Rental Policy Summary

 

 

What do I need to rent?

Our insurance requires you provide us with either a valid drivers license, state issued ID which includes a photo, current address and identification number or a military ID.

 

 

When do I pay?

Payment, plus any additional deposit is required when you pick up the equipment. 

 

Certain items may require a reservation fee in order to reserve the equipment and we cannot hold the equipment until this has been paid by cash or credit card.  Note that we cannot accept checks for the reservation fee.  When you pick up your equipment, the reservation fee is credited towards your rental, and if your total rental is less than the reservation fee, the balance will be returned to you in the same manner it was paid. 

 

In the event you need to cancel or change your reservation, or if you fail to show up for your rental, your reservation fee is non-refundable.

 

 

How can I pay?

Cash, Debit Card, Visa, Master Card, American Express or Discover Card.  We will accept checks provided they are drawn on a local bank and it has your name and address imprinted on the check. 

 

 

Can I make a Reservation?

Of course, we can take a reservation over the phone for most rentals

 

 

How far ahead should I reserve the equipment I need?

As soon as you are sure you need it. 

 

 

How long is my rental for?

The rental period varies with the piece of equipment. 

 

In all cases, (except trucks or other items with defined rental periods) the rental begins when we complete the contract and ends when we close the contract.  This means time spent loading and unloading the equipment as well as travel time is included in the rental period.

 

4 Hour Rental

Some, not all, of our equipment is available for a four hour rental.    The four hour rate is typically any consecutive four hour period while we are open.   It does not apply to equipment held overnight.

 

Certain items, may have a 4 hour rate, with a defined rental period.  Those rental periods are defined as follows:

 

            Friday 4pm - Saturday 8am

            Saturday 8:30am - Saturday 12:30pm

            Saturday 1pm - Saturday 5pm

            Saturday 5pm – Sunday Noon

            Sunday 12:30pm – Sunday 4:30pm

            Sunday 5pm – Monday 8am

 

There is an additional charge for any piece of equipment that has an hour meter and the meter exceeds 4 hours on a 4 hour rental.

  

Day Rental

All items have a day rental rate.  Note that a day is based on an 8 hour day and is not a 24 hour day.  We may, at our option, allow you to keep the equipment for up to 24 hours without additional charge.

 

There is an additional charge for any piece of equipment that has an hour meter and the meter exceeds 8 hours on a daily rental.

 

Weekly Rental

All items have a weekly rate which is 7 consecutive days.  The equipment is due back on the 7th day no later than the same time it was picked up at. 

 

There is an additional charge for any piece of equipment that has an hour meter and the meter exceeds 40 hours on a week long rental.

 

Monthly Rental

All items have a weekly rate which is 28 consecutive days.  The equipment is due back on the 28th day no later than the same time it was picked up at. 

 

There is an additional charge for any piece of equipment that has an hour meter and the meter exceeds 160 hours on a month long rental.

 

What about Sunday Rentals?
We are open Sunday from Noon to 5pm.

 

Here is how we handle Sundays:

Most items picked up before Noon on Saturday:

Return by 5pm Saturday for a 1 day charge

Returned at Noon Sunday for 1 ½ day charge

Return by 8:30am Monday for 2 day charge

 

Most items picked up after Noon on Sunday

Returned same time Monday for 1 day charge

 

Note this does not include items with defined rental periods or trucks.

 

Confused? 

Give us a call.

 

What about Delivery?

We provide delivery service.  If your rental is for a day or longer rental and exceeds $150, excluding delivery and taxes, we can arrange delivery. 

 

Delivery costs will vary based upon:

bullet

The town the delivery is being made to

bullet

How complicated the delivery is (example: drop off in driveway or bring to the 3rd floor)

bullet

Do we need a trailer or not?

bullet

Can one person make the delivery or does it require additional help?

bullet

Do we need to bring additional equipment to make the delivery?

 

We will try to honor your requests but we cannot guarantee a delivery time.

 

 

So how much will it cost me to have the equipment delivered?

Give us a call.

 

 

What if I have trouble with the equipment?

You need to stop using the equipment immediately and contact us within one hour. 

 

 

Is that all I need to know?

Of course not. 

 

We have a comprehensive rental contract you need to read and sign.  The contract spells out our obligation to you as well as your obligation to us very specifically.  We encourage you to read the contract and ask any questions you might have before signing.
