Q: Can I pair a water trailer with pumps or hoses?
A: In many cases, yes. Pumps, hoses, and spray bars can be added to create a complete setup tailored to your needs. Availability may vary by location; your local Cat dealer can help you choose compatible equipment for your application.

Q: Do you deliver and pick up rentals?
