FORT MILL, SC – April 30, 2008 – At 12:01 am, Sunbelt Rentals launched a state-of-the-art web site that will set a new standard in the rental industry.
“Sunbelt has once again raised the bar,” said John Stadick, vice president of information technology. “We believe the functionality of our new web site is unlike any other in our industry. We now offer the most comprehensive suite of online tools that will allow our customers to easily manage their account throughout the complete rental lifecycle.”

In addition to leading functionality, the web site also features a modern design and simplified navigation.
“We are excited to offer our customers a new tool that ultimately helps them manage their rental activity,” said Brendan Horgan, chief operating officer. “With our web site, customers can view detailed information on job sites and equipment. They can even see the weather.”
