United Rentals, Inc. Company Profile
No cash to buy a bulldozer? No worries -- just lease one from United Rentals. The company is the #1 commercial and construction equipment renter in the world, serving more than a million customers. From an integrated network of about 700 locations in Canada, Mexico, and 48 US states, the company rents thousands of equipment items -- everything from heavy construction and industrial equipment to hand tools, special-event items such as light towers, and trench-safety equipment. It also sells new and used equipment, rental-related and contractor supplies, and parts. Although stung by an abandoned deal to be bought out by Cerberus Capital Management, United Rentals continues to seek future prospects.
