I don't know if you're limited in time, but Wild Ideas rents their bear canisters known as "bearikades". I've got two of their canisters, and they're GREAT... lightest weight of all the canisters and they offer different sizes for varying trips.

Here's their on-line rental form:

I got my expedition size Bearikade years ago and never regretted the cost.

Yes, the Portal Store rents canisters both at the Portal and Hostel in town.

If you are going use these thing more than a few times, you should consider making a purchase.
