I dunno where you live but in my state I at least need to apply for a temporary hoisting license before I can get anything with an arm or other mechanism capable of lifting over 500lbs
Also need to have a way to haul it to the site yourself; most places don’t deliver (but perhaps this isn’t true for mobile equipment like tractors; I’ve only ever rented specialized lawn equipment)
Here in California, the companies deliver. With special weekend rates for DIYers, Sunday’s free, since it’s technically illegal to make construction noises then. First time I ran an excavator, I was 8yo.

Goodness, that’s terrible.
