My contractor friends don't have trouble in California... then they need to be a State Licensed Contractor.
I had the reverse happen to me... twice now I have wanted to rent equipment and both times I was denied for not having a State Contractor License and it was based on Insurance Contractors have to carry...
Even had the same trouble when I was looking at buying Brush Bandit Chipper and the sales guy said I could rent one and if I liked it... the rental would be deducted from the cost of the Chipper... I said OK...
Then, just as I was about to leave... all hitched up and paid... the clerk said he didn't see my Contractor License on file... told him I don't have one and that was the end of that.
