ABLE Equipment Rental (ABLE) was announced as the 2019 Rising Star Award winner at the Access, Lift & Handlers (ALH) Conference and Awards held in San Diego, CA on September 12th. Organized by ALH magazine, the awards celebrate the best of North America’s access and rental industry. Categories ABLE was judged on were: customer service, financial performance, employee training and development, finding new markets, approach to safety, clear strategy, strong leadership and community spirit. The award was open to entries from rental companies with 10 or less locations, as long as aerial platforms, hoists or mast climbers or other types of access equipment represent a significant part of the business.

The judges said, “ABLE has an excellent team: Responsive, professional, progressive and fair. They are excellent to work with and have really told a story of success over the last decade. In 2018 alone they opened three new locations, bringing their total number to six.”

“The variety and number of categories we were judged on demonstrates that each ABLE employee plays a meaningful role in our lasting success,” said ABLE CEO Steven Laganas. “This award could not have been possible without the contributions from the entire ABLE organization,” Laganas added.
