Chain link temporary fence panels run standard at 6 feet tall by 10 feet wide, freestanding on rubber feet with no post holes needed. Nashville Porta Pros rents them by the day, starting around $30 to $50 per panel per day depending on quantity and site access. Most jobs need a mix of panels, gates and stabilizers, and pair well with a porta john rental or handwashing station rental set inside the same perimeter.
A chain link temporary fence panel is a galvanized steel frame woven with cyclone-style mesh, built to stand on its own without digging or concrete. The 6 x 10 chain link temporary fence panel is the industry default because it fits most gate widths and stacks easily on a delivery truck. Panels connect with couplers and sit on rubber or concrete feet, so a crew can fence off a job site in Nashville in an afternoon, whether it is a downtown lot or one of the porta potty rental sites further out. This works well alongside other construction site services like a roll-off dumpster rental or a temporary power pole, since fencing, waste, and power all get set up in the same mobilization visit. Pair fence lines with portable toilet rental placement so both sit inside the secured perimeter, which also helps with theft and vandalism control on active builds. If your project also involves debris removal, check what cannot go in a dumpster before the fence line goes up around the container pad. A lot of general contractors in Nashville order fence and 10 yard dumpster rental together for small remodels, since both need the same footprint of clearance behind the truck, a detail also covered on the dumpster sizes and dimensions page.

Temporary chain link fence rental cost in Nashville runs in the $30 to $75 per day range per panel, per the measured pricing bank Nashville Porta Pros draws from. Longer jobs get better per-day math once you add up a full week or month of coverage. For general temporary fence cost comparisons across barrier types, including crowd control barrier rental, see the cost guide before you finalize panel counts, and check the porta potty rental cost page if toilets are going in the same order.

Delivery is usually billed separately and depends on distance and panel count, similar to how dumpster rental cost breaks out delivery fees from container rent. A site 15.3 miles south in Brentwood or 9.3 miles south in Oak Hill will typically see a modest delivery charge added to the panel rate. For a broader look at panel types, gate widths and mesh gauges, the chain link temporary fence pillar page covers specs this page does not, and the storage container rental page is worth a look if the site also needs lockable storage inside the fence line.
Placement in the public right of way or on a public sidewalk needs confirming with the city before delivery, since permit rules vary by project type and location. Nashville Porta Pros checks this during scheduling, but the fastest path is calling ahead once you know the exact site address, similar to how porta potty permit requirements get confirmed before delivery. This matters most for downtown builds and any site fronting a public street rather than a private lot, the same logic covered on the porta potty placement guide. Fence height, gate swing direction and ADA-compliant path width, including the 36 inch clear route minimum under ADA Standards 403.5.1, also come into play near occupied sidewalks or building entrances. If your job also involves a restroom trailer or ADA accessible porta potty inside the fenced perimeter, keep at least one accessible unit per ADA Standards 213.2 when units are clustered, per the ADA restroom requirements page. Job sites already tracking OSHA portable toilet requirements under OSHA 1926.51(c) often coordinate fence permits and toilet counts at the same planning meeting, since both get reviewed together on active construction sites, along with light and power needs covered on the light tower rental page.
It depends on perimeter length. A 6 x 10 panel covers 10 linear feet, so a 200 foot perimeter needs roughly 20 panels plus one or two gate sections. Measure the full boundary first, then round up for corners and gate overlap.
Yes, weekend rates apply for short jobs, priced separately from the daily table above. Most weekend rentals cover Friday delivery through Monday pickup. Ask Nashville Porta Pros for a weekend quote if your event or job runs under three days, and pair it with an event restroom rental if the fence is going around a festival or wedding site.
Chain link panels use open mesh for visibility and airflow, while privacy panels add a solid screen or fabric wrap. Chain link is lighter, cheaper, and easier to move. Privacy screening costs more and works better for jobs near residential property lines.
Yes, delivery extends to nearby towns including Franklin, 21.4 miles south, and Hendersonville, 18.4 miles northeast. Delivery fees scale with distance and panel count. Check service areas for the full coverage list before requesting a quote.
Gate panels hinge onto standard fence panels and swing open like a regular door section. Widths vary, but most job sites use a single or double-wide gate matched to equipment access needs. Specify gate width and swing direction when booking through request a quote.
