The Cat 953 is a track loader rental for contractors who need pushing power, traction, loading capability,
and material handling in one machine. With a 2.5 CY bucket and an operating weight of 35,000 lbs, the Cat 953 is a strong fit for site development, backfilling, grading support, clearing, truck loading,
stockpiling, utility work, and jobs where tracked stability matters.

This machine is best used when the job needs more traction and pushing ability than a wheel loader, but still requires bucket capacity for loading, carrying, and material movement.

About the Cat 953

The Cat 953 gives contractors a tracked loading machine for jobs where traction, stability, and pushing power are important. It is built to move material, backfill trenches, support grading, clear jobsite debris, load trucks, and work in conditions where wheeled equipment may lose traction or create rutting.

This machine works well on commercial construction sites, utility projects, roadwork support jobs, land clearing, site development, and heavier backfill work. Crews can use it to move dirt, gravel, debris, base material, and spoil while supporting excavation, grading, cleanup, and material staging.

The Cat 953 is useful when the job calls for both loader functionality and crawler-style stability. Its value is in giving contractors one machine that can push, load, carry, and work across changing ground conditions.

  • Moving dirt, gravel, spoil, and base material
  • Commercial site development
  • Utility project support

Why Rent This Track Loader?

Renting the Cat 953 helps contractors solve short-term loading, pushing, grading, and backfilling needs without adding another track loader to the fleet permanently. It is useful when a project needs tracked traction, when owned equipment is already committed, or when a wheel loader may not be the best fit for site conditions.

The Cat 953 can also help prevent mismatched equipment on unstable or uneven jobsites. If a wheeled machine struggles with traction or if a dozer lacks the loading function needed for the work, a track loader can fill the gap. The Cat 953 gives contractors a rental option that combines pushing strength with material handling capability.
