Local Equipment Rental
Bronson, Jonesville & Vicksburg
Our Waterloo, IN yard on US-6 is about 51 miles from Bronson and 52 miles from Jonesville, and our Wakarusa, IN yard on IN-19 is about 52 miles from Vicksburg. Between the two, Wakarusa Heavy Equipment is one of the closest full-service rental and sales companies for this part of Southern Michigan. We rent skid steers, excavators, wheel loaders, rollers, and haul trucks from a growing fleet of machines, all backed by our own in-house service department.
We're a family-owned and operated business, so you deal directly with people who know the equipment and the job sites, from picking the right machine to keeping it running for the length of your rental. We also service machines you didn't rent or buy from us, and as a Takeuchi dealer we carry genuine Takeuchi parts.

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."
