Chicago Contractors: The $4.7B Bears Stadium Will Be One of the Most Expensive Builds in the Midwest. Watch Your Rental Costs

The Chicago Bears are planning a $4.7 billion enclosed stadium complex in Arlington Heights, one of the most expensive stadium projects ever. When construction ramps up, it will consume massive amounts of rental equipment across Chicagoland. TrueRent shows Chicago-area contractors where their rental vendors are charging above market.

Chicago already has one of the most competitive and expensive construction markets in the country. A $4.7B stadium project will strain equipment availability for years. Tower cranes, heavy crawlers, and aerial lifts will be in extreme demand. TrueRent helps you track whether your rate increases are market-driven or vendor overcharges.
