Sunbelt Rentals in North America has rolled-out a new mobile app that allows customers to manage all aspects of their rental experience.

The app allows users to find equipment via multi-search functionality and secure a reservation, as well as a delivery date and time. Customers can also use the app to rent equipment online and pick up the order at a nearby Sunbelt Rentals location, see product specs and view frequently rented items to rent again.

Contract details and the ability to organize contracts by projects is another feature, alongside searching and filtering items by date or contract number.

Customers can build a project-specific dashboard to monitor upcoming deliveries or in-store pickups and to see when rental periods are ending. To provide further operational support, the app offers direct access to view and download invoices, make partial or multiple payments and pay by credit card.

“We’re excited to offer this new app for our customers,” said Bryan Gassler, vice president of eCommerce, Sunbelt Rentals. “We’re committed to improving our customers’ rental experience, and we listened to our customers’ inputs as we designed and built this app.

“Now all aspects of the tool and equipment rental life cycle can be managed right at the fingertips of our customers, helping them save time and gain more transparency into their daily operations.”

Other features include:

• Jobsite management: Customers can use the app to create and manage a project, view project lists and details, and search, filter or sort projects.
• Communication tools: The app offers the choice to opt into emails, text messages and push notifications for equipment and project management needs.
• Pricing information: Customers can see costs and fees early in the reservation process.

The app is available in phone and tablet versions and can be downloaded from the Apple App Store and Google Play.
