Tyler Rental runs an extensive fleet that includes aerial lifts, telehandlers and a few Rough Terrain cranes from six locations, five in Alaska - Ketchikan, Sitka, Petersburg, Craig, and Juneau, plus one - Chehalis - in Washington state.

Tyler Rentals was founded in 1989 as a full line rental equipment company in Ketchikan, southern Alaska, close to the Canadian border. In 1994, the company moved into a larger, more modern, purpose built facility from where it operates today, and in 2005, it acquired Panhandle Rigging and consolidated it into Tyler Industrial Supply.
