ABOUT

PowerTrip Rentals is a family owned and operated business started in 2006 by Evan Crawford and his father Jay Crawford, out of their home in Rancho Dominguez, California. The name is a mash-up of the words “Power” which stands for “generators” and “trip” which stands for “traveling”.

Then In 2009, PowerTrip opened their first official location in Long Beach, CA.

“Champion Off-Road Racing gave us our first generator order. After that, we fueled our growth unit-by-unit, meeting each client request. There is no job too large or too small PowerTrip can’t handle. ” says Evan Crawford.

Today, PowerTrip’s inventory consists of generators, distro, HVAC, lifts, and temporary lighting. Plus, PowerTrip sets itself apart by offering a wider range of services like generator installation for planned and unplanned power outages, on-site heavy equipment techs, technical advice at many levels of a production, and OSHA training—services competitors don’t.

“A customer may call and have no idea how to build a job. We can do that for them. We have a reputation for premium 24/7 service no matter if there is a piece of equipment that needs to be picked up, dropped off, or serviced.” adds Crawford. “And as a licensed sales rep for Honda, JLG, Shindaiwa, Allmand, Genie, Wacker, and HiPower, PowerTrip will will buy or sell you new or used equipment.”

In 2020, PowerTrip is on their way toward reaching their mission of becoming the largest one-stop event production company in California.
