About Us
At NDK Scrapers and NDK Rental, we keep the dirt world turning — whether that means selling brand-new machines, used equipment that's been rebuilt right, or putting our own iron to work on high-volume excavation jobs. We know what works because we’ve done it both ways: in front of the blade and under the hood. From buying and rebuilding to hauling and hitting grade, our business was built on one thing — making dirt fly and dollars count.
Our two divisions — NDK Scrapers (Resale) and NDK Rental (Dirt Assistance) — were built to serve one purpose: give the industry a better way to move earth. And we’ve carved out a name by doing one thing better than most: moving massive amounts of earth with zero nonsense.
Whether you’re buying or renting, we’re here to move it fast — with equipment that looks sharp and earns its keep.
The Backstory (Short and Dirty)
In 2003, Nick Kostecki started with a single tractor/scraper complete unit and a work ethic that would make a mule tired. No fancy office, no marketing team — just good iron and a phone that kept ringing. That turned into NDK Scrapers in 2005 — a resale outfit built on results and reputation, selling high-performance scrapers and tractors to folks who’d rather run a throttle than a meeting.
In 2006, the projects kept getting bigger, the demand kept growing, and we knew we needed more. That’s when NDK Rental was launched — the dirt-assistance side of NDK, built to rent out complete tractor/scraper units to contractors who wanted production, not excuses. Fast forward to today: we’re running 100+ units nationwide, backing up the same no-BS reputation we started with — and we still don’t believe in overcomplicating things.
NDK Scrapers – Resale & Reconditioning
We sell what we’d use — period. Every piece of equipment that leaves our yard has been through it — job-tested, operator-approved, and often completely reconditioned in-house. We take older machines, strip them down, rebuild them right, and bring them back looking brand new — without the brand-new price tag.
We specialize in K-Tec 1228 scrapers and CAT Challenger tractors, but we deal in all types of heavy earthmoving equipment. Whether you're expanding your fleet or replacing something that’s slowing you down, we’ll match you with machines that work as hard as you do.
We’ve been working with K-Tec Earthmovers for over two decades. That partnership — plus our field experience — gives you equipment that isn’t just shiny, it’s proven. When it comes to performance in the field, our iron doesn’t just show up — it delivers.
NDK Rental – Dirt Assistance Division
NDK Rental is the dirt-moving assistance division of NDK — your go-to resource for fully operated scraper rentals on high-volume job sites. We provide complete tractor-scraper units with experienced union operators, designed to handle major cut/fill, rough grade, and overlot work with speed and consistency.
We specialize in large-scale site development — the kind of projects where 8 to 35 units run daily, not just a couple machines here and there. Over the years, we’ve supported some of the most recognized infrastructure and industrial builds across the country, including tech campuses, electric vehicle facilities, e-commerce distribution hubs, solar farms, interstate highway expansions, and large-scale warehouse developments. If you’ve seen a major ground break in the Midwest or Southeast in the last decade, odds are we had iron on it. Our reputation has been built on production, precision, and performance — the kind of track record that brings us back to the big jobs again and again.
Each of our units is paired with a highly skilled IUOE operator, making us a plug-and-play solution for contractors who want clean dirt movement without the headaches of training, scheduling, or downtime. We show up ready to run.
We operate in the background — no billboards, no flashy branding. Our equipment doesn’t carry logos, so when we're on your site, we blend in as an extension of your crew. You won’t find “NDK Rental” plastered across our tractors — we ride incognito to match your brand, not compete with it.
One Operation. Two Ways to Move Earth.
Whether you’re buying rebuilt equipment or renting complete units, you’re getting decades of dirt-under-the-fingernails experience and equipment that knows how to earn its keep. From day one to final grade, NDK Scrapers and NDK Rental are here to keep your job moving and your timeline intact — without the corporate nonsense.
At the end of the day, this business is about moving dirt. If you want partners who show up, actually know what they’re doing, and don’t need a meeting to figure it out — we’ve built that for you.
We move dirt like we mean it — no babysitting, no standing around, and no paperwork. The only thing we wait on is the fuel truck. If you're into clean equipment, hard results, and people who get to the point — you're in the right place.
