The company I work for rented an air compressor from them it was about a 20 to 30 minute round trip depending upon the lights to go there and get it. Got it to the job site hooked it up getting ready to use an air tool with it and nothing. I called them thousand what was going on at first they said let me get my service manager to see if he could talk you through a quick fix, after 10 minutes or a little more on hold somebody picked up the phone an answered like I was a new customer. I informed him that I was on hold waiting for a service manager to see if he could talk me through why this air compressor I just rented from them is not compressing air. With apologies he said let me see what's going on, I was only on hold for 2 minutes that time when he told me if I could just bring it back they'll change it out because waiting on the mechanic to get there could take two or three hours. It may be just me but if you rent something to work it should work when you get there and if not I think the rental company should be putting in the extra effort not me.

Had my crew rent a concrete mixer. It was a complete piece of garbage, the gears kept slipping off and the pull cord snapped half way through. Brought it back and the guy could care less, ended up renting it out to the next person without bothering to inspect it. I've used Sunbelt a few times but I definitely won't be renting from this location again.
