A Full-Service Rental Yard 20 Minutes From Goshen
Wakarusa Heavy Equipment is 11 miles west of Goshen on the far side of Elkhart County, close enough that most Goshen customers pick up at the yard and are on the job before mid-morning. We rent compact track loaders, skid steers, mini and full-size excavators, dozers, wheel loaders, rollers, telehandlers, boom and scissor lifts, and articulated haul trucks, all maintained in our own shop by the technicians who service the machines we sell.
We are family-owned, which in practice means the person who answers the phone can tell you whether the 2,500 lb track loader or the 4,100 lb one is right for your job, and can have it loaded on a trailer or on our truck headed to Goshen the same day. If you would rather not haul, delivery to Goshen is quick and usually the better deal on anything heavier than a mini excavator.
Built for Goshen Work
From Industrial Parks to Pole Barns
Goshen is a working town. The manufacturing corridor on the north and east sides, the RV component and cabinet plants, the trailer builders and the industrial parks out toward US-33 all need forklifts, telehandlers, compact track loaders and sweepers for yard maintenance, loading and lot cleanup, and we keep those machines stocked for exactly that. When a plant's own machine goes down, we can usually have a replacement on site the same day.
Outside the city limits the work changes. Elkhart County's farm country and Amish communities keep us busy with pole barn pads, driveway stone, fence lines, drainage tile and ditch work on heavy clay, and the lake and river properties along the Elkhart River and Goshen Dam Pond need seawall, grading and tree work. Closer to downtown, the Millrace and the older neighborhoods mean sewer laterals, demolition cleanup and tight-access mini excavator jobs. Homeowners rent from us for all of it, and we walk you through the controls at pickup if it is your first time on a machine.

Customer Testimonials
"I usually work on my own equipment. My Takeuchi Skid Steer had a few issues that had compiled, and eventually it developed a no crank no start issue. Me and my buddies spent days trying to figure it out. I finally dropped it off to Wakarusa, and they figured it out way quicker than I expected, way more things than I even realized were bad, and for an incredibly reasonable rate. These guys are quick and I will certainly be back! I may even take stuff to them before I try to fix it myself next time."
