Eagle Leasing, a Kinderhook Industries portfolio company, acquired GoldStar Storage Container & Trailer Rentals, a Wilmington, North Carolina-based rental business.

Owners Leigh Ann Burdick and Patricia Burdick will remain involved during the transition. The acquisition complements Eagle’s existing branches in Charlotte and Raleigh.

Eagle is seeking additional portable storage acquisitions across the Eastern United States. Bernicker Law advised Eagle on legal matters, and Alvarez & Marsal provided business diligence.
