FAQ

What work fits NAICS 532310?
  • Short-term rental and delivery of compact earthmoving equipment, compactors, and skid-steer loaders on hourly or daily rates without providing operators.
  • Rental of audio-visual, staging, and event equipment including tents, chairs, tables, and staging platforms for federal events with delivery and setup coordination.
  • Provide portable generators, temporary HVAC units, and lighting towers for short-term use with required safety inspections and fuel arrangement options.
  • Rent hand and power tools with inventory tracking, condition reports at checkout and return, and optional damage waiver billing.
When is NAICS 532310 a weak fit?
  • Rental with operator included: missing the standalone equipment rental transaction because providing operators transforms the procurement into staffed services.
  • Long-term capital lease or equipment purchase: missing short-term, time-limited rental terms and frequent turnover of inventory.
  • Equipment maintenance and repair shops: missing the rental transaction and billing by time period when the primary activity is repair or refurbishment.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 532310?
  • Line items listing daily or hourly rental rates, delivery and pickup fees, and required condition reports at pickup and return.
  • Requirements for preventive maintenance records, safety inspection certificates between rentals, and documented sanitation or fuel-check procedures.
  • Evaluation factors requesting fleet availability within the required delivery window, lead-time for delivery to specified sites, and on-hand inventory counts.
