The American Heritage Dictionary describes Symbiosis as, “The relationship of two or more different organisms in a close association that is usually a benefit to both/all individuals.” This would appear to be a particularly appropriate analysis of the historical relationship between US Rentals and ConVault, Inc./Licensing network.

Recent efforts by US Rentals to update/retrofit its national sites haveresulted in the development of a national account status for a premier performer in the rental equipment industry.

As identified by Mr. Jim Dolan, Vice President of Operations for US Rentals, “We have enjoyed the convenience and safety of ConVault aboveground storage tanks for nearly ten years in 47 of our retail outlets. When a novice heavy-equipment operator is in our yard(s), we have the peace of mind that ConVault’s patented design includes vehicle impact and projectileresistance as well as the traditional fire-safety measures. We know that if they were to inadvertently strike our ConVault fuel storage tanks, we would not have damaged tanks and equipment plus the administrative headache of a reportable incident (leak) called a ‘discharge.’”

“In addition, many rental yards have recently been the targets of regulatory movements relative to emission of vapors in dispensing to small equipment such as chain saws,industrial mowers, concrete cutters, etc. The fact that ConVault ASTs are certified in accordance with CARB Phase I and Phase II vapor recovery is a benefit we have come to appreciate both because it conserves fuel and meets this new regulatory focus.”

“We are delighted that our long-term patronage has generated this new national account arrangement.”

The contact person for coordinating ConVault sales will be Mr. Rich Erickson, President of Don Lee Pump at (209) 537-9396 in Ceres, CA.
