Chain link temporary fence panels run $30 to $75 a day depending on quantity and how long you need them up. San Rafael Porta Pros stocks standard 6 x 10 chain link temporary fence panels for construction sites, demo projects and events, and delivery gets scheduled around your site access, not the other way around.
A chain link temporary fence panel is a freestanding galvanized steel frame with woven chain link mesh, usually built in the 6 x 10 chain link temporary fence panel size, standing on rubber feet so nothing gets driven into the ground. Cyclone chain link temporary fence panels clip together with couplers, so a crew can wall off a lot line or a demo zone in an afternoon without permits for the fence itself, though placement in the public right of way in San Rafael still needs checking with the city before panels go up on a sidewalk or curb strip. Most contractors pair the fence with temporary fence rental planning that maps gate locations to where trucks actually enter. If your job also needs a dumpster, keep about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck for a roll-off dumpster rental delivery, since a fence line placed too close blocks the swing. Sites running construction site services in San Rafael often fence the whole yard, then drop a construction dumpster rental and a porta john rental inside the same perimeter so nothing sits exposed overnight.

Temporary chain link fence rental prices sit in the $30 to $75 per day band, with the total driven by panel count, gate hardware, and how many days the job runs. A short weekend job costs less per panel than a single day rental because the delivery and pickup trip gets spread across more use, similar to how porta potty rental cost drops per day on longer bookings. Below is the daily rate range for a standard fence run.
| item | duration | typical daily rate |
|---|---|---|
| chain link fence panel | day | $30 to $75 |
Delivery is billed separately and depends on how far the truck travels and how many panels are on the load. A site 4.3 miles away in San Anselmo or 5.1 miles southwest in Larkspur costs less to reach than a job out past Novato, 11.0 miles north of San Rafael. For sites needing a longer commitment, ask about bundling fence with a temporary fence cost estimate alongside other rentals like a storage container rental for tools left on site overnight.
Fencing keeps the public off an active work zone and keeps tools, materials and equipment from walking off overnight. OSHA 1926.25 requires scrap and debris cleared from work areas, and a fenced perimeter makes that housekeeping easier to hold since nobody outside the crew is wandering through stacked material. OSHA 1926.202 also calls for barricades protecting employees to meet ANSI D6.1, which is the same logic that pushes most general contractors in San Rafael toward chain link over plastic mesh on any job lasting more than a few days. Chain link temporary fence rental near California job sites usually pairs with crowd control barrier rental at entry points and a chain link temporary fence run along the property line, with a portable restroom rental and a handwashing station rental placed inside the fence near the gate so workers do not have to cross open ground.
Measure your perimeter in linear feet and divide by 10, since each panel spans 10 feet. A quarter acre lot typically runs 30 to 40 panels once you account for gates and corners. Check how many porta potties do I need if you are planning restrooms for the same crew size.
Yes. Weekend rates apply for short events like festivals or markets, and panels come down the same day the event ends. Many customers add event restroom rental or festival restroom rental units to the same delivery to save a trip.
Permit rules vary by placement, especially on public sidewalks or right of way. Confirm with the City of San Rafael before your delivery date. See porta potty permit requirements for how permitting questions generally work on rented equipment.
