All About On-Site Services

Most Common Types of Construction Site Services Equipment to Rent and Their Uses

• Dumpsters: Construction sites create a lot of waste and debris, whether you’re working on a new construction site, a tear-down, or a remodel. Dumpsters are one of the most common pieces of equipment needed on a job site. Sizes for dumpsters vary quite a bit, and depending on local sanitation requirements, you may need one or more dumpsters to put various materials into. Some dumpsters are meant only for dirt, others for construction material and debris, and some for recycling materials. Always check your local city or county regulations for construction waste guidelines.
• Storage containers: Construction tools are a huge investment, and it is important to have them locked in a secure location. Construction materials that cannot get wet also need to be stored out of the elements.
• Towable light towers: Often, workers on construction sites need to work around the clock, including during hours that are dark. Having a light tower not only provides much-needed light to the work area, they also help to illuminate the area for safety reasons. Light towers come in varying heights, with most extending to about 30 feet. Towable light towers are convenient as they can be moved to different areas around the site.

Potential Hazards and Safety Protocols

• Storage containers: Storage lockers come in a variety of sizes and with a variety of locking systems. The doors can be quite heavy to maneuver, and body parts could get caught if not used with caution. Locking mechanisms should be smooth and well-lubricated. Before locking the unit, always check to make sure there is not another person inside. Also make sure that no animals have slipped inside. Do not store hazardous or volatile waste in storage units.
• Portable restrooms (porta potty): Toilets could have pests in them, so always check before using. Make sure the toilet is not over-used and has chemicals to help prevent the spread of disease. Always have a clean hand-washing station nearby.
• Lights: Towable light towers are big and heavy and should be moved with caution. Wear gloves when working anywhere near the lights, as they can be hot. Wear safety glasses when working with lights and light towers, too, as debris could fall or bulbs could break.
