drainage work and driveway regrading that benefit from compact equipment able to maneuver without tearing up established lawns. Deck and dock construction on elevated or sloped lots often calls for a boom lift or scissor lift to handle elevated framing and fascia work safely. Landscaping contractors doing retaining walls, boulder placement and tree removal also rely on skid steers and dump trailers to move material efficiently across properties where truck access is limited. Big Rentals connects renters in Orono with local equipment owners so you can compare available machines, check specs and arrange pickup or delivery on your schedule.

What is the Big Rentals damage protection policy?
