Testimonials

On 7/11/2025 Joshua Gross had this to say:
I only rent from here maybe once or twice every couple of years and remember who I am, they work with me really well. I'm just honestly really impressed with they're awesomeness here. When it needs to be fixed they fix it and they don't send you out with anything that needs repaired. When I was in construction, the company I worked for rented from another place and they typically sent out junk items. A-1 rentals will never do that

On 6/16/2025 brandon hunter had this to say:
We had a little malfunction with a grill we rented there, but they did their best to make it right. I would definitely still rent from there again.

On 6/11/2025 Jason Cogdill had this to say:
Consistently we've reserved and rented equipment that saved us a large contractor bill or purchase cost. They're friendly at the desk and the yard.

On 5/29/2025 Zach Winborn had this to say:
