- CLCody LoosJul 24, 20251.0Reserved a welder and leads a few days before online. Came to pickup the welder with leads and they didn’t have leads. Waste of time.
- SHShaleshia HowardMay 20, 20231.0Terrible customer service and no patience 🙄
- KCKatie ColletteSep 15, 20145.0My husband and I needed to rent a tow-behind auger one weekend. Since he was out of town that Friday, I drove over to pick it up. Sometimes, people aren't as respectful to women checking out power tools and such and can be very patronizing. These guys were anything but! They helped me attach the auger to the truck, showed me how to use it, answered all my questions, gave me a booklet to help me out, and were very nice, professional, and respectful. Taking it back was also a breeze. Tip: Even if you emailed ahead of time saying you are picking up something, that isn't the same as reserving it--so call ahead and actually "reserve" it. My only complaint was that when checking out, there was a fee for "misc". When asked what that was for, the man checking me out was unable to articulate why they were charging me this amount, only saying they charge everyone a misc fee. I asked for the manager, who was quickly able to tell me it was for environmental fees and disposal fees. Cashier and manager were nice about it all, so they didn't lose a star for this! But really, if you are charging a customer for something you should be able to tell them what you are charging them for.
