Huurland presents new electric articulated loader at Green-expo

Huurland is a 100% Belgian family-owned rental company offering appropriate rental solutions for construction, renovation, installation, finishing, construction and maintenance. Originally from West Flanders, the company has been serving more than 30,000 customers annually for nearly fifty years, spread across twelve branches in Flanders.

All machines are immediately available in Aalst, Bruges, Dendermonde, Eke, Ghent, Kortrijk, Maldegem, Ostend, Roeselare, Zellik and - the most recent branch - Boortmeerbeek (ex Global Rent). In De Prijkels, Nazareth you can find Huurland XL, the specialist branch for large equipment. The latter mainly rents +2.5-ton machines and is running at full capacity. The regional distribution also ensures that transport costs for delivery are kept to a minimum.

Renting is becoming increasingly popular

Sofie Ameloot - alongside sister Isabelle and brother Pascal one of the three company managers: "We have always worked very hard, alongside some other sectors, to expand a modern fleet for the garden contractor. Think of aerial work platforms, tree pruners, mini excavators, earth moving machines and just about all related equipment. And that ensures that, especially in recent years, we have seen a hefty influx from the green sector. We notice that the "established" garden contractor, who usually likes to purchase small and large equipment himself, is increasingly finding his way to the equipment rental market. And also those who are just peeping in the window and first want to test whether this sector is for them, are smoothly finding their way to one of our rental branches."

Betting on the Pro-Pass

"To further stimulate the rental market, we are pushing hard for the fall on our Pro-Pass, new style," continues Sofie Ameloot. "We are doing this through a lot of communication, including a radio spot that will soon be heard on national radio stations. This way, among other things, we catch the autumn peak of the green sector nicely. Because as a self-employed entrepreneur or professional you often need machines. Without immediately wanting to make an expensive purchase. The benefits of a Pro-Pass are not nothing. With a Pro-Pass you get a fixed discount of 10% on the rental catalog and regular updates on promotions and new articles in your mailbox!"

Perfect at the trade show

"We will also be at Green on September 25, 26 and 27, at Flanders Expo in Ghent. That is pretty much the trade fair for the private and public green sector, so we fit in perfectly there. Of course all our existing and new customers are welcome at our stand, where we will welcome everyone with a drink and a snack. We will also present our new electric articulated loader. We strongly believe that electric machines are the future. Especially in the field of earth moving there is still a big challenge. We chose the Giant G2200 E as an extension of our range."

"With this machine you combine the best of both worlds: all the advantages of an articulated loader, but with quiet operation, with no emissions. This articulated loader is the ideal machine for working inside buildings, in stables or on construction sites in urban environments. The electric articulated loader is equipped with fold-down roof and a 390 Ah lithium IOC battery. That battery can easily handle an eight-hour workday. The battery also provides enough working hydraulics so you can do all the work precisely. Did you know that this machine effortlessly lifts a 1,000 kg pallet off the ground? The machine has exceptional power, operates silently and is extremely maneuverable."
