Just when we thought the worst was over after Harvey, Irma was waiting to follow close behind, reaching the top of the scale as it hit land with category five force. Hurricane Irma laid waste multiple Caribbean Islands before pummeling Florida. It was then that Tiger secured a huge contract with a major client to supply a large number of generators and rental equipment to power a major communications company in the State. Tiger moved swiftly, with all hands on-deck, to acquire rental equipment to fulfil the immense order. Everyone from sales to admins stormed the rental industry to obtain the generators needed to fulfill the order.

Hurricane Irma severely weakened Puerto Rico’s infrastructure when Hurricane Maria hit the island with Cat 5 force. The disasters seemed to pile atop one another when Tiger rushed to secure another order to supply housing, power generation, fuel and more for the island.

Working with the emergency response team, Tiger devised a plan to convert a supply vessel into a “Mobile Base Camp”. The supply vessel served a dual purpose for temporary housing and to ship consolidated equipment to San Juan. Items included:
• Living Quarters
• Containerized Laundry Unit
• Cook, Galley Hands & Groceries
• Generators, Lights & Transformers
• Fuel, Tanks & Trucks
• ECOmats & Rig Mats
• All Terrain Extended Reach Forklift
• Containers
• Waste Equipment & Services
• Cargo Transporters
• Response Vehicles
With all of the challenges behind us, even now – almost 3 months later, Tiger still has equipment and personnel on the ground in Puerto Rico! The success of this first-time adventure has proven once again that come hell or high water, Tiger will MAKE IT HAPPEN!
