Title: Tool Time – Rent vs BuyTopic: When’s a good time to purchase your tools vs rent and vice versa? There are a lot of factors to consider and we delve into them all!Guest: Tim Allen, American Rental Association.Website: www.ararental.org 3 Points for Success – Tim Allen: Be prepared. Plan ahead and reserve equipment when you’re going to need it and, on the flip side of that, don’t rent the equipment before you’re ready so you’re not paying for equipment that isn’t being used.Try to work together as a team with the equipment rental store. They've probably seen solutions that you may not be aware of. It's their job to really stay on the latest cutting edge. So try to make sure that, you know, when you're talking to them instead of always asking for a specific piece of equipment. Know the value of everyone's time. The equipment rental yard, just like the contractor out there, is really trying to maximize and leverage their time.
