The increasing focus of government authorities in the U.S. and Canada on forming regulatory bodies to track and regulate norms on vehicular emissions will generate lucrative growth opportunities for the construction equipment rental market in the region. Rental companies are increasingly focusing on enhancing their fleet with low-emission excavators, loaders, and other equipment required for earthmoving, roadbuilding, and paving. This will augment the construction equipment rental market size.

The outbreak of COVID-19 has impacted the North America construction equipment rental market as countries in the region faced massive economic disruption during the first two quarters of 2019. The pandemic has also adversely impacted the manufacturing sector and international trade. The manufacturing units have witnessed a sluggish growth owing to a steady decline in the availability of raw materials and skilled labors. The unprecedented times have resulted in employee and workforce layoffs due to cash crunch and financial instability. Disruption in the supply chain and demand losses have decreased the product demand. However, the market is expected to grow significantly with gradual economic revival and containment of the spread of the virus by 2021.

On the basis of product, the North America construction equipment rental market is segregated into material handling & cranes, concrete equipment, and earthmoving & road building equipment. The material handling & cranes segment will witness a significant growth during the forecast timeline. This segment is further categorized into storage & handling equipment, industrial trucks, engineered systems, and bulk material handling equipment. The industrial truck segment will propel owing to its ability to mitigate human efforts and enhance productivity. This will augment the industry size of the construction equipment rental market.
