Temporary Power & Distribution Rental for Facility

 

When construction wrapped on a new large-scale distribution facility, permanent utility power wasn’t ready. With operations scheduled to begin immediately, downtime was not an option. The facility turned to Garrett McKenzie for a fast, scalable temporary power rental solution.

 

 

 

The Challenge

  • Facility located 900+ miles from our main depot
  • Power required within 3 days (over a weekend)
  • A massive property requiring extensive mobilization and setup
  • Waiting for the utility company would have meant delays and lost revenue. The customer needed a trusted partner to step in quickly with a complete solution.

 

 

The Response

After several planning calls, the facility was confident in Garrett McKenzie’s ability to deliver. Late Friday, the call came in: power needed to be fully operational by Monday morning.

Our team immediately mobilized generators, cabling, and accessories. Delivery was coordinated with support vehicles, a semi truck and trailer, and a 30-ton crane for staging. Technicians worked around the clock through Saturday and Sunday to install and test all equipment.

In under 60 hours, Garrett McKenzie:

  • Delivered 7 Megawatts of temporary power
