Call 811 before the chain hits dirt. Marked gas, water, and fiber are not suggestions.
Tell us depth, width (usually 4–6" for drip, 6–12" for pipe), dirt or pavement, and whether you need a trailer. Fuel is extra. Day / week / month — month wins if you are on it more than a few days.
Short backyard run: walk-behind. Hundreds of feet or 3–4 ft deep: ride-on. If you cannot get a 5–6 ft wide machine through the gate, you are on a walk-behind whether you like it or not.
Most irrigation is 12–18". Service laterals often 24–36". Sewer and some electric go deeper — that is a ride-on or a mini-ex, not a 13" toy. Width follows the pipe plus slop. Say the pipe size.
Yes. Always. We will not pretend otherwise. Hit a marked line and the rental is the cheap part.
A dirt chain will crawl or throw teeth. That is a rock wheel or a different tool. Tell us the soil before we load the truck.
Tracks and a narrow walk-behind, yes, if you go slow. Wheels on wet sod leave ruts. Offset boom helps along a wall. We do not guarantee zero yard damage.
A day is fine for one lateral. A week of weather delays costs more than the monthly. Ask for all three numbers.
Ride-ons usually need a trailer and a truck that can tow the weight. Walk-behinds often go on a ball hitch if we send a trailer. Confirm GVWR. Fuel is not in the rate.
City, depth, length, dirt or pavement, walk-behind vs ride-on, trailer yes/no, start date. Photos of the gate and the soil save a wrong machine.
we understand that Managing Construction Projects and Properties can be a daunting task.

Bare rental unless you booked an operator. First-timers stall the chain, bury the boom, and pay for teeth. Ten minutes of walkthrough at pickup is not training.
Wear from dirt is expected. A wrapped chain on rebar, concrete, or a unmarked slab is on the renter. Same as a broken chain on a mini-trencher yard sheet.
Straight, narrow, long: trencher. Bends, pits, rocks, tree roots: mini-ex. Many jobs use both.
You rent when the machine would sit. Day, week, or month. Fuel, trailer, and teeth wear are separate. Buying only pays if you trench every week. Here's why:
Cost-effectiveness: Renting saves you money in the long run. Buying a trencher can be expensive especially if you only need it for one project.
Flexibility and convenience: Renting gives you the freedom to choose from various types and sizes of trenchers that suit your specific needs. Whether it's a small residential job or a large commercial endeavor, rental companies have got you covered.
No maintenance or storage worries: When you rent from JMJ, all maintenance and storage concerns are taken care of by them. Say goodbye to servicing, repairs, and finding space to store heavy machinery safely.
A trencher is a robust digger designed to carve narrow channels in any type of soil. With its rotating chain and cutting teeth. It effortlessly digs into the ground making it perfect for installing utilities, irrigation systems, or drainage pipes. Types: But wait! There's more than one type of trencher out there. You've got walk-behind trenchers for smaller projects that need maneuverability. Ride-on trenchers for those larger scale jobs with deeper depths and challenging terrains and mini excavator mounted trenchers that turn your machine into an unstoppable digging force. Trenching plays a vital role in both construction and landscaping by ensuring proper installation processes. In construction trenches safely house underground utilities without disrupting existing structures above ground. Landscaping: When it comes to landscaping trenches are key for effective drainage solutions and efficient water distribution in irrigation systems. Keeping lawns and gardens thriving! Using trenches effectively on your projects you'll save time while achieving precise professional results. Safety should always be top priority though! Call 811. Wear eye and foot protection. Do not trench the edge of a bank. If you have not run a chain trencher, say so when you book — we will not treat a walkthrough as training.
Be Cautious Near Edges: Exercise caution near ditches or embankments as they can pose tipping risks. Stay a safe distance from edges for your own safety. Wear Safety Gear Always wear gloves, safety glasses, and sturdy footwear to protect yourself from flying debris or accidental contact with moving parts. Follow Safe Digging Practices: Maintain a steady pace when digging trenches. Avoid sudden movements that may cause accidents. Keep bystanders at a safe distance. Regularly Inspect & Clean The Trencher: After each use inspect it for signs of damage/wear. Clean off dirt/debris accumulated during operation. This keeps it in good working condition. Remember, proper training and experience are essential when operating heavy machinery like trenchers. If unsure seek professional assistance before starting your project.
