Helpful and friendly staff who got me in and out very quickly. I rented a trailer and the price was very reasonable. Pick up and drop off we're smooth. Will definitely use them again!

Some of the employees are rather cold and unfriendly with an attitude. I got snapped at today just from asking a question. Id rather rent from someplace else. VVV Canned response, robo reply below.

Rented for a graduation party, everything went smoothly. The guys who dropped off/ picked up were professional and friendly. Arrived during times specified, called day prior for a double check. Would use again for sure.

The gentlemen at Taylor Rental were a huge help to us when our trailer popped off in front of their business! They came out and helped us get off the road and into safety. Furthermore, offered any assistance they possibly could to help us get on our way. Thank you for your quick response and all of you help!

The staff st TR Auburn were so helpful! I needed a concrete drill. that was huge and unwieldy for this grey haired lady. The crew helped me to select a smaller tool and demonstrated the procedure. They looked at each other and one young man offered to do it for me! Awesome! Project complete 30 minutes door to door! Thank you TR! You're amazing

Rented a tractor and trailer. Spent 40 minutes in the yard getting loaded, was told that they would be open for a return and they were not. We literally called and said that we were on our way and was told we had nothing to worry about. The following morning we returned with tractor just to sit in the yard for another 30 minutes getting the trailer unhooked and tractor returned.

All and all there has to be some where else in town to rent equipment. ---- Same day the management reached out to not just correct but take responsibility. A lot is to be said for a business willing to look into and take ownership. No problem at all giving them a second shot. Management is paying attention and that's important.

My mom reserved some table cloths for us and my fiance went to pick them up and the lady was completely rude to him when he as asking about a table. They charged us 300 plus dollars for table cloths that let me say we're not even what we wanted. They gave us some round some long and some chair covers. My mom called them and they brought us 2 more but claimed they only had 8 and said they gave all they had which wasn't right and they were one round and one yellow stained looked like pee on it.

They didn't even give us a receipt for any of this. And when the lady was carrying out the table she hit my fiance in the shin causing it to bleed and all she had to say was that's what she has been trying to as the top of the table fell and hit him in the shin. I paid all this money and wasn't even able to use the stuff because it was wrong.

We rented a cotton candy machine from Taylor rental, and it was such an easy process! Everyone I talked to was very nice and helpful. We will definitely be renting from them in the future.

Rented a floor sander that quit half way thru the job. I had it rented for 24 hours. Picked it up at 2:30 in the afternoon it quite working at 7:00 I was three quarters of the way done and they were closed. I called them in the morning and they said bring it back we will swap it with the other one they had. I am thinking ok great I have to make another trip but fair enough. here is the thing, the job would have been done and over if it would not have quite working.

Now they want to charge me 4 hours to take the other sander to finish the job the first one was unable too. When I talked to Tiffany the manager she said they plugged the first one in and worked fine. I can tell you it did not It slowly lost power and got hot as we were using it and then it quit. I tried a different outlet thinking maybe I blew a fuse still wouldn't work. I would avoid these people if you have other options the customer service is awful.

Made and sent a large order of balloons on short notice! The quality of the balloons was great and the service was very friendly. Would definitely recommend them for any party needs in the future!

Awesome customer service! Bought a Dixie Chopper from them over 10 years ago and have had it serviced there every year since. Had my first issue with this mower and they picked it up in the morning and returned it ready to go in the afternoon. I highly recommend Taylor Rental in Auburn.
