Reservations are strongly recommended to ensure desired rental items and quantities are available. A DocuSign and 50% deposit are required to confirm all orders. Subtractions/cancellations will not be accepted 14 days prior to delivery date and/or customer pick-up date for tent/tent accessories & specialty linens and 7 days prior for all other rental items. Additional items may be added to an order up until the 2-days prior to delivery and/or customer pick-up. Restocking charges may apply to order cancellations.

Tent rentals require a DocuSign and 50% non-refundable deposit at time of reservation.

Delivery of equipment is available for an additional charge. Rates are based on delivery to the door, dock or garage at ground level during normal business hours. There will be additional charges for unusual circumstances such as stairs, elevators and long distance carries. Deliveries are between 8:30am – 5:00pm. If you require delivery and/or pick-up outside of normal hours or at a specific time within those hours, additional charge will be applied. Arrangements for set-up and takedown services are also available for tables and chairs for a fee, but must be made ahead of time. All items are to be returned to their original drop-off location following event.

Shortages should be noted at time of delivery and/or customer pick-up. If items are missing and are not reported at this time, they will be considered received and charged according to the original agreement. Charges apply to all items not returned or items returned damaged or dirty. It is the responsibility of the renter to pay for any damages incurred to any items. This includes broken and/or missing items as well as burns, wax or other damage to linens.
Pricing is based on a one-day rental. Equipment is usually delivered the day before the event and picked up the day after the event excluding Sundays. Weekends are considered a one-day rental with delivery on Friday and pick-up on Monday. All rental charges are for time out, even if the item is not used. If you would like to rent items for an extended period of time, please call our office for special long-term pricing.
