A family-owned trailer rental company built on 25+ years of real-world construction and hauling experience. Based in Tampa, serving all of Tampa Bay — fully insured, fully licensed, and fully equipped.
Westshore Rentals started with a simple idea: do trailer rentals the way we'd want them done. After 25+ years working in the construction industry — hauling equipment, moving materials, and dealing with the headaches of under-equipped trailers from big rental chains — owner Brian Gelakoski knew there had to be a better way.
We're a locally owned, family-run business based in central Tampa. We know trailers because we've used them — on job sites, on the highway, and in the kind of real conditions our customers deal with every day. That experience shapes everything we do: the trailers we buy, the accessories we include, and the way we treat every renter like a neighbor.
No bare-bones trailers. No corporate phone menus. Just well-maintained, fully equipped trailers and people who actually pick up the phone.
Brian Gelakoski founded Westshore Rentals after more than two decades in the construction industry. He's hauled just about everything — heavy equipment, building materials, job-site debris, vehicles — and he's rented from just about every chain out there. He started Westshore to be the rental company he always wished existed: one that treats equipment right, equips every trailer properly, and treats customers like people, not ticket numbers.
Westshore Rentals partners with Patriot Hauls — a national platform that verifies operators, secures bookings, and handles insurance so renters can book with confidence. Every Westshore rental is booked through Patriot Hauls, which means verified customer reviews, transparent pricing, and a rental experience backed by real insurance — not just a handshake.
When you book online, you see live availability and real pricing up front. No guessing, no surprises. That's the kind of transparency we believe in.
