- KKKaitlin KuhnOct 2, 20251.0I rented a scaffolding setup from Sunbelt in Lafayette and the whole process was frustrating. I emailed exactly what I needed, but they sent me too much of some items, not enough of others, and even extra pieces I never asked for. We agreed on a morning delivery time over email, but when I went in to pay they told me half the equipment wasn’t in stock and it might not arrive until after 4pm. Then on the delivery day, the driver showed up at 8am with no warning. The final bill was much higher than the estimate, with charges for equipment I didn’t need. When I later called to schedule pickup, they acted like they had no record of me or my rental at all. Staff were polite in person, but overall the experience felt disorganized, unprofessional, and way overpriced.
