Let’s be honest: no one gets excited about fencing—until you absolutely need it.
Whether you’re managing a busy construction site, hosting a significant outdoor event, or facing unexpected property damage, temporary fencing is one of those necessities that has to be handled quickly, safely, and without stress.
But here’s the catch—most people don’t realize how easy it is to make a costly mistake when they try to rent temporary fencing without the proper guidance. So, if you’ve been wondering how to rent a temporary fence without all the guesswork, delays, or hidden costs, you’re in the right place.
Why Temporary Fencing Is a Non-Negotiable
Think of a temporary fence as your first layer of protection. It’s what keeps unauthorized people out, ensures safety compliance, defines boundaries, and protects your liability. And in many cases, such as construction zones, it’s not just a nice-to-have, it’s a requirement by law.
Here’s what the right temporary fence rental can do for you:
- Create a safe, organized workspace
- Meet city or OSHA safety regulations
- Prevent theft or damage to valuable equipment
- Control crowds at events and festivals
- Secure hazardous areas after a fire or storm
But the key is choosing the right fence, the right provider, and the proper setup. That’s where many go wrong.
Step-by-Step: How to Rent a Temporary Fence
Let’s break it down, step by step—no fluff, no confusion.
1. Determine the Scope of Your Site
Before anything else, know what you’re fencing off.
This includes:
- Total lineal footage
- Terrain (flat ground?
- Uneven? Gravel?)
- Length of rental period
- Location of Security needs (City or Area?)
- Public or Private Work?
Being clear about your needs upfront will help your fencing provider suggest the best configuration, saving you money and avoiding surprises.
2. Choose the Right Fence Type
At Statewide Rent-A-Fence Oregon, we offer chain-link panel fencing in various sizes, including 4’x10′, 6’x10’, and 8’x10′ options. These are ideal for everything from residential remodels to multi-acre construction sites.
Need gates for vehicle or foot access? We’ve got that covered too. Even if you need a windscreen for added privacy, our fencing can be customized to fit your exact needs.
