US-based equipment rental company H&E Rentals has opened a new branch in Springfield, Missouri.

The opening of the branch, which comes weeks after the company opened its first location in Iowa, marks its fourth location in the state. 

It comes equipped with a fully fenced yard area, offices, and a repair shop. It specialises in a variety of construction and general industrial equipment.

Among the inventory at the new site is aerial lifts, earthmoving equipment, telescopic forklifts, compaction equipment, generators and light towers.

Branch manager Ryan Draffen said, “This new location in the Show-Me State – along with our existing Kansas City and Columbia facilities and our Tulsa, Oklahoma, branch – increases our available fleet inventory across western Missouri.

“We can now more efficiently serve customers along the Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Kansas state lines over to Rolla and Highway 63 in central Missouri, as well as all points in between.

“We’re located just south of where I-44 meets Highway 65, giving us quick access to major thoroughfares to move equipment to customer job sites. We look forward to establishing new relationships and demonstrating our higher standard of service.”

H&E operates in 32 states and has opened 24 new branches across the US, and acquired nine others since the second quarter of 2023.
