About Ely, Nevada

Ely sits at the center of White Pine County, where copper mining history and active ranching operations create consistent demand for heavy equipment rentals. Contractors working highway corridors like US-50 and US-93 rely on skid steers and mini excavators for grading, utility trenching and site prep in terrain that ranges from high desert flats to rocky slopes. Ranch and agricultural property owners frequently need dump trailers and compact excavators for irrigation work, fence line clearing and debris removal across large parcels. Commercial projects in downtown Ely and along the main business district call for scissor lifts and boom lifts for facade work, signage and building maintenance where aerial access isn't always easy to source locally. Because equipment supply is limited this far from major metros, comparing available inventory matters. Big Rentals connects renters directly with local equipment owners so you can find what's available, compare rates and get your project moving.

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.
