Effective January 13, H&E Rentals has opened a branch in Villa Rica, Ga., the company’s third new location this year and its seventh facility in the state of Georgia.
“Our fifth facility serving the Atlanta metro area now elevates our service to customers outside the city toward the west, from I-285 all the way to the Alabama state line. The placement of this new branch extends our reach to projects in outlying areas and allows us to better serve Rome, Cedartown, Rockmart, Carrollton, Douglasville, Mableton – and all points in between,” said branch manager Tony Vuckovich. “Our proximity to H&E’s existing Marietta and Fairburn facilities gives us the advantage of working together to source the equipment from an expanded local fleet. We’re off Highway 101 with quick access to Highway 78 and I-20, so we can efficiently move equipment to job sites and be more responsive.”
The Villa Rica 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.
Founded in 1961, H&E is one of the largest equipment rental companies in the United States, No. 6 on the RER 100. For more information, visit HErentals.com.
