Wheel loaders are not listed for rent in Nashville yet, as owners across Middle Tennessee have not begun using the site. A contractor can post a request describing the material to be moved, and an owner can list a loader for free while the launch lasts. The national wheel loader rental page shows more places.
Quarries and aggregate yards around the metro area use wheel loaders every day to feed crushers and load trucks with limestone. On development sites the machine stockpiles topsoil, loads shot rock and clears debris. Recycling yards, ready-mix plants and landscape suppliers all move bulk material, and the I-24 and I-40 corridors host many such operations.
Shot limestone punishes tires, so ask for a loader with rock-rated tires or chains, and check the condition when it arrives. Wet clay and mud sticks to tires and slows work, and spring rain can close a yard for days. Dry summers raise dust, which clogs air filters, so operators clean them often.
Agree the rate for a day, week or month with an hours allowance. Determine who supplies fuel and the operator, and how tire damage is handled, since the cost of a tire can be a significant sum. Ask for a pre-rental walk-around with photos.
For purchase options see wheel loaders for sale in Nashville. More equipment is on the Nashville rental hub.
A wheel loader has blind spots, so yards need clear traffic lanes, spotters where people work nearby and a backup alarm that sounds. Keep the bucket low while traveling, and never carry people. Ask the owner for a walk-through of controls before you start, especially if your operator knows a different brand.

Put the answer in the rental agreement. Many owners treat tire damage separately from normal wear.
