This will now include structure tents, sailcloth tents, and enhanced flooring options from Skyline Tent Company; as well as many additional rental offerings from the other CE Rental locations in the Southeast." Cabell will remain with Distinctive and focus on strategic regional accounts and events in Hampton Roads and beyond.
