Our Story

Founded in 2015 by Kevin Forestell, Erin Stephenson and Tim Forestell, DOZR is facilitating the short and long-term rental of heavy equipment across North America. The DOZR platform enables business owners to earn additional revenue from their idle equipment and allows contractors to rent equipment at lower rates than traditional rental companies.

DOZR is a trusted marketplace for the online rental of heavy equipment. Named by TechCrunch as an “Airbnb for bulldozers and excavators,” DOZR is revolutionizing the heavy equipment industry. Whether a daily rental or an entire fleet, DOZR is helping its customers to work smarter, not harder.

DOZR CEO, Kevin Forestell came up with the idea while working as a contractor, operating a successful landscaping business in Ontario, Canada. He noticed that most of his equipment was sitting idle in the winter, and saw an opportunity for heavy equipment to enter the sharing economy. DOZR currently offers a fleet of heavy equipment in a variety of categories including excavators, loaders, skid steers, tractors, vehicles, rock trucks and lifts, to name a few.
