Effective September 16, 2024, H&E Rentals announces the opening of its Victoria branch, the company’s 32nd location in the Lone Star State. It is also the 10th Texas branch added in the past two years.
“The addition of a new branch in Victoria gives H&E total coverage of the Texas coast, and especially the growing market of Port Lavaca,” said branch manager Brad Nicks. "We reach from lower Texas up toward our San Antonio branch, east toward our Freeport location, and west toward our Corpus Christi facility. Having several other H&E locations within reach allows us to source equipment from an expanded area fleet and provide whatever our customers need for their specific job. Our facility is directly off Hwy 77 with quick access to highways 59 and 87 and I-69E, so we’re ready to deliver out to El Campo, Hallettsville, Cuero, Goliad, Refugio, and down to the Gulf.”
The Victoria branch specializes in the rental of aerial lifts, earthmoving equipment, forklifts, telehandlers, compaction equipment, generators, light towers, compressors, and more. The fleet represents the following manufacturers: Allmand, Atlas Copco, Blue Diamond Attachments, BOMAG, Case, Club Car, Connect Work Tools, Cushman, Gehl, Generac Mobile, Genie, Hamm, Haulotte, Husqvarna, JCB, JLG, John Deere, Kobelco, Kubota, LayMor, Ledwell, Lincoln Electric, Link-Belt Excavators, Manitou, MEC, Miller, Multiquip, Okada, Polaris, Sany, Skyjack, SkyTrak, Sullair, Sullivan-Palatek, Tag, Towmaster, UniCarriers, Vacuworx, Virnig, Wacker Neuson, Yanmar, and others.
