Industrial Generator Rentals for Small and Local Businesses in and around Houston, TX
Small and local businesses are the backbone of the community, but even a short power outage can bring operations to a halt. Shops lose the ability to process transactions, restaurants risk spoiled food, and offices grind to a standstill without lighting or HVAC. Stag Rentals provides industrial generator rentals from 20 kW up to 2,000 kW, helping business owners keep doors open, protect revenue, and serve customers when the grid goes down.
Stag Rentals proudly supports small businesses throughout the Greater Houston area, including Pasadena, Baytown, League City, Pearland, Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Conroe, Galveston, and surrounding Gulf Coast towns. Our dependable diesel and natural gas generators provide the flexibility and reliability local businesses need to stay operational through power interruptions, maintenance events, or severe weather.
Why Local Businesses Need Backup Power
Picture a neighborhood grocery in Pasadena during a storm. Without refrigeration, thousands of dollars in perishable goods could spoil. A 40–60 kW generator keeps freezers, coolers, and checkout lanes running until utility crews restore service. In League City, a restaurant facing a multi-hour outage needs at least 80–120 kW to keep kitchens, HVAC, and dining areas operational. For a small warehouse in Baytown storing inventory, a 200–300 kW generator maintains dock doors, forklifts, and IT systems. Even professional offices in Clear Lake benefit from a 25–40 kW unit to keep servers online, HVAC running, and staff productive.
Backup power ensures that local businesses remain reliable in the eyes of customers, even when the grid is unstable. Stag Rentals partners with business owners, contractors, and facility managers to identify the right generator size, configuration, and redundancy strategy for uninterrupted service and peace of mind.

Why Call To Rent A Generator Before The Next Hurricane Season Begins?
Risks Of Waiting To Rent A Generator
Limited Availability
Rental programs often operate on a first-come, first-served basis. Availability may be limited during peak times.
Delivery Delays
Moving a generator takes time. If you don't have a generator near your site, then you may be missing out when a hurricane hits.
"Surge Pricing"
Renting a generator after a hurricane strikes may incur an increase in price as many rental companies are moving towards a "surge pricing" model.
