    Frequently Asked Questions
    When Should I Consider a Generator Rental for My Business?

    Renting is a smart choice any time you need reliable temporary power. A generator rental can support operations at remote jobsites, facilities without grid access, or as backup during an outage. It’s also a fast way to replace a unit under repair or handle increased power demand. If you’re exploring a purchase, a rental lets you test a model before you buy to ensure it meets your needs.

    What Types of Cat Power Equipment Are Available to Rent?

    The Cat Rental Store offers a full lineup of Cat® power equipment, including diesel and natural gas generators in a range of sizes and configurations. Whether you need a portable generator rental for a small site or a large unit for industrial use, our equipment delivers clean, dependable, and cost-effective power in demanding conditions.

    Can I Run Generators in Parallel?

    Yes. Many Cat units can be paralleled to increase total power output or create redundancy for mission-critical applications. Our team can help configure your system for optimal performance and reliability.

    Do You Provide Fuel Tanks or Maintenance Support?

    Yes. We supply double-walled fuel tanks and offer fueling services to keep your power running smoothly. For longer-term rentals, your local Cat dealer can schedule maintenance and inspections to help prevent downtime.
