Rental Equipment for Snow and Ice Removal
Winter weather should not slow your operation. With the right snow removal equipment rentals and attachments, you can clear roads, lots, and jobsites quickly and keep people safe. Renting gives you reliable capacity for storms and cold snaps without long commitments. Cat RentalsSM provides maintained equipment, clear pricing, and local support so you can stay ahead of snow and ice.
Rentals help you move fast and control costs during winter. You can scale up for a blizzard, then scale down when conditions improve. You avoid year-round storage and off-season maintenance while staying ready for the next storm. Seasonal and long-term terms keep budgets predictable, and you only pay for what you use.
Machines for Clearing Snow and Ice
Choose the carrier that matches your snowfall, surfaces, and space. Your local Cat® dealer team can help you size capacity, travel speed, and traction for the job.
- Compact track loaders: High traction on uneven or soft ground with strong pushing power.
- Wheel loaders: Versatile performance where snowfall is lighter across the season and where you need speed between piles.
- Skid steer loaders: Easy to operate, low maintenance, and highly maneuverable for plowing in tight areas.
- Mini skid steer loaders: Compact clearing around sidewalks and small lots.
- Backhoes: Productive for curb lines, windrows, and loading operations.
- Dump trucks: Haul snow from congested sites when on-site stacking is not an option.
These machines are built to perform in harsh winter conditions, so you keep roads and work areas open after heavy snowfall.
