Temporary Fence Rental Cost Calculator

Put in your footage, the fence type, and how long you need it, and you get the range we would typically give a Queen Creek caller over the phone. The math comes from our pricing page table, no email is asked for, and delivery sits inside the total instead of hiding behind a monthly rate.

Two things worth knowing. Delivery, install, and removal is a separate line on purpose, since we make the same two trips for a one-month rental as for a six-month one. And screen costs more than its own rate: mesh catches wind, so the line under it needs more weight. Out here, on open ground with nothing upwind of you, that matters more than it does in a built-out neighbourhood.

What each answer changes

• Footage dominates, and in Queen Creek and San Tan Valley it is often larger than people expect. New-build lots and converted agricultural parcels are big, and there is frequently no existing wall to count against the perimeter. The how much do I need page has the two-minute method.
• Fence type comes down to how long the job runs and how much strength it needs. Panels on bases go up in hours, never touch the ground, and come out clean. In-ground chain link is far stronger and the right call for three months or more, which describes most of the subdivision and pad work out here.
• Duration scales the monthly rate up, though each month gets cheaper on a longer term. Worth asking directly, because a lot of Queen Creek work runs six months or more.
• Screen carries its own rate and pushes the ballast count up.
• Gates are $50–$150 each. Size them for the largest thing that has to get through. On a site being reached down a long dirt access road, that is usually a concrete truck or a lowboy.

Open ground and wind

This is the part of the Valley where a fence line has the least shelter. Converted farmland, graded pads, and new subdivisions with nothing built upwind yet mean a screened line here takes more wind than the same line would in an established neighbourhood.

Bare chain link lets air through. Screen makes the whole fence a solid surface, and monsoon microbursts, roughly mid-June through September, produce brief gusts that walk an under-ballasted line across a site. On open ground that line has a long way to travel.

Practically: screened lines need more weight at closer spacing, panels tied together, bracing on long straight runs, and in-ground posts wherever the ground allows. The blown over page has the mechanism and the monsoon post has the setup.

If this is a pool build in a new subdivision

Queen Creek and San Tan Valley have a specific version of this problem. In an established neighbourhood, a pool build usually only needs the open sides fenced, because the block wall does most of the work. On a new-build lot where the perimeter wall has not gone in yet, the temporary barrier is the entire enclosure, which means more footage and a properly specified product rather than a few panels across a gap.

Use the pool-code option above so the number reflects that, and see the pool barrier law page for what the barrier has to be.

If this is an event

Event work prices by unit and day rather than foot and month. The barricade and crowd control calculator does that, and most events use both barricades and fence panels. Send both estimates and we’ll fold them into one combined quote.
