It’s never too early to begin preparing for hurricane season. Over the past several years, many communities across the country have been devastated by these terrifying storms – Tomas comes to mind. Minimizing the impact should be a priority of any business and nothing should be left to chance.
No matter what the size of your business, you
should have a hurricane plan in place – one that addresses the safety of your
team members, building preparation in advance of the storm and potential damage
following it.
With the stress of taking care of family, team
members and your building increasing with each new hurricane update, there are
some things you can do now to ease your worry once a storm heads your way. Perhaps
the best place to start for a large company is renting portable power for
the season, which runs from June 1 through November 30.
Smaller investments like renting a scissor lift and chainsaws to cut down tree limbs near power lines — or even trees planted too close to your building — could reduce the potential for power loss, window, roof or structural damage.

| Generators |
Government facilities, hospitals, retirement homes
and large companies that cannot be without power are encouraged to contact
Rayneau Rentals and Sales for a hurricane contingency plan. Rayneau Rentals & Sales has multiple
options available that meet or exceed whatever you may need, ranging from generators, fuel tanks, pumps and
a lot more.
When you begin developing a hurricane contingency
plan with Rayneau Rentals & Sales, you can assess your building’s power needs.
By simply going to your building’s power panel, you’ll be able to see the
amount of volts and amps your building requires. A brief consultation with a
Rayneau Rentals & Sales representative will then determine what size generator
you’ll need.
While a loss of power affects almost everyone
during a hurricane, water damage from storm surge and flooding of nearby streams,
rivers and street drains should not be overlooked either. To ensure your
building or job site is back up and running as quickly as possible, Rayneau
Rentals & Sales also offers water
pumps and more..
Obviously, logistics play a large role in getting
equipment to a client. Being prepared and moving equipment in at the right
times is paramount and Rayneau Rentals & Sales is ready to move within
minutes of a phone call. Not only will the equipment you need arrive in a
timely manner, Rayneau Rentals & Sales will work with the client’s project
manager and set up the equipment..
Following a hurricane, relief efforts and the best
restoration contractors get to work immediately. Contractors who fail to plan
ahead or delay preparations, run the risk of losing out on the equipment they
need and, in turn, potential earnings. Restoration contractors who rent the
most equipment early can usually find the best prices and will have the
opportunity to use the equipment on many jobs — potentially using the same
piece of equipment for several weeks, or months, as they contract new work.
Building a relationship with an equipment rental
company like Rayneau Rentals & Sales prior to a storm’s arrival ensures restoration contractors’ customers will not only get the equipment and service
they need, but also accelerate the process in getting lives and businesses back
to normal.
Preparation and partnering with the right
equipment rental company — one that has the industry’s best, most
high-performing and innovative products along with a proven commitment to
customer service excellence — will make the recovery process that much
smoother.
Think about your business and job site. What would
happen if a major storm hits the country? Will you wait your turn to be rescued
and then wait again for equipment to repair and restore your property? Or start
preparing now and make sure that when the storm does arrive, its impacts on
your business or job site are limited?

a disaster strikes. We want you to be too!
