Marine Equipment & Barge Rentals
When the job moves onto the water, rent the reliable equipment that does it better.
Sectional Barges
MBI operates a fleet of sectional barges used to support marine construction and waterfront projects. These barges provide stable platforms for equipment, materials, and crews when work needs to be performed directly on water.
Crane Support
Many marine construction projects require lifting equipment positioned over the water. Our barges can support crane operations used for installing bulkheads, seawalls, marine piling, and other heavy structural components.
Marine Equipment Rentals
In addition to barges, we provide marine construction equipment rentals used for waterfront and shoreline projects. Contractors rely on this equipment to support bulkhead work, pier construction, and other marine infrastructure installations.
Material & Equipment Transport
Our barge fleet is regularly used to transport heavy equipment, construction materials, and crews across waterfront job sites where traditional land access is limited.
Waterfront Construction Support
Marine equipment and barge access often make the difference on complex shoreline projects. Our equipment helps contractors maintain access and stage materials when work need to happen along the water.
Marine Equipment
the MBI Way
The barges and marine equipment we rent out are the same ones we use on our own jobs. They’re maintained because we depend on them, and they work because our crews actually use them every day. A lot of rental operations just store equipment and hope it starts when you need it. We’re renting you the gear we trust on commercial waterfront projects, because if it breaks down on your job, that’s our reputation taking the hit.
45 Years of Staying Power
Forty-five years is a long time in this industry. We’ve been doing this since 1981 because we handle the operational details that sink everyone else. Our equipment works when we show up because we actually maintain it. Our crews know what they’re doing because they’ve been running these jobs for decades, not months. We don’t wait around for materials because we order them before we need them. It’s not complicated, we just don’t operate like amateurs.

Frequently
Asked Questions
How does MBI maintain its marine equipment and barges?
Because our equipment is regularly used on active marine construction projects, it’s maintained and inspected to stay ready for jobsite conditions rather than sitting idle for long periods of time.
Does MBI help coordinate marine logistics on a project?
Yes. On many waterfront jobs, barge positioning, equipment access, and material transport all need to be coordinated. Our team has experience working alongside contractors to help keep those operations organized.
What kinds of contractors typically use MBI’s marine equipment and barge rentals?
Marine equipment and construction barge rentals are commonly used by contractors performing bulkhead work, pier construction, shoreline stabilization, bridge maintenance, and other waterfront infrastructure projects.
Can MBI support projects that require both marine construction and equipment access?
Yes. Because MBI performs marine construction, piling, and waterfront infrastructure work, our equipment and barges are often used to support multiple phases of a project.
How do contractors typically schedule barge rentals for a waterfront project?
Barge rentals are usually scheduled around the construction timeline so materials, equipment, and crane operations can be positioned when they’re needed on site.
