AnswersFrequently Asked Questions

What is Equipment as a Service?

Bulk owns the fleet on your site, carries the maintenance risk, staffs technicians, and keeps you running for a predictable monthly cost with zero capital outlay. It is uptime as the product, not rental days. The Four Ways section above compares it to rental and ownership.

Does Bulk service equipment brands it does not sell?

Yes. Our field service is brand-independent: any machine, any OEM, whether we sold it or not, dispatched from four regional hotlines and backed by shops in Michigan City, Indiana and Memphis, Tennessee.

What equipment does Bulk carry?

Everything mobile in heavy industry, from 10 ton counterbalanced forklifts to 400 ton industrial transporters: reach stackers, loaded and empty container handlers, slag pot carriers, terminal and RoRo tractors, material handlers, mill maintenance machines, and electric forklifts. Each category card above links a full guide.

Should I buy, rent, or run Equipment as a Service?

It depends on utilization, budget, and how much downtime risk you want to own. High-utilization permanent operations lean toward ownership or Equipment as a Service, project work and seasonal demand lean toward rental, and most sites run a mix. Tell us your duty cycle and we will lay out the options.

Where does Bulk operate?

Headquarters in Michigan City, Indiana with a shop in Memphis, Tennessee, a core territory across the Midwest, an expansion territory across the Southeast, and service plus equipment relocation available nationwide.

How much does heavy equipment cost?

Cost depends on machine class, capacity, and configuration. Each category guide linked above publishes what drives cost in its class, and we quote machines to the specific application.
