RMS Rentals showcased its new location with a customer appreciation open house March 15 in Savage, Minn. The new store, which moved approximately a half-mile from its previous location at Road Machinery & Supplies corporate headquarters in Savage, Minn., features 10 times more space than RMS Rentals had previously.

“We went from 5,000 to 50,000 square feet,” said RMS Rentals General Manager Mark Rossi. “It’s allowed us to expand our inventory and improve our rental readiness. Customers will be better able to see our full breadth of product offerings and our ability to service machinery faster so that we can get it to them even quicker.”

The new facility features three full-service bays for working on equipment, as well as a steam bay and additional warehouse space. A larger showroom and bigger lot give RMS Rentals plenty of space to show customers the extensive lineup of equipment the company carries.

Several of those equipment manufacturers — Komatsu, Lull, SkyTrak, LeeBoy, Wacker, Potain, Cerda and Stihl — helped sponsor the open house, which gave customers a chance to view equipment. Attendees also could share a meal, win prizes and compete in contests such as skid steer basketball shooting and using a compact excavator to move golf balls from a sand-filled mini swimming pool to a bucket while being timed.
