Besides they confirmed one price and the day pick up find out away much coast. They took my driver license and didn’t return me

I did not leave a 3 star rating I left 4.5 rating. I rented a Toro bushhog mower. The people that helped me rent it were super nice and helpful. I do not know where Google came up with 3 stars. The only thing that made me give them 4.5 rating was the blade could of been sharper. It did the job but I had to pass over the cut trimmings twice. Funny thing about it was I made a statement that they could declassifie it as a weed puller not mower. But it did the job and everything they did was spot on. Great place for your rental needs 🙌 I will go back there and rent from them again. Google should put my review to 4.5 stars. I never gave 3 star's. A Harold rented the bushhog to me and was very professional at both times renting it and returning it. Everyone else did a great job. Thanks to the whole team.
