Unfortunately, utility power can fail at any time, and outages are occurring more and more frequently. Disasters, both natural and man-made, are increasing in both frequency and severity. Your community needs to be ready in the event of severe weather, accidents, or even acts of terror that could knock out the power for hours or days at a time. Keeping everyone safe requires cities and municipalities to have actionable plans, including backup power systems for critical communications and activities.
Pre-owned generators are a cost-effective option for standby emergency power. With increasingly tight budgets, more and more cities and municipalities need to find budget-friendly, but dependable options for providing critical power even when the grid goes down. We sell and rent refurbished commercial generators to help provide reliable solutions at economical prices.

FAQs
Why do municipalities and public safety facilities need standby generators?
Municipal and public safety facilities serve as the backbone of community response during emergencies — and they must remain operational precisely when the power grid is most likely to fail. Utility outages are increasing in both frequency and severity due to natural disasters, severe weather, and other disruptive events. Without backup power, critical services like 911 call centers, police and fire stations, water treatment plants, and traffic systems can go offline, putting public safety at serious risk. Standby generators ensure these facilities stay powered regardless of grid conditions.
What municipal and public safety facilities should have backup generator power?
Any facility that provides essential services to the public during an emergency should be equipped with backup power. This includes 911 call centers, police stations, fire stations, city government buildings, water treatment plants, flood control stations, electrical substations, and traffic light systems. Losing power to any of these during a disaster or prolonged outage can directly compromise a community’s ability to respond, communicate, and protect its citizens.
Are refurbished generators a reliable option for municipalities with tight budgets?
Yes. Professionally refurbished commercial generators offer a cost-effective way for cities and municipalities to secure dependable standby power without exceeding budget constraints. Generator Country sells and rents pre-owned generators that have been inspected and restored for reliable performance, making them a practical alternative to new units for public sector buyers who need to balance fiscal responsibility with operational readiness.
Can municipalities rent generators instead of purchasing them outright?
Yes. Generator Country offers rental options for commercial generators, which can be particularly useful for municipalities covering short-term emergency needs, planned maintenance periods, or temporary facilities during disaster response. Renting allows public agencies to access reliable backup power without the capital outlay of a full purchase, making it a flexible solution for a range of situations.
Can cities and public safety agencies sell old generators to Generator Country?
Yes. Generator Country regularly purchases used commercial generators from municipalities and public safety facilities. They buy units as-is, offer competitive cash payments, handle disconnection and removal logistics, and provide immediate payment — streamlining the decommissioning process for public agencies. The cash received can be applied directly toward budget for upgraded equipment or other essential services, making it a straightforward way to recover value from aging generator assets.
