Hi everyone. I am located in SW Michigan. I recently aquired a stand-up / ride-on aerator - Classen SA-25. Seems to be a great, solid machine so far, very heavy, pulls great plugs...but I can’t justify the cost unless I am able to share it / rent it out. #1 - Would there be any interest? Maybe you prefer to have your employees run a rented walk-behind that is cheaper? Maybe you already have your own walk behind unit so you arent willing to spend money to rent a ride-on unit? Would there be ANY interest in renting a stand-up / ride-on unit? #2 How much would be a fair price for rental? Would anyone be interested in cheaper rate for summer months? # 3 What term length would you prefer? Daily? Weekly? Monthly? #4 If you normally rent a walk-behind unit - how much more (if any) would you be willing to pay for a ride-on? As far as I can see, nobody in the area or most areas provides this rental option. My goal is to provide a rental service that can increase the profitability of your business and increase employee moral/decrease friction with employees. If this makes no sense and you think this is a dumb idea, I would also love to hear from you! Any advice - positive or negative - would be appreciated!!!! I GREATLY value your input and this concept will be based upon your feedback. Thank you.
