12 Reasons to Rent: #8 Storage Costs

Reason #8 to Rent: Eliminate Storage Costs with LGH Rental Storage Savings

Stop Paying to Store What You Don’t Need Every Day

Owning your own lifting and rigging equipment may seem smart—until you’re not using it. Then it just becomes an expensive space problem. From rusted hoists to oversized beams, storing your fleet is more complex (and costly) than it looks.

That’s why renting from LGH doesn’t just save you money on gear—it saves you from needing a warehouse at all.

The Hidden Cost of Ownership? Storage.

Let’s face it—shoving a 40’ lifting beam or stacks of chain hoists into a corner of your yard isn’t a long-term solution. Exposure to the elements leads to corrosion, performance issues, and shortened equipment lifespan.

And if you’re serious about protecting your investment, the costs start adding up:

  • • Leased warehouse space

  • • Climate control & utilities

  • • Structural upkeep (roofing, windows, etc.)

  • • Specialized storage racks or bins

These are recurring, fixed costs—whether you’re using the equipment or not.

LGH Invests in Storage So You Don’t Have To

Every time gear returns to an LGH rental center, it goes through a detailed process:

  • • Cleaned, inspected, and restored

  • • Sorted by size, length, or type

  • • Stored in climate-controlled conditions

  • • Protected from rust, wear, and exposure

You get top-quality equipment without ever paying to store it.

Let LGH Be Your Offsite Warehouse

Think of it this way: when you rent from LGH, you’re only paying for the equipment when you need it. No long-term storage fees, no unused gear collecting dust, and no facility overhead draining your budget.

Whether it’s a single hoist or a full lift plan, we deliver certified, job-ready gear—then take it back when you’re done. Simple. Cost-effective. Scalable.
