Sunstate Equipment is expanding its footprint in the Houston metro area with the opening of a new branch in Conroe, Texas, strengthening its service capability in North Houston, The Woodlands, Montgomery, and surrounding areas.

“Conroe is a rapidly growing market, and this new branch allows us to better support the increasing demand for reliable equipment solutions,” said Stewart Banks, Sunstate regional operations manager. “With expanded service coverage and faster response times, we’re ensuring contractors in North Houston and beyond have access to the equipment they need to keep projects moving efficiently.”

The Conroe branch enhances Sunstate’s strong presence in Houston, where it currently operates five general rental locations, one trench location, and three industrial locations: all providing an equipment rental network for job sites across the region. This strategic expansion ensures faster delivery, increased equipment availability, and responsive local support, helping contractors stay on schedule and within budget.

Since 1977, Sunstate has built a reputation as a trusted partner in the general construction, industrial, and trench safety rental sectors. The company’s full fleet of well-maintained equipment supports commercial contractors, infrastructure projects, manufacturing, and the region’s growing petrochemical industry.

The company is known for its unparalleled customer service, collaborative teamwork, and internal culture that encourages employee growth, empowerment, and respect.

"We're excited about the new opportunities available to the local workforce. We've planned growth in both employment and services benefiting the community," said Banks.

The new Conroe branch is scheduled to open in April. Contractors can contact the local team at (936) 504-3372 for rental inquiries or visit www.sunstateequip.com to explore available equipment and request a quote.

Sunstate Equipment, based in Phoenix, is No. 9 on the RER 100.
