- NSNinos sipoOct 28, 20251.0Rented a stair climber dolly from them and it didn't come charged. They included a charger, but the charger they gave me was broken and the unit wouldn't charge so I couldn't use it. I called to tell them and they said to bring it back and swap it with another unit. Upon taking it back, they acknowledged that it was broken and refunded me, however, failed to tell me the other unit was in Encinitas and the delivery fee was $150 for drop-off and another $150 for pick up. They wouldn't discount it, whatsoever. Wasted an entire day driving out there from Santee to pick this up, try it (only to discover that it was inoperable) and return it. Never doing business with Sunbelt again.
- BBBodysuitguySep 12, 20251.0Scammers. Add 15% to every rental for some sort of rip off insurance and don't tell you. Its OPT OUT, not OPT IN, and don't they know it, they don't tell you about this until you return the item then its "too late". Shady practices and given the state of this place and the sketchy looking fellows who work there, I'm not surprised in hindsight. Buyer beware. A "trusted source" they are not - dont trust them! Avoid.
- LMlarry munchinAug 21, 20251.0The equipment that is rented here seems to have issues. Rental practiices at this location are shady. I don’t recommend this company and have moved on ti do business with a different company. They’re Much better.
- JHJerry HerronJul 28, 20255.0Always easy to deal with, and the guys are respectful. They also have a good assortment of products (like a cable tugger).
- ARalex reneaumMay 21, 20205.0Always best customer service.
