Floor Scrubber Rental and Sweeper Rentals Across the Southeast
Rentals
Southern Sweepers rents ride-on and walk-behind floor scrubbers and sweepers from brands like PowerBoss, FactoryCat, and Kodiak. We offer rentals by the day, week, or month. Every floor scrubber rental includes preventative maintenance, operator training, and a backup machine if yours needs service, with local support from service centers in Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, and Mississippi.
A short-term cleaning job doesn’t have to turn into a big purchase. Maybe you need a ride-on scrubber for two weeks, or you want to see how a sweeper handles your floor before you commit to a purchase. When you rent a floor scrubber or sweeper from us, we make sure you get the right machine for the job, and you can return it once you’re finished.
Need a Floor Scrubber or Sweeper Without Buying One?
There are many reasons customers come to us needing a floor scrubber or sweeper temporarily. It could be that a construction crew left a layer of dust over their brand-new floor, a busy season is coming, an audit is on the calendar, or your own scrubber picked the worst possible week to break down. Some facilities just want to try a machine before they buy one.
Choosing the right industrial floor scrubber or sweeper can greatly improve cleaning efficiency and results. Using the wrong machine, however, can slow your work, damage floors, or leave dirt behind. Our professional sales teams will help guide you based on your facility’s needs.
Buying a machine for a job that lasts a few weeks ties up money you could be spending elsewhere, and if the only machine you own goes down without a backup, your cleaning comes to a halt. Renting takes care of all of these issues, providing you with the proper equipment for the job, no matter the timeframe.
Floor Scrubbers and Sweepers Available to Rent
Our rental fleet covers everything from compact walk-behinds for a retail stockroom to industrial ride-ons built for a sprawling distribution center. Here’s a quick look at what each machine does best:
| Machine Type | Best For | Typical Facility |
|---|---|---|
| Ride-on floor scrubber | Large floors with grease, oil, stains, and spills | Warehouses, manufacturing plants, distribution centers |
| Walk-behind floor scrubber | Tight aisles and smaller floors that need wet cleaning | Retail stores, commercial buildings, job sites |
| Ride-on sweeper | Loose debris across big open floors, indoors or out | Warehouses, plants, loading docks |
| Walk-behind sweeper | Dry debris in tight or crowded spaces | Small warehouses, shops, back-of-house areas |
| Outdoor sweeper | Dirt, gravel, dust, and oil on pavement | Parking lots, loading docks, yards |
| Floor grinder or scraper | Surface prep and removing old flooring coatings | Renovation, demolition, new construction |
Ride-On Floor Scrubber Rental
A ride-on floor scrubber rental makes sense when you have a large amount of square footage to cover but not a lot of time. These are our heavy hitters for industrial floor scrubber rental and warehouse floor scrubber rental, covering big square footage fast while your operator stays comfortably seated.
PowerBoss ride-ons offer hot water cleaning that cuts through grease and oil buildup, FactoryCat machines handle large facilities and sticky spills, and Kodiak and MinuteMan scrubbers keep it simple with easy operation and minimal downtime.
We also rent used Tennant machines, so if you’re looking for a Tennant floor scrubber rental, we can help.
Walk-Behind Floor Scrubber Rental
Not every job will require a ride-on machine. A walk-behind floor scrubber rental is the better fit for spaces with narrow aisles, crowded sales floors, and a lot of fixtures to work around. That makes it a popular commercial floor scrubber rental for retail stores, schools, and offices. Compact models from Kodiak, used Nobles, MinuteMan, and FactoryCat (including the MiniHD) fit through standard doorways and give your operator precise control in tight corners.
Ride-On and Walk-Behind Sweeper Rental
If your problem involves dust, dirt, and loose debris, we recommend starting with a floor sweeper rental. A ride-on sweeper rental covers large warehouses and plant floors quickly, while a walk-behind sweeper rental handles smaller spaces and tight spots.
PowerBoss and FactoryCat industrial sweeper rentals cover indoor jobs, from warehouse aisles to manufacturing floors. Outdoors, Dulevo’s heavy-duty sweepers pick up dirt, gravel, dust, and oil, so they’re our go-to parking lot sweeper rental for lots, loading docks, and yards.
Floor Grinder and Floor Scraper Rental
If you’re prepping a floor for resurfacing or renovation, floor grinders handle heavy-duty surface prep and concrete restoration by removing coatings, adhesives, and imperfections before polishing or a new coating. They can pull up tile, carpet, epoxy, and glue, saving on labor and protecting the concrete underneath during demolition and renovation.
Industrial floor grinders are built for heavy-duty surface prep and concrete restoration. They remove coatings, adhesives, and imperfections to create a smooth surface ready for polishing or new coatings.
How to Choose the Right Rental Machine
Should I Rent a Floor Sweeper or a Floor Scrubber?
Floor sweepers remove loose dirt, dust, gravel, and other dry debris, and work well indoors and outdoors in spaces like warehouses, parking lots, streets, loading docks, and industrial areas.
Floor scrubbers, on the other hand, go beyond sweeping by using water and cleaning solutions to tackle stains, spills, grease, and grime. For surfaces with sticky residues, industrial fluids, or high-traffic concrete, scrubbers provide a level of cleaning that sweepers alone cannot achieve.
Many facilities use both machines together: a sweeper first to clear loose debris, followed by a scrubber for a polished, spotless finish.
Walk-Behind or Ride-On: Which Size Do I Need?
The right size comes down to how much floor you have and how tight the space is. Walk-behind machines fit narrow aisles, small spaces, doorways, elevators, and storage closets, and they give your operator precise control around fixtures. Ride-on machines need more room to move and store, but they clean big floors a lot faster. They’re also easier on your operator over a long shift, with adjustable seats and controls instead of hours of pushing.
What Kind of Debris Are You Cleaning?
Just about any machine in our fleet can handle light dust, dirt, and sawdust. If you’re dealing with heavy debris, gravel, or leftover construction material, you’ll need an industrial-grade sweeper specifically built to handle large amounts of rubble.
If you’re still not sure, we offer a free site survey where someone from our team will come take a look at your floor, debris, and space, then recommend a machine based on your needs.

Do I need a sweeper and a scrubber, or just one?
