When Renting Makes Sense

When most people think about investing in their business, it entails making a large fixed asset purchase. Many Global Drying customers are shocked when we show how renting equipment such as commercial dehumidifiers might be the best investment that they will ever make.

Our team has observed equipment utilization rates for hundreds of restoration companies. Our experience shows that most companies use their equipment less than 10% of the time over its useful life. That equates to roughly 328 days out of every calendar year during which the equipment simply sits, unused, in a warehouse.

We crunched numbers to compare profits from purchasing versus renting equipment. In order for the profit from purchased equipment to equal the profit earned from reinvested working capital when using rental equipment, a 38% utilization rate is required – a number virtually unheard of in the industry. In two years, it's the potential difference between earning $4,900 or $27,600. And that's an investment that would be hard for anyone to overlook!

One of the first reactions we always get is, "Sure, that's great, but how do I know that I'll have the equipment I need, when the job is available? After all, it's the early bird who gets the worm!" That's why Global Drying Equipment offers outstanding customer service options, including our Honor Lease Program for select customers to pay only according to reported usage while keeping the equipment on site. It's an option virtually unheard of in our industry, and one that can make a huge impact on your bottom line.

Want to see for yourself the difference in partnering with Global Drying Equipment to source your restoration equipment needs? Contact our sales team today. One of our business-focused sales team members will be happy to work with you to create a custom leasing package that meets your unique needs. We'd be honored to be an integral part of the best investment your business has ever made.

The Colorado State University 2017 Hurricane Season forecast is one of the first out this year.

Colorado State University hurricane researchers are predicting a slightly below-average Atlantic hurricane season in 2017, citing the potential development of El Niño as well as recent anomalous cooling in the tropical Atlantic as primary factors.

The CSU Tropical Meteorology Project team is predicting 11 named storms during the Atlantic hurricane season, which runs from June 1 to November 30. Of those, researchers expect four to become hurricanes and two to reach major hurricane strength (Saffir/Simpson category 3-4-5) with sustained winds of 111 miles per hour or greater.
The team bases its forecasts on 60 years of historical data that include Atlantic sea surface temperatures, sea level pressures, vertical wind shear levels (the change in wind direction and speed with height in the atmosphere), El Niño (warming of waters in the central and eastern tropical Pacific), and other factors.
So far, the 2017 hurricane season is exhibiting characteristics similar to 1957, 1965, 1972, 1976, and 2002. “The years 1957, 1965, 1976 and 2002 had slightly below-average hurricane activity, while 1972 was a well below-average season,” said Phil Klotzbach, research scientist in the Department of Atmospheric Science and lead author of the report.

Landfall Probability
The report also includes the probability of major hurricanes making landfall:
42 percent for the entire U.S. coastline (average for the last century is 52 percent)
24 percent for the U.S. East Coast including the Florida peninsula (average for the last century is 31 percent)
24 percent for the Gulf Coast from the Florida panhandle westward to Brownsville (average for the last century is 30 percent)
34 percent for the Caribbean (average for the last century is 42 percent)
The forecast team also tracks the likelihood of tropical storm-force, hurricane-force and major hurricane-force winds occurring at specific locations along the coastal United States, the Caribbean and Central America through its Landfall Probability website. The site provides information for all coastal states as well as 11 regions and 205 individual counties along the U.S. coastline from Brownsville, Texas, to Eastport, Maine. Landfall probabilities for regions and counties are adjusted based on the current climate and its projected effects on the upcoming hurricane season.
