When do I need to make a reservation?
We suggest to our clients to make reservations the sooner the better. The more notice we have helps us guarantee we can accommodate your needs. Placing an order 4 weeks prior to your event usually gives us enough time. Tents or larger orders usually need about 2 months advance.

What is your change policy?
The customer has one week prior to their event to change any quantities. Special order or sub-rental items are non-refundable. Any changes made after the one week period can require a restocking fee.

What is the Damage Waiver?
The damage waiver covers any accidental damage. It is a percentage of your equipment rentals. The customer has the right to waive the damage waiver. If the customer decides to do so, they will be held liable for any damages that may occur. If the customer decides to keep the waiver it is non-refundable. It does not cover theft, vandalism, mysterious disappearance, or damage due to misuse of equipment.
