Customers Love Us

  • The staff was extremely accommodating. We have rented vehicles 2 times in 3 weeks to move our college students too and from storage. When the truck we rented was not available, they came up with an acceptable solution, promptly. I appreciate their flexibility and excellent customer service! Highly recommend this location for your rental truck needs in the future!

  • We got married at the height of the pandemic, and Big Ten Rentals saved the day! We moved our original wedding venue from a theater to our backyard – and Big Ten provided the perfect tent with whimsical lighting and a beautiful black carpeted floor. We appreciated your kindness during a difficult week – it made for the most precious and beautiful wedding!!!

  • Rented a karaoke machine & slushie machine. Joe Murphy went above & beyond to make sure the equipment was set up properly. He made two separate visits to our home to help us work out some “kinks”. Costs were reasonable & they were very accommodating with pick up & drop off. Thank you!

  • First review. Though I had some troubles in the past. They have really turned the place around. All of my merchandise came on time the two guys were very polite. The guy who helped me with my order was very polite as well. Last year this review would have been very different. Hope this helps someone.
    Iowa City Reviews
  • Very professional and friendly service. My husband and I have been going here for years! All of my friends chose them as well when needing various things. Always a positive experience with Big Ten. They have a long term customer in me and everyone I know

  • I absolutely love this place. Way better than most rental places. Wish I could give 10 stars. They deserve every star especially their friendly office staff up front.
    Jordan Carter
  • Big Ten Rentals was super responsive & efficient. We were really pleased with the outdoor dance floor we rented from them for our wedding! Would recommend!
    Hannah Blaser
  • I worked with Big Ten Rentals for an event that I was planning to rent their synthetic ice skating rink. I had never used this product before nor had I ever seen it. The friendly staff was always willing to work with me. They answered all of my questions, were responsive to my emails, and always returned my phone calls. The team that came to unload and set up was fast and efficient. I couldn’t have had a better experience. It seemed a little pricy at first, but after the event was over I received so many shining reviews from those who attended. I would highly recommend using Big Ten Rentals for any rental need! They are awesome!

  • Have always had good experiences here. They are all very friendly and helpful and just great business to work with. You will continue to have my business. Thanks.

  • We’ve used Big Ten for a few different events we’ve hosted this summer and have had nothing but a great experience each and every time! Not only do they blow competitors’ pricing out of the water, but they are amazing to work with — very friendly and professional. We actually rented an item that Big Ten does not carry through another company in town and it was a nightmare (super expensive and the workers were full of attitude), which makes me even more appreciative of the service that Big Ten provides. Thanks, guys!

  • Great place to get a moving truck or tools in a pinch. Fair rates will keep us a happy commercial customer. Thanks Big 10!

  • We came to Big 10 to rent/ purchase materials for our annual event and the entire staff could not have been more accommodating, helpful, and understanding of our budget and event goals. Would absolutely recommend for any party, event, or occasion planning!!!

  • Had a demanding last minute need and Kirk worked hard to make it happen. As it turned out, we didn’t end up needing to book the job, but want to say thanks for your great customer service and support in the process.

  • Big Ten Rentals is a great company. Their rentals are always in great shape and other places I’ve called just could not match their prices. I am positive I will be doing business with them again in the future.
    Chris Osterhaus
  • Fair pricing. Had to switch the week of my rental and they did it without complaint or charge. Then I left the rental dolly at home and they didn’t charge me extra.
    Tony Solomon
  • Very friendly staff, happy to answer questions about which moving truck would be appropriate for my move. Truck was in great condition and was competitively priced. Will rent from them again!
    HJ Fowler
