Phoenix-based Sunstate Equipment adds trench operations to portfolio
(Metro Creative Connection)
Posted
Special to Independent Newsmedia
Sunstate Equipment Co., LLC announced it has signed an agreement to purchase the assets and ongoing operations of all Trench Shore Rentals and Trebor Shoring Rentals locations in Arizona, California and Texas, with an anticipated close date in early 2024.
Each company brings decades of expertise within the construction rental industry and customer service.
“The combination of two family-founded, Phoenix-based rental industry pioneers is a one-of-a-kind opportunity for both teams,” Chris Watts, Sunstate Equipment president and CEO, shared in a news release.
After entering the trench business in 2018, Sunstate now has 13 dedicated trench locations in the Gulf, Southeast and Northwest.
TSR teams and locations will continue with normal operations.
Sunstate, originally founded in 1977 by Mike Watts, is currently the sixth largest rental equipment company in the U.S., with 95 branches located in 16 states from coast to coast. Today, Sunstate is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sumitomo Corporation.
Sunstate is located in Phoenix at 5425 E. Washington St.
