Distribution centers run on throughput and uptime. Whether you are building a new facility, expanding a footprint, or completing upgrades inside an operating building, conditions on site can change quickly. REIC Rentals supports contractors, owners, and facility teams with equipment rentals and specialty climate control solutions that help protect schedules, reduce downtime, and keep work zones productive.
From slab to closeout, and from maintenance shutdowns to emergency response, we provide job-ready equipment backed by service you can rely on.
Support for DC construction, expansions, and retrofits
REIC Rentals supports distribution center projects across a wide range of scopes, including:
- New builds and large-footprint expansions
- Interior build-out and tenant improvements
- Conveyor, automation, and mezzanine installations
- Dock door and bay upgrades
- Electrical and mechanical room upgrades
- Facility shutdowns, phased renovations, and commissioning support
We can stage equipment by zone to support phased schedules while keeping operations moving where needed.
Climate control for comfort, productivity, and finish protection
Temperature, humidity, and airflow impact both workforce productivity and construction quality, especially in high-volume interior spaces.
Common applications include:
- Temporary heating for winter construction and controlled indoor conditions
- Temporary cooling for heat relief in large interior areas and active work zones
- Dehumidification and drying to manage moisture and protect interior finishes
- Ventilation and air movement to improve airflow and support safer working conditions
These solutions are often used to help maintain progress on drywall, paint, flooring, and closeout tasks that can be delayed by moisture and temperature swings.
Moisture control for interior build-out and schedule protection
Distribution centers often have long interior runs, high ceilings, and large slabs. When humidity rises or water is introduced, drying can slow down the schedule. REIC Rentals helps with:
- Dehumidification and airflow support to stabilize humidity
- Dry-out assistance after weather intrusion or plumbing events
- Maintaining consistent conditions for finish-sensitive scopes and closeout readiness
Equipment rentals for logistics, access, and productivity
DC projects involve continuous material movement and vertical work. REIC Rentals supports efficiency with job-ready rentals, including:
- Aerial lifts and access equipment for overhead and high-bay work
- Material handling rentals to support staging and placement
- Earthmoving, compaction, and concrete support rentals (as needed)
- Trench and shoring solutions where required
- Vehicles and trailers to support jobsite logistics
Temporary utilities for extended shifts and commissioning
Distribution center schedules often include night work and accelerated timelines. REIC Rentals supports uptime with:
- Generators and compressors for temporary site utilities
- Jobsite lighting for night shifts, early starts, and low-visibility work zones
- Pumps and water management for drainage, dewatering, and weather-driven conditions
