Construction Rental, Inc. has been in business since 1962.  It was originally called Crane Rental, Inc.  In 1987, the company's cranes were sold, and since then the company has focused on smaller construction related equipment.The original store is in Salina, KS.  In 1972, a store was opened in Grand Island, NE, and a third store opened in Kearney, NE in 1990. 

Although the nature of our business has changed somewhat, our overriding purpose has not:  to provide the contractor with reliable, well maintained equipment, and to provide tools and supplies for sale that are used in the construction trade 

Since 1992, we have placed an emphasis on our sales inventory, and especially on those items that are hard to find or not readily found at the "big box" stores.  We have also developed an extensive network of suppliers that can quickly provide items not stocked on a regular basis. 

As an added service to the contractor, we have shops in each location that are equipped to service and repair all types of construction equipment.  And we will pick up and deliver the equipment to be repaired.
