Services-Equipment Rental & Leasing, NEC

The Services–Equipment Rental & Leasing, NEC industry, classified under SIC 7359, encompasses providers that rent a wide range of non-transportation equipment, including construction and industrial machinery, medical devices, office and IT hardware, event and audiovisual systems, and specialized tools that customers prefer to access on flexible terms rather than own outright. Typical clients include contractors, manufacturers, hospitals, labs, film and event producers, and corporate or municipal buyers managing short-term projects or budget constraints. Operators generate revenue through daily to multi‑year leases, bundled maintenance, delivery, and asset management. Key risks include cyclical demand, credit defaults, equipment obsolescence, workplace safety exposures, and compliance with OSHA standards, environmental rules, data security for connected devices, and evolving revenue-recognition and lease-accounting guidance. In 2024–2025, the sector is shaped by tighter credit, stronger demand for subscription-style models, telematics-enabled fleet optimization, and ESG-driven refurbishment and reuse strategies.
