Renting technology since 1989

Thirty-seven years of getting equipment where it needs to be, working, on the day it was promised.

What we do

We own a warehouse full of computers, tablets, phones, screens, audio and copiers, and we rent it out by the day, the week, the month, or for as long as a project runs. Equipment is imaged to your specification before it leaves, asset-tagged against your order, and wiped when it comes back.

Most of it ships, and some of it we deliver and set up ourselves, depending on the job.

Apple and Windows, one order

Many rental companies specialize in one platform. We carry both: Macs, iPads and iPhones alongside Dell, Lenovo and HP, plus displays, projectors, audio, printers and copiers. A job needing forty Windows laptops and six iMacs is one order, one invoice and one contact.

Real people, here in San Diego

Calls are answered by someone here. The same people take the order, image the machines, load the truck, work the phone when something misbehaves, and go on site when a job needs staff there.

It means the person you speak to about a problem generally knows what left the building and how it was configured. That is a big part of why customers keep coming back.

Device management as well as imaging

We’re a Mosyle MSP as well as a rental company, which is unusual. It means a rented fleet can arrive already managed, apps pushed, encryption enforced, and a way to lock or wipe a machine that goes missing. Without management, a rented machine can't be changed once it has shipped.

Who we work with

Corporate events, conferences and trade shows. Training rooms and temporary offices. Production and creative work. Summer camps and university programs. We also have a long-standing wholesale business supplying national rental companies that need equipment in Southern California.

Pacific time is an advantage

Most of the rental industry is on eastern or central time. At 4pm in New York it is 1pm here, and we still have most of the afternoon to image, pack and ship. For a customer whose event is tomorrow, those extra hours can get the equipment there in time.

Where it goes

Most of what we rent ships, anywhere in the country. Across San Diego County we deliver and set up, and we drive further for large jobs or anything that has to be built on site. The warehouse is off Complex Drive, a short drive from downtown and the Convention Center.
