Cumming, GA — [8/18/2025] — Talisman Rentals is pleased to announce that the rental division of Terry's Equipment Sales is now part of the Talisman Rentals network. Talisman Rentals and Terry's Equipment entered into a Joint Venture arrangement to promote and grow Terry's rental business as part of the Talisman network and operating as Talisman Rentals Cumming.
While the rental operation will now carry the Talisman name, the lawnmower sales, parts, and service division will continue under the name Terry’s Equipment Sales, remaining locally owned and operated.
This partnership brings together two teams that share a deep respect for their customers, a belief in doing the job right, and a long-standing commitment to the communities they serve. “We’re truly honored to take on the rental side of the business from a company as well-respected as Terry’s,” said Jaco du Plessis, President of Talisman Rentals. “Our goal isn’t to change what works—but to support it, build on it, and continue earning the trust of this community every day.”
“We’ve always taken pride in serving the people of Cumming with honest work and dependable service,” said Kevin Carnahan, Owner of Terry’s Equipment Sales. “As our business continues to grow, this partnership with Talisman allows the rental side to move forward with a strong support system, while we stay focused on equipment sales. We know our customers will be in good hands.”
A Shared Focus on People and Service
This transition gives the Cumming rental team access to Talisman’s growing equipment fleet, technology platform, support resources, and operational systems—while keeping the same local staff and leadership in place. Customers can expect a smooth, familiar experience, with even more tools available to help them get the job done.
