Renta-Fence · Seasonal snow-fence rental

Snow fence up in October. Gone in May. Never think about it.

We install snow fence on your shoreline lot before hard frost, take it down in spring, and store it over summer. No drifted-in driveway, no buried deck, no giant spring cleanup — and nothing in your garage.

Renta-Fence — a Thumb Fence Co. rental program
How it works

Three visits a year. None of them yours.

1

We measure from the air

Every shoreline property from Caseville to Port Hope is already measured. Your proposal shows your own lot from above, the engineered fence line — placed for your shore's actual winter wind — and your exact price.

2

Installed before hard frost

September–November: posts driven, fence tensioned, placed at the vegetation line above the state high-water mark. MISS DIG utility locates on every job. Photos when it's done.

3

Gone by Memorial Day

April–May: fence comes down, gets rolled, and disappears into our storage — not your garage. Renewal is a text message, not a project.

Pricing

One seasonal price. Install and removal included.

Classic red-oxide wood-slat fence at $4.75 per foot per season, or budget poly mesh at $3.75. Prefer to own your fence? We'll sell you the materials and handle the labor every season.

Fall Cleanup — from $249

Leaves out, furniture stowed, beds cleared — done the day we install. Priced to your lot, quoted with your fence.

Spring Cleanup — from $199

Fence-line debris, winter blow-down, beach-edge rake — done at takedown.

Season Care Bundle — save 10%

Rental + both cleanups, one invoice, priority scheduling.

Why it works

Placed by the physics, not by guesswork

The engineering

  • A snow fence doesn't block snow — it slows the wind so the drift lands in a managed zone before your driveway and doorway.
  • Placement follows your shore's actual prevailing winter wind — northwest off the lake at Caseville is a different problem than the field-blown drift at Harbor Beach, and we set the line accordingly.
  • Bottom gap, post depth, tension: the details that decide whether a fence works in February or lies flat in December.

The honest math

  • Could you DIY it? Sure — about $600–900 in materials, a hard half-day driving 13–26 steel posts twice a year, and six months of dirty rolls in the garage.
  • Most of our neighbors do the same math they did on dock service: some chores are worth owning, this one isn't.
  • Away for the winter? That's exactly who we built this for — the fence goes up after you leave and is gone before Memorial weekend.
