Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On May 7, 2008, United Rentals, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a fully underwritten firm commitment letter with Bank of America, N.A., Banc of America Securities LLC, UBS Loan Finance LLC, UBS Securities LLC, Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC and Wachovia Bank, National Association, for the funding to United Rentals (North America), Inc. (“URNA”) and certain of its other subsidiaries of a new, $1 billion, asset-based revolver loan facility (the “Facility”).

The Facility is intended to refinance the existing cash flow revolver, letter of credit facility, and term loan of URNA and such subsidiaries, a portion of which has a maturity in early 2009, and is also to be used for working capital and other corporate purposes. The Facility will be secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets, other than its real property and accounts receivable. URNA’s current $300 million accounts receivable-backed facility will remain in place. The Facility is in the process of being syndicated to prospective other lenders, with the expectation that a definitive credit agreement for the Facility will be executed and drawn upon in June 2008.
