Jeff,

I've rented one of these twice and they work great: https://www.ditchwitch.com/trenchers/walk-behind/rt20 <https://www.ditchwitch.com/trenchers/walk-behind/rt20>
Takes a little bit of practice to get the hang of running them, but they can make quick work of your job.

yeh….you probably got the wrong rental guy. Most should carry a unit like this….the DitchWitch RT20 walk behind.
