Heavy Equipment Rental Services

Added: Mar 23, 2016 3:38 am Q/A

Q1: It is not common practice in Japan to rent/lease equipment with operators due to insurance liabilities and licensing. Will the Government consider providing operators?


A1: Some companies in Okinawa provide heavy equipment with operators. The Government has no manpower for operators.
--------------------------------------------

Q2: A 10 Ton dump truck is not and rentable/leasable item in Japan. They are privately owned and are priced by tonnage and distance not by a flat daily rate. If a trucker would price such a daily rate, he/she would consider a fully loaded truck traveling from Itoman to Hedo Misaki twice a day and would not be cost effective to the Government. Would the Government consider deleting item 19 and seek 10 ton trucking on a separate contract?

A2: This contract is a reccurrent contract, and 10 Ton Dump Truck is rentable item. However, considering the frequency of rental history in the past, we will cancel 10 Ton Dump Truck in the Price Exhibit. Please fill out Price Exhibit A when you submit your offer.

Q3: A 20 Ton High Floor Bed is not and rentable/leasable item in Japan. They are privately owned and are priced by tonnage and distance not by a flat daily rate.

A3:  There is no 20 Ton High Floor Bed trailers in Price Exhibit. 10 Ton High Floor Bed trailer with operator is available in Okinawa's local market at a daily rate.
