Rental Trenchers 101: Which Trencher Type Does Your Customer Need?
An overview comparison of ride-on vs walk-behind trenchers and selecting which solution will work for your rental customer.
Walk-behind trenchers are more compact and maneuverable, perfect for smaller jobsites with tight spaces or numerous obstacles, such as residential lawns and backyards. Ditch Witch’s CX-series walk-behind trenchers, for example, are easier to transport and operate in confined areas, offering a practical solution for landscapers and contractors working on smaller-scale projects. Both types of trenchers are designed to meet specific needs, ensuring that operators can choose the best equipment for their particular job conditions. Pictured is the C30X.
