Delivery and Pick Ups

How does pricing work?
Pricing is based upon a 24 hour rental period.

How and when do I pay?
If your event date is within 30 days of your contract date a 100% deposit is required.  If your event date is 31 days or longer from your contract date 50% non refundable deposit is required.  Final payment must be received 5 business days prior to delivery.

When should I make my reservation?
Orders are based on a first come first serve basis.  The sooner you place your order the sooner we can reserve and guarantee the equipment for your event.

What about changes to my order?
We always try to accommodate changes to your order. If at any time you cancel your order you will forfeit all of your deposits. If you cancel your order within 5 business days of the delivery you will be liable for the full amount of the order.  A $25.00 administration fee will be applied to any changes made within 5 business days of the delivery date or will call of the rental.

It depends on the equipment.  Some equipment such as tents, staging and dance floors include set-up and take-down.  Other items such as tables, chairs, and linens do not include set-up or take-down and these services are offered at an additional fee.
