About Virginia City, Nevada

Virginia City's rugged Comstock-era landscape presents real challenges for contractors and property owners alike. Steep grades along C Street and the surrounding hillsides make compact equipment a practical necessity — mini excavators handle excavation and trenching where larger machines simply can't maneuver, and skid steers move material efficiently on constrained lots. Restoration and renovation work on the district's 19th-century commercial and residential structures keeps demand steady for aerial lifts, including boom lifts that can reach facades and rooflines without damaging historic streetscapes. Utility work and drainage projects on the rocky hillside terrain also drive regular equipment needs. For residential and small-scale jobs, dump trailers make debris and rock removal manageable on sites with no direct haul road access. Big Rentals connects renters with local equipment owners across Storey County so you can compare options and book the right machine for the job.

What is the Big Rentals damage protection policy?

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.
