For the Equipment Rental Dealer
Winning and keeping customers is critical to your rental success. Since 1973 equipment rental operators have used ready-mixed concrete to bring in new business and to retain a competitive edge. Adding Cart-Away concrete to your rental location is a solid solution that has proven successful in hundreds of communities in North America.
There are three reasons this has worked so well in Rental:
- High Profit Margin = Quick Return on your Investment
- Customers come in for Concrete and then Rent everything else from you.
- Self-delivery concrete fits perfectly with your rental business process.
Why Use Cart-Away Equipment?
We can provide you with a very long list of other rental operators who can testify of these three reasons to add concrete to your rental business. Our team will support your up-front preparations, start-up plans and the eventual success of your ready-mix profit center.
There are four reasons to have Cart-Away as your partner in this process:
- Cart-Away team members have been doing this since the 80’s and have actually worked at locations like yours – We are not the “Used-Car Salesman” you will find with other providers.
- Cart-Away equipment is well designed and built to last in rental applications – We invented the “tilt-to-dump” rental mixing trailer in 1993 and thousands are rented-out every day.
- Cart-Away has the marketing expertise to assist you in selling more concrete – We invest and use the same demographic data source as the Big Box stores to assist in your planning.
- Cart-Away’s fully stocked parts department and experienced based trouble shooting insures that you not lose a single sale – 24/7 support is critical to concrete success.

In areas where the population is dense and close to your concrete operation, or where there are many U-cart ready-mix plants located, the ST-125s are sufficient. However, you will get more outlying business with mixing trailers whether or not you are batching wet concrete or mixing dry materials.
Mixing Trailers continually mix the concrete like a ready-mixed truck does as it is being towed down the road. When you get to the job site, the concrete has not settled and is fully mixed. These trailers can be towed many miles from the place where they receive the concrete. The mixing trailers are also completely hydraulically driven. Meaning that they mix, discharge, and tilt with levers rather than hand pumps.
Yes, the U-cart systems that use an auger are still available from Cart-Away. We build the best quality wet auger system in our industry. We will be happy to quote you on either system. The wet auger blender can be optioned to load the 1-yard concrete mixing trailers as well.
No, the tub trailer that started the U-cart business model requires the ready-mix to be loaded wet. The mixing trailers were specifically designed to mix aggregate, cement, and water in the drum and can be loaded from a dry belt loader.
No, the controls on a dry belt loader and the controls on a wet auger system are virtually the same. The dry belt loader also uses the same 200-barrel silo. The footprint of the machinery is the same as the wet systems. The only difference is that the material is loaded into the trailers dry rather than wet. And you can make more money with mixing trailers.
The pivot is available so that you can stage many trailers in place and load them consecutively in line. The older U-cart auger system did not pivot for staging multiples of trailers.
There are many reasons supporting the need for this type of system. Number one is that they require less maintenance than a wet system. The fact that the material is not mixed on the machine itself tells us that the abrasive wear on augers, shoes, bearings, and shafts no longer is a problem. The wash down after every load is no longer needed because 100% of the material is in the trailer. The operator can simply set the calibrated time and walk away. The belt will stop when the appropriate amount of material is delivered, and the valve will shut down the water at the prescribed time. Because the belt is empty there is no wash down required.
Cart-Away Concrete questions each of its suppliers on the origin of the raw materials and the labor that they used for every part that goes into a Cart-Away Concrete product.
“All or virtually all” means that the significant parts and processes that go into a Cart-Away product are from U.S. materials and labor.
