Stag Power Rentals runs a diesel-only fleet of industrial and commercial generators from 20kW to 2,000kW out of our Dickinson, Texas yard, delivering nationwide. Each generator is load-bank tested before it goes out, and we’ve supplied temporary power for events, commercial properties, healthcare facilities, construction sites, and industrial operations — covering both planned jobs and emergency outages.
The stretch of southwestern Matagorda County around Pheasant is farm and ranch country, so what you need power for is almost always agricultural or storm-related rather than a retail storefront. Check our hurricane contingency power plan, call 1-844-STAG-PWR, or request a quote for your site.
Pheasant — also known historically as Pheasant Switch — was a rail stop about six miles north of Palacios in southwestern Matagorda County, built along the New York, Texas and Mexican Railway in 1903. It shipped cattle and rice from the surrounding farms. The rail station was gone by the late 1940s, and by the 1980s only a couple of families remained; today the area is farmland rather than an active town.
That’s typical of this part of Matagorda County: rice and cattle operations spread across land that once supported small shipping points like Pheasant, with Palacios as the nearest town for services. Generator planning here is about supporting the working farms and rural properties on that land, not a commercial district.

Looking for a 20kW-2000kW Generator Near You?
Whether you are planning for an outage or have an emergency situation, we’re ready 24/7 to ship a generator that will meet your power requirements.
The Pheasant area is now farmland rather than an active town, so the same rice and cattle operations that once shipped through the old Pheasant rail stop drive whatever generator demand exists here, alongside the same storm exposure common to southwestern Matagorda County. Stag Power Rentals ships the same diesel-only, load-bank-tested fleet — 20kW to 2,000kW — that we deploy nationwide, sized to farm loads rather than commercial ones. Confirm current availability and lead time for your location.
20kW-2000kW • Portable • Trailer • Skid • Diesel Generators
Stag Power Rentals supplies industrial and commercial diesel generators from 20kW to 2,000kW for rice and cattle operations, irrigation systems, and storm-recovery power throughout the Pheasant area of southwestern Matagorda County. Generators are dispatched from our Dickinson, Texas yard and delivered nationwide, sized according to connected load, startup demand, voltage, phase, and site access.
With no town infrastructure left in the immediate Pheasant area, farm and ranch properties here are typically further from utility service than in nearby Palacios, which creates steady demand for temporary power. For immediate assistance, call 1-844-STAG-PWR or request an industrial generator rental quote.
| Consideration | Why It Matters | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Connected load | Total continuous demand from farm equipment and buildings | Grain drying or storage buildings |
| Startup (inrush) demand | Motors draw several times their running load at startup | Irrigation pumps, augers |
| Voltage and phase | Rural agricultural service is often single-phase; some equipment needs three-phase | Rice drying equipment |
| Site access | Unpaved farm roads affect what size unit and trailer can reach the site | Field-edge pump stations |
The Pheasant area is roughly 100 miles southwest of our Dickinson yard, generally reached via SH-35 through Angleton and Bay City toward Palacios, then onto the farm roads that cover the old Pheasant Switch community six miles to the north. We build extra time into these deliveries given the unpaved farm-road access common in this part of the county.
| Factor | Impact |
|---|---|
| Generator size (kW) | Larger units cost more per day but handle bigger loads efficiently |
| Rental duration | Seasonal ag operations may need units for weeks rather than days |
| Fuel | Diesel is billed separately from the unit rental |
| Delivery distance and site access | Unpaved and farm-road access affects transport logistics |
| Cabling and hookup | Distance from generator pad to distribution panel or transfer switch |
| Size | Typical Use | Link |
|---|---|---|
| 45kW | Single farm building or small pump station | 45kW Generators |
| 150kW | Multiple pumps or a grain handling building | 150kW Generators |
| 300kW | Larger rice or cattle operation | 300kW Generators |
| 600kW | Commercial-scale grain or processing facility | 600kW Generators |
| 1500kW | Large industrial or utility-scale temporary power | 1500kW Generators |
Southwestern Matagorda County sits in the same Gulf storm path as the rest of the county, and rural, low-population areas like the Pheasant area are typically last in line for utility restoration after a storm. Our hurricane contingency power plan covers reserving a unit ahead of the season.
