The Rental Show - Feb. 9-12, 2014
Orange County Convention Center, Orlando, Fla.
The Rental Show returns to Orlando, Fla., in 2014 with a positive forecast for industry growth, a top-attended destination and unmatched sales opportunities for you. This show attracts rental professionals from across the U.S. and around the world who continually invest in their businesses — and they’re looking for products and services like yours. That buying mindset not only sets The Rental Show apart, it also helps you turn more leads into sales.
For more than 57 years, The Rental Show has been the rental industry’s premier event, connecting thousands of equipment rental business owners and managers with suppliers. This is where purchasing decisions are made, relationships are built and deals are closed. And it’s where you need to be to maintain and grow your share of the rental market.

Show floor departments
The Rental Show's trade show floor includes the following departments:
Construction/Industrial Equipment is almost exclusively rented by construction firms or contractors and is normally towed or driven to a job site. Examples include earthmoving equipment such as backhoes, excavators and trenchers; access equipment such as aerial work platforms and telehandlers; and large generators.
General Tool/Homeowner Equipment is usually rented by small contractors and do-it-yourself (DIY) homeowners and most can be transported by car or in the back of a pickup truck. The equipment is used for light construction, including building renovations and additions, concrete work and landscaping.
Party/Special Event Equipment covers rental of products to consumers for celebrations such as weddings, graduations and parties, and to corporations for promotional, recreational and special events. It includes such items as tents, tables and chairs, linens, tableware and other equipment specifically rented for parties or events.
