The Home Depot Rental Center at Preston Hwy

When you're preparing to make the leap into a major DIY job, you might not have every tool you need in a shed. That's when you should stop by The Home Depot Preston Hwy Tool Rental Center.

Tool Rental
Our tool and equipment rental choices expand your toolbox and toolbelt with the precise tools you require to complete a DIY job. It's not practical to get a specialty tool when you're not using it frequently. When you're in the market for a new tool, do a trial run before you select which to purchase. Whatever your situation, we have just what you're looking for.

Make Painting Easier with Paint Sprayers and Rental Scaffolding
Take advantage of longer spring days and paint outdoors. Rent paint sprayers to get professional coverage fast and renew surfaces. Rent scaffolding and ladders to reach elevated locations when painting fences, houses, and sheds. We carry step ladders and extension ladders for medium or smaller jobs, so you won't have to wait when inspiration strikes.

Rent Post Hole Diggers, Floor Sanders, and Shop Vacs
Tackle major projects with reliable power tools. Get your garden bed ready for spring with a tiller rental or ensure fresh sod lays just right with a sod cutter rental. Construct a new fence around your property faster and more efficiently with a post hole digger rental, then use other concrete tools that suit your job.

Truck Rental
Choose one of our trucks when you're in need of a pickup or flatbed truck. It's great for hauling a large purchase or tool rental. With excellent availability and a price to match, our vehicles are ready to roll, so you can keep moving on your project. We've also got Penske moving trucks and box trucks to help ease the stress of a big move. Availability varies by store, so check our FAQ or speak to an Orange Apron to ensure you choose the right rental truck for you.

Large Equipment Rentals
Complete massive projects with the right pro power equipment. Our large equipment rentals give you the power you need to finish the job. From the boom lifts to give you a boost to the mini skid steers and mini excavators capable of hauling materials on outdoor job sites, we've got an expansive variety of equipment available. If a large equipment rental could help you, explore and see what we've got in stock.

Although we're calling out popular tool, truck, and large equipment rentals, not everything is available at every rental center. If you've got a particular tool in mind, please contact your local rental center to see where you can pick it up.

Frequently Asked Questions about Rentals

How do I rent large equipment, tools, or trucks?

Stop by your local Rental Center to see what tools or trucks you can rent. If you'd like confirmation before you drive there, call first to inquire about a tool, truck, or large equipment. You may also visit our tool and equipment rental or truck rental pages to see if what you need is in stock at your local store. For more info on renting tools or large equipment, read our Tool Rental FAQs, including terms and conditions for the equipment.

Can I rent large equipment or tools by the hour?

You can rent a tool or large equipment for four hours or more. Simply choose the length of time that suits you. Small home improvement jobs may only require a rental for a few hours, and bigger jobs can also be accommodated. You've got options to rent large equipment and tools by the day, month, or week, too. If you need it longer than anticipated, call your Rental Center to arrange an extension and avoid late fees.

When do I return the tools?

You can return the tools early if you complete your project sooner than predicted, but on-time works, too. Just make sure to bring them back by the deadline listed on your rental paperwork. Please clean off any mud or dirt from the tool as well. If you need them longer, give the rental center a call to see if you can extend your rental period.

How long can I rent a truck?

Rent a box truck, cargo van, or flatbed truck for as long as you need it. For short trips, 75 minutes might be enough time. Otherwise, consider renting it by the day or the week, depending on the length of your project. Don't forget to factor in the drive to and from the store, as you must bring it back to the same store where you rented it. Penske moving truck rentals allow round-trip options as well as one-way options, and they have different terms. Be sure to read the terms and conditions before choosing your truck.

Do I need to refill the rental truck with gas?

Yes, please fill up the truck before you return it. Match the level of gas that was in the tank when you got the rental. If you don't, you'll be hit with a penalty known as the fuel replacement charge.

Can I rent a truck or large equipment with only a driver's license?

No, you also need to be 21 or older, in addition to holding a valid driver's license. Depending on your state, you may require car insurance, as well as a credit card hold or a deposit, too. We don't accept cash for Home Depot truck rentals, so please bring your credit card. Penske moving truck rentals have different requirements. Select tools as well as large equipment also require ID verification via CLEAR.

Do I need to go get my large equipment rental?

Depending on your location, you may be able to get large equipment dropped off at your job site for a reasonable cost — at your home or out in the field. We'll need at least 24 hours notice so we can prepare your rental delivery for you and you'll need to rent it for a full day. Speak to an associate for the best way to get your large equipment.

How do I avoid penalties and extra fees on rented large equipment?

Treat your large equipment rentals as any other vehicle: Make sure it's parked legally and you obey traffic laws. Read the instructions so you're using it correctly to avoid damaging the equipment or injuring yourself. Also, plan ahead to ensure the equipment is ready when you are. If you cancel within 12 hours of your scheduled delivery, you'll pay a cancellation fee. Make sure to return equipment by the deadline or extend the rental period to accommodate the extra time you require.
