In my area the same company's that provide the job site toilets also rent and install temporary job site power poles so most general contractors pay them to take care of it. Occasionally we do get asked to provide the temp power but we are never expected to provide it free of charge.

Electric Eagle - What is included for the $148? It cost me about $600+ in materials to build what is considered a standard temp power pole in my area not including the pole or plywood. A standard temp service pole in my area includes a 100 amp meter socket with 12-24 circuit load center, 1-50 amp 120/240 volt twistlock receptacle, 1-30 amp 240 volt twistlock receptacle and 2-20 amp 120 volt twistlock receptacles connected to GFCI breakers.
