When planning a construction project or special event, securing your site becomes a top priority. The question many face is whether to rent or purchase temporary fencing. At Mobile Fencing Inc., we’ve helped thousands of clients across New England make this decision over the years, and the answer is clear: renting temporary fencing offers significant advantages over buying.
Based in Providence, Rhode Island, and serving Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, and Maine, Mobile Fencing Inc. provides comprehensive temporary fence rental solutions including chain link, block & panel, and pedestrian barrier options. Our full-service approach includes delivery, setup, and removal, making the entire process seamless for our clients.
Let’s explore the five compelling reasons why renting temporary fencing makes more sense than purchasing for most projects.
Lower Upfront Costs and No Storage Headaches
Purchasing temporary fencing requires a substantial initial investment. Construction fence panels, posts, and hardware can cost thousands of dollars, especially for larger projects. When you rent from Mobile Fencing Inc., you eliminate these upfront costs entirely.
Beyond the purchase price, buying creates hidden expenses. You need secure storage space for panels when not in use, which often means paying for warehouse space or dealing with on-site storage challenges. Weather exposure can damage stored fencing, leading to replacement costs. With our rental service, these concerns disappear completely—we handle all storage and maintenance.
Ultimate Flexibility for Changing Project Needs
Construction timelines shift. Event requirements evolve. When you own temporary fencing, you’re stuck with what you bought, regardless of changing needs. Our temporary fence rental service adapts to your project’s reality.
Mobile Fencing Inc. operates 10 crews handling up to 1,200 different projects annually, giving us the expertise to adjust quickly. Need to relocate fencing as your construction site progresses? We’ve worked with clients to move barriers throughout entire project durations. Require different panel heights or styles for various zones? Our extensive inventory of over 250 miles of fencing provides options that purchasing rarely offers.
Event fencing presents particular challenges. Crowd sizes fluctuate, vendor areas change, and weather conditions demand quick adjustments. Rental flexibility ensures your event fencing adapts rather than constrains your planning.
Enhanced Security with Reduced Liability
Professional installation makes a critical difference in temporary fencing effectiveness. When you rent from Mobile Fencing Inc., you receive professional installation that maximizes security and minimizes liability risks.
Our construction fence solutions secure materials and equipment while reducing insurance costs. Properly installed temporary fencing keeps unauthorized personnel away from dangerous areas, protecting both workers and the public. For events, our barriers control crowd flow and define secure zones for backstage areas, camping grounds, and vendor spaces.
The liability benefits extend beyond physical security. Professional installation ensures compliance with local regulations and safety standards. When issues arise, you have experienced professionals to call rather than handling problems alone.
Environmentally Responsible Choice
Sustainability matters more than ever, and renting temporary fencing supports environmental responsibility. Our fencing panels serve multiple projects throughout their lifespan, maximizing resource efficiency. Rather than manufacturing new panels for single-use purchases, rental systems promote reuse and reduce waste.
Mobile Fencing Inc.’s chain link fence rental exemplifies this sustainability. Our durable steel panels serve numerous projects without requiring disposal after single use. When panels eventually reach end-of-life, we handle proper recycling rather than leaving disposal decisions to individual customers.
This earth-friendly approach aligns with modern construction and event management sustainability goals while reducing your project’s environmental footprint.
Perfect Match for Every Project Type
Different projects demand different fencing solutions, and rental provides access to specialized options without major investments. Mobile Fencing Inc. offers three distinct temporary fencing types, each optimized for specific applications.
Pedestrian barriers excel at crowd control for retail environments, directing queues and creating restricted access zones. Our bike rack barricades customize easily to any job site configuration.
Block and panel fencing provides enhanced security for construction sites and events requiring taller barriers. These systems prevent unauthorized access while maintaining professional appearance.
Chain link fence rental offers cost-effective perimeter security with excellent visibility. Perfect for construction sites requiring security signage display, these panels also work well for events needing transparent barriers.
Purchasing would require investing in multiple fencing types to handle diverse project needs. Rental lets you select the optimal solution for each specific situation.
Benefits of Renting vs. Buying Temporary Fencing
The advantages of renting temporary fencing over buying are clear: lower costs, superior flexibility, enhanced security, environmental responsibility, and access to specialized solutions. Mobile Fencing Inc. delivers these benefits through professional service backed by extensive experience across construction, events, retail, and emergency applications.
Our family-owned business takes customer service seriously, with locations in Providence, Rhode Island, and Hooksett, New Hampshire, ready to field questions and dispatch crews as needed.
