Available Tractor Types

Here are some possible variations of Tractor rentals in Columbia

Tandem Axle Tractor

Tandem axle tractors are named for the second axle and set of wheels that are included tandem to the front wheels. That additional axle and set of wheels allow tandem axle tractors to haul heavier loads than a single axle. The additional tires also provide a smoother ride and increased shock absorption but will increase weight and reduce fuel efficiency.

Single Axle Tractor

A single axle tractor only has one axle and two sets of wheels. This makes them lighter and more maneuverable than the tandem axle, but they cannot carry as much weight as the tandem. As a tradeoff, they are also more fuel-efficient, saving you money on long-haul trips where every gallon of fuel matters.

Sleeper Cab Tractor

With a sleeper compartment attached to the cabin, sleeper cab tractors can be cost and time-efficient. This sleeper cab allows the driver to pull over and rest on long-haul trips, rather than needing to find a hotel for every night of a long trip. Different variations of sleeper cabs even come with restrooms and other amenities, making for a very comfortable driving experience. Sleeper cab tractors are typically used for long-haul trips but can be used for daily hauling and deliveries as well.

Tractor Brands

COOP offers multiple brands of rentals in Columbia, check below for some potential brands for rent depending on availability.

Freightliner

Freightliner has built up an excellent reputation over the decades they have been in business. As one of the most popular tractor brands on the planet, their tractors are preferred by drivers all around the globe for their powerful yet fuel-efficient engines. In addition, a great driver experience has made Freightliner extremely well-regarded among drivers and tractor enthusiasts alike.

Volvo

As a company that has been manufacturing for the transportation industry since 1928, Volvo has the experience and reputation that is hard to beat. Their reputation is so great, in fact, that they can charge higher prices for their models than similar competitors based solely on that reputation. As the second highest-selling tractor manufacturer in the world, their commitment to safety and innovations in the driver experience has led this brand to be favored by truckers all over the world.

International

As a leading global producer of vehicles for all duty and cargo types, International trucks are some of the best that a driver could ask for. International tractors are known worldwide for an unwavering commitment to excellence, and many of their tractors come with the option of International or Cummins brand engines. The Lonestar tractor from International has a unique aerodynamic design that provides optimum fuel efficiency, along with International brand quality and reliability.

Mack

The Mack brand has always been associated with toughness by truckers and non-truckers alike for a very long time. Mack may be the only brand whose logo you will see on t-shirts when far away from truck stops or trucker hangouts because of that dependability that the brand represents. Although their powertrain is known to be able to provide their trucks the ability to handle heavy loads for high mileage that other tractors cannot, technology has also been a leading factor for the Mack tractors remaining on the top five list of US tractors for so long. Mack trucks are also highly customizable, meaning you may have many different choices for options when you choose to rent a Mack tractor on our COOP platforms!

Tractor Uses

The tractor rented on COOP can be used for any of your business needs. Here are some examples of the types of uses for Tractors rented on COOP.

Landscaping

Landscaping companies are fortunate when they can win large, commercial jobs for the first time. But those bigger jobs bring on bigger requirements and the need for larger equipment and machinery. If your landscaping business in Columbia is moving into bigger projects or purchasing bigger equipment to handle your customers, a tractor rental is a great choice. If your business needs a tractor but would prefer to rent over purchasing your own, COOP could be the perfect solution for you and your business needs.

Long Distance Hauling

Tractors are built to carry heavy loads for the long haul in ways that no other transportation vehicle can. For the longest of long-distance hauling, the sleeper cab tractor can provide a time and cost-effective solution. By having a sleeper compartment included, drivers can pull over to rest and save precious time rather than finding a room every night of the trip, also saving money for the room. An even more cost-effective strategy is to use the COOP platform to rent sleeper cab tractors for your long-haul needs rather than buying a truck yourself!

Construction Equipment

Large construction jobs, and even some small ones, need heavy equipment that needs a transportation solution to get to the job site. Additionally, for the long jobs, you may need a storage trailer to keep materials and tools safely secured on-site and out of the weather. This means that construction companies need a way to get both heavy equipment to the job site, and a way to tow their storage trailers. If you own a growing construction company in Columbia that needs to haul large or heavy construction equipment to your project sites, join COOP today to find the perfect tractor rental for your business.
