Durante Rentals Continues Expansion with New 20,000-Square-Foot Rental Facility in Carmel, N.Y.
Durante Rentals announced the grand opening of its new full-service rental facility in Carmel, N.Y. At 20,000 square feet, the new store is five times larger than Durante’s previous Carmel location and is its second location in Putnam County. The store is situated near the main thoroughfares of I-84, Route 52, and Route 311.
The new location will offer rentals, sales, parts, and service of equipment for construction, industrial and homebuilding applications. This larger location will allow Durante Rentals to better service its Westchester, Putnam, and Fairfield County customers by bringing in millions of dollars of new equipment to the area, including boom lifts, backhoes, air compressors, forklifts, excavators, generators, scissor lifts, and more.
“This new Carmel facility is strategically located to quickly and efficiently service our northern customer base as we expand into new geographies,” said president of Durante Rentals Liam Harrington. “This larger building improves our operational efficiency and reinforces Durante’s commitment to a best-in-class rental experience for our customers. We have resumed our growth strategy and expect further expansion in 2021.”
The new showroom will carry everything a contractor needs, including chainsaws, generators, safety gear, diamond blades, traffic safety products, accessories, and more. The space will also feature a fully stocked parts department, a 10,000-square-foot service center, and plenty of customer parking.
The Carmel store will be open from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday to Friday. For more information or to inquire about available sales and service positions, visit Duranterentals.com or call 845-456-6969.
