AC&E Rentals Inc. was established in 1967 in Okemos, MI by Charles and Edna Withrow.  In 1989 AC&E Rentals was aquired by David Henderson who was the owner/operator of Helping Hand Rental and Storage (est. 1985) in Grand Ledge, MI.  After the aquisition Henderson phased out the Helping Hand Rentals name and operated both locations under the AC&E Rentals Inc.   Mr. Henderson retired and sold the business to his son, Ryan Henderson, in 2004.

AC&E Rentals is always adding new equipment, with products that best serve our customer.     Renting to homeowners, as well as small to mid-size contractors has always been our business model and niche in the marketplace and will continue to do so in the future.  The rental industry has changed significantly in the last 25 years, but we embrace the change and can’t wait for what tomorrow may bring.

Currently AC&E Rentals has locations in Okemos and Grand Ledge, MI.  We offer equipment rentals to the Do-It-Yourself, professional contractors in the Lansing, MI market.  Additionally, we rent portable restrooms for construction sites and for special events.  Our Grand Ledge location features a self storage facility with 353 units.  We strive to provide modern and well maintained rental equipment, portable restrooms that are reliable and easy to use for each customer.
