Renting a Bobcat MT100 w/ a Trencher Beats a Traditional Trencher

When it comes to digging trenches for utilities, irrigation, or drainage, many contractors and property owners automatically think of a dedicated trencher. But there’s a smarter, more versatile option — renting a Bobcat MT100 mini track loader with a trencher attachment from RINO Rents. Here’s why more professionals in Indianapolis and Carmel are making the switch.

1. More Power and Traction

The MT100 delivers over 1,000 lbs of rated operating capacity and exceptional hydraulic power. Combined with its low ground pressure and rubber tracks, it can dig efficiently through clay, rocky soil, and wet ground where walk-behind trenchers often struggle or get stuck. You’ll spend less time fighting the terrain and more time getting the job done.

2. One Machine, Multiple Jobs

A traditional trencher does one thing: dig trenches. The MT100, on the other hand, can swap attachments in seconds, from trencher to bucket, auger, pallet forks, or soil conditioner. That means after trenching, you can backfill, grade, and clean up without renting another piece of equipment.

It’s a true multi-tool for your jobsite, maximizing your rental dollars and minimizing downtime.

3. Better Operator Comfort and Safety

Anyone who’s used a walk-behind trencher knows the vibration and strain it can put on your body. The MT100 lets you ride or walk behind comfortably, with intuitive joystick controls and a smooth hydraulic response. Less fatigue means better precision and a safer workday.

4. Compact Size, Big Capability

The MT100 is only 44 inches wide with narrow tracks, so it fits through gates and tight spaces just like a dedicated trencher — but with far more capability. You can trench right up to buildings, fences, or landscaping features without tearing up the yard.

5. Lower Overall Cost

Instead of renting a trencher for one job and a loader for cleanup, you get two machines in one. That’s less time coordinating pickups, less fuel, and fewer delivery charges. RINO Rents offers daily, weekly, and weekend specials, so you can trench, grade, and haul... all on one affordable rental.

6. Local Service and Support

At RINO Rents, you’re not dealing with a national chain. You’re working with a local, high-school-founded business that takes pride in customer service and machine quality. Every MT100 is serviced, fueled, and ready to work... and if you need help, our local team is just a call away.

Final Takeaway

Renting a Bobcat MT100 with a trencher attachment isn’t just about digging, it’s about working smarter. You’ll get more done, spend less, and have a machine that’s ready for whatever your project throws at it.
