Recently rented a trencher from these guys and I was super impressed with the whole experience. All three of the employees I spoke with were very friendly, helpful, and genuinely wanted to make sure that I was taken care of. The equipment I recieved was in excellent shape and worked flawlessly. The pricing was right, and service was quick and easy. I will absolutely use these guys again in the future.
