J&S Operated Equipment Rentals’ history goes back to 1993, when Ms. Fern’s husband Scott was employed as a heavy equipment operator. He was working with a woman who needed more owner/operators and told him she could help him get a contract. At the time, Ms. Fern was working as a printing press operator. The couple took advantage of the opportunity to run its own business and created J&S Operated Equipment Rentals.
The husband-and-wife team share responsibilities for operating the business. While her husband manages crews and operates equipment, Ms. Fern oversees contracts, billing and human resources.
Ms. Fern is a member of the Council for Better Business Bureaus and the Air Resource Board. She also volunteers for Angels Against Hunger.
