What you get
First Responder Transport rents a Miller Bobcat welding rig on a trailer for $400 a day, delivered to your site and collected when you are done. You supply the welder. We supply the machine, the trailer, the oxygen and gas bottles, and the delivery.
The Bobcat is engine driven, with a 10,000-watt generator built in, so it makes its own power. It does not need anything to plug into on site, which is the point of it on a lot of jobs. The oxygen and gas bottles come on the trailer with it.
What it suits
Jobs where hiring a welder for a week costs more than the work is worth, and jobs where there is no power.
- Fence and gate repair
- Trailer and equipment fabrication
- Site repairs where there is nothing to plug into
Longer hires
The rate is $400 a day. If you need the rig for more than a few days, say so when you ask and we will price the whole run rather than the day.
What to tell us
- Where the site is, or at least the town.
- How many days you need it, and when it needs to arrive.
- Where the trailer will sit, and whether a truck can get to that spot.
- What you are welding, so there are no surprises on the day.
Text it to (813) 422-0008 and you will get an answer back, usually inside the hour.
Where we deliver
Anywhere across Hillsborough, Polk and Manatee counties, plus Lake and Orange. Delivery runs seven days a week.
