Concrete Pump Rental
A concrete pump rental moves concrete from the truck to where you need it, and a concrete truck delivers and mixes it. Most pumps and trucks come with an operator or driver, so plan your volume and access first. We are still adding suppliers, so send a request with your details.
What concrete pumps and trucks are used for
Pumps place concrete for slabs, footings, walls and upper floors when a truck can't reach the pour. Concrete trucks, also called cement or ready-mix trucks, mix and deliver concrete, usually from a ready-mix plant. For smaller pours you mix yourself, see the concrete mixer rental guide.
Types
| Type | Best for |
|---|---|
| Boom pump truck | Large slabs, walls and upper floors |
| Line pump | Smaller pours, footings and backyards |
| Ready-mix truck delivery | Most residential and commercial pours |
| Volumetric mixer truck | Mixing on site in exact amounts |
| Towable mixer | Small batches you mix yourself |
How to choose
- Work out the volume. Your concrete supplier can help you estimate yards.
- Measure the distance. Hose or boom reach must cover the pour from where the pump can park.
- Check access. Pumps and trucks need firm ground and room for outriggers.
- Book the concrete and pump together. Timing is everything on pour day.
- Ask about the operator. Most pumps and trucks come with one.
How a pumped pour works
- Confirm the mix, volume and pour time with your concrete supplier.
- Book the pump for the same time and share access details.
- Prepare forms, reinforcement and a washout area.
- Keep enough crew to place and finish the concrete.
- Coordinate truck arrivals so the pump doesn't run dry.
- Clean up and contain washout water.
Mistakes to avoid
- Underestimating volume. Running short mid-pour causes problems.
- Ignoring access. Soft ground and overhead lines can stop a pump.
- Booking the pump and concrete separately without coordinating.
- Skipping washout planning. Washout water can't go into drains.
- Too few finishers. Concrete won't wait.
Tips before you request
- Have your address, pour date, volume and distance from the street ready.
- Ask about minimum charges and travel time.
- Ask who handles traffic or street permits.
