The price sheet
Temporary fence in Florida is priced per linear foot for a rental term. Ours folds delivery, installation and removal into that per-foot number, so the table below is the number to compare. Where a range is shown, the low end is for short rentals and the high end is a 12-month rental.
For comparison, a national broker that resells fence leads publishes an average of $8.68 a foot across its network. That number has the broker's cut in it. Ours is what the crew that installs the fence charges.

Rental length
Driven-post rentals of 9 months or less and panel rentals of 6 months or less are priced at the low end of the range. Longer rentals move up toward the 12-month price at the high end.

Months past 12 are billed at a discounted rate.
Extra months
If your project runs past the rental term, each extra month is billed at the monthly rate per linear foot in the table.
Travel

Sales tax

Final pricing depends on site conditions (including wind bracing), footage, gates and access.
Who the pricing is built for
Our ideal job is 500 feet of fence or more. At that size we bring post-driving machinery most crews around here do not own, so a long perimeter goes in fast and the per-foot price stays sharp. We have installed 4,000 to 5,000-foot perimeters and will go bigger.
Inside Martin County, small jobs of 200 feet and under get competitive pricing too, because our Palm City shop is a short drive. The farther a job is from the shop, the more footage it needs for our number to beat a local outfit's. We like to stay within about two hours of Palm City.
On term, we are flexible. One day for an event, up to 24 months for a long build. 6 months is the ideal minimum. Past two years, buying the fence is often cheaper than renting it, and when that is the case the quote shows both numbers.

A worked example
Take a typical Treasure Coast commercial pad: 1,000 feet of driven-post fence for 9 months, windscreen on the 300 road-facing feet, and one 24-foot double drive gate.
Fence at $4.28 a foot comes to $4,280. Screen adds $2.17 a foot on the 300 screened feet, so $651. The gate is $589. Delivery, install and removal inside Martin County, St. Lucie County and northern Palm Beach County are already in those numbers. Before sales tax the job is $5,520, or about $613 a month over the term.
If the project runs a tenth month, the extra month is $0.48 a foot on the plain fence and $0.72 on the screened run: $552 for the month.
Swap in your own footage, term and gate count and the arithmetic is the same.
Why the first quote is usually the final quote
We quote from a site plan or a footage count and a gate list, and we ask about screen, gates and access before the number goes out. The quote states the footage, the term, the gates and the screen, so there is nothing to add on install day. Wind bracing and posts driven into pavement instead of dirt are the two site conditions that can move it, and we flag both up front.
If you have a competitor's written quote for the same scope, send it. We match written temporary fence quotes anywhere in Florida, with footage and term minimums.

When buying beats renting
Rental is right for most jobs under about two years. Past that the math flips, and long estate builds on the Treasure Coast or multi-year commercial projects usually come out cheaper owning the fence. We supply and install purchased fence the same way we rent it. The buy-versus-rent page walks through the comparison.

In customers' words
We got quotes from three different fence companies. Unlike the others, Eric Lawrence came out personally and provided a thorough detailed estimate, for a very reasonable price. Soon after signing the contract, Amanda very efficiently obtained the permit, and Eric and his helper installed the fence in two days time.
“Eric and his crew were punctual, accurate and addressed all of my thoughts through the whole process. The old fence was removed and a new fence was installed in less than one week!”
“Great ownership, competitive pricing, and great work. Highly recommend!”
