CLASS LEASING

What CLASS LEASING does

Class Leasing LLC is a California-based provider of relocatable modular buildings, primarily serving K-12 public school districts and public agencies. The company manufactures, leases, and sells DSA-approved (Division of the State Architect) modular classrooms, offices, restrooms, food service modules, and specialty buildings (labs, nurse/medical, athletic facilities) in standardized and customized floor plans. Its core technology is regulatory-compliant modular construction meeting California building codes for educational facilities, combined with a procurement methodology of California-approved piggyback contracts that allow schools and public agencies to bypass lengthy public bidding processes.

The business model operates on three revenue streams: recurring monthly leasing of modular units (over 3,000 modules currently on lease), direct one-time sales of buildings, and add-on services (ADA ramps, skirting, HVAC upgrades, data cabling, furniture). The company also offers in-house lease-to-own financing. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with multi-year contracts typical. Go-to-market is exclusively direct enterprise field sales via phone, email, and website contact forms, targeting California school districts.

Class Leasing operates as a subsidiary of Reliant Asset Management (RAM) and in 2025 became part of the Sunbelt Rentals family. The company is headquartered in San Jacinto, California, with 51-100 employees, and has served California schools for over 25 years.
