Dony Bleeker: Leading with Integrity and Collaboration at Texas First Rentals

As District Manager for Texas First Rentals in Burleson, Texas, Dony Bleeker plays a critical role in supporting customers and teams across multiple locations. With a strong focus on collaboration, problem-solving, and service, Dony helps ensure customers have the equipment and support they need to keep their jobs moving forward.

From the beginning of his time with Texas First Rentals, Dony has been recognized as a trusted leader and resource. Leadership describes him as someone who consistently goes above and beyond to support both employees and customers. “From day one of me being hired with the company, Dony has been a resource of knowledge and is always willing to help,” one manager shared. “Dony always goes above and beyond to ensure our customers are taken care of regardless of the branch or district. He truly embodies our company values, and this shows through his commitment to our employees and customers.”

What Dony enjoys most about his role is helping others succeed. In the equipment rental industry, availability can sometimes be a challenge, and Dony views those moments as opportunities to think creatively and collaborate. By working closely with teams across stores, districts, and regions, he helps find solutions that allow Texas First Rentals to say yes to customers whenever possible. While customers have many options when it comes to equipment rental, Dony believes strong internal teamwork is what sets Texas First Rentals apart and builds long-term relationships.

Company values guide how Dony approaches leadership each day. He leads with integrity, choosing what is right over what is easy, and defines success not only by results, but by growth, purpose, and the positive impact he has on others. Dony strives for excellence by giving his best effort, taking pride in his work, and continually learning and improving. He honors commitments to people and goals, shows up consistently even when challenges arise, and remains adaptable by embracing change and new ideas. These principles shape his decisions, his relationships, and the example he sets for his teams.

Outside of work, Dony values time with family. He and his wife have been married for 25 years and both grew up in Burleson, where they met in high school and attended prom together. They have two children—Madalyn, who began college last fall and is pursuing a nursing degree, and Easton, who is 11 and recently discovered an interest in hunting. Family vacations and time together are especially meaningful, along with their one cat and one dog.

Dony Bleeker’s leadership reflects the values Texas First Rentals is built on. His dedication to supporting employees and delivering dependable equipment rental solutions makes a lasting impact across the organization. We are grateful for Dony’s dedication as well as the example that he sets each day!
