What RPM Equipment does

RPM Equipment Sales & Rentals is a Florida-founded, founder-owned authorized dealer of heavy construction and material-processing equipment operating across the southeastern United States. The company sells, rents, parts-services, finances, and transports crushing, screening, shredding, grinding, washing, conveying, and forestry equipment sourced from a portfolio of premium OEMs including McCloskey International (exclusive Florida dealer since 2015), Arjes, Komplet America, Eggersmann, Böhringer, CDE, Masaba, and others. Equipment ticket sizes range from approximately $43,000 for attachments to over $500,000 for complete crushing systems.

The business operates through seven physical locations across six states (Florida, Texas, Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana) supported by 28 certified technicians providing 24/7 field service, a 300-unit rental fleet, and a 30,000-SKU parts inventory. Ancillary revenue streams include heavy-haul transportation in Florida and equipment-financing facilitation through four third-party lenders (Northland Capital, Wells Fargo Equipment Finance, DLL, SLR). Customers span construction contractors, aggregate producers, recycling companies, and environmental/forestry operators; the only disclosed named enterprise account is Cemex.

The company is privately held by founder Paul McCaughey, who established the business in Lakeland, Florida in 2015 (originally as RPM Crushers & Screens). Leadership includes Aisling Bumgardner (General Manager since 2017) and Keith Kimmerle (Vice President of Sales, joined 2025, 30 years of OEM experience including Powerscreen and John Deere). Sister-company referral relationships with US Equipment Sales (Midwest) and Bradley Equipment (Texas) extend geographic reach without capital deployment.
