What crews say
Trusted on job sites across Los Angeles
Rented a mini excavator for a pool demo and it showed up on time with a full tank and a five-minute walkthrough. Rates were straight — no surprise fees at return.
I buy all my cordless gear here now. They actually know the tools, and when a battery died under warranty they sorted it the same day instead of sending me to a website.
Needed a scissor lift for two weeks on short notice. One phone call, delivered the next morning, picked up the day we finished. That's how it should work.
