Layouts: Layouts provided by The Rental Store Party Rental are for visualization purposes only. (Set up and tear down of tables and chairs can be arranged for an additional fee.) Due to variation in topography sometimes the layout you have chosen will not work at your specific location. If that is the case, the crew director will give the next best location of rental items (including dance floor) to the Renter or Renter’s Representative. Any changes or alteration must be made in a timely manner and will not be moved after the items have been set up. In the case that no one is available to make changes, the crew director will make decisions as to the best location for rental items. Items will not be moved after they have been set up.

Safety: Safety is our #1 priority. Should your event by hit by high winds, lightning, hail or other poor weather conditions: evacuate everyone immediately. Your tent will be erected to withstand winds of up to 50 mph however, tornado or wind shears can destroy virtually anything, and lighting is attracted to tall structures. Heavy rain can soften the ground the stakes are in and combined with high winds, the anchoring of the structure can be compromised. If in doubt GET OUT! CAUTION: Never move or remove any stake, pole or tension strap from where the installation crew has placed it. This can cause serious problems with structural integrity or damage to equipment. If you have any questions about safety please contact us.
Power Supplies: It is the renter’s responsibility to make sure that all power supplies to the rental tent are made available at installation. We need to be able to check any rental items requiring power before we leave the premises. If no power is available before the installation crew leaves, we can not be responsible for malfunctions of our rental equipment. Additional charges may apply if an employee of THE RENTAL STORE PARTY RENTAL must come back to the site location to fix any problems having to do with power issues.
Public areas: Special arrangements need to be made at the time of booking for any event held at a public park or other non residential area. We require a $500 per night deposit for items left overnight at this type of public area. Deposits will be refunded at the conclusion of your event, if all requirements are completed. Damages which exceed the deposit will be charged to the renter upon pick up or billed to the renter after determining replacement cost.
Renter’s Responsibility: It is your responsibility to secure any permits deemed necessary for your event. It is the renters responsibility to call Miss Dig for every tent installation (this is a free service). This is for your safety and for the safety of the crew installing your tent. Miss Dig will be at the site location up to 1 week before your event to mark for public underground utilities. CAUTION: DO NOT REMOVE FLAGS OR PAINT noting the location of underground lines. It is your responsibility to mark any personal underground electrical or other buried lines, including irrigation lines (sprinkler systems). We can not be responsible for damage to any personal buried utility lines or sprinkler systems.

If our crew is left to do this a fee of up to $150 will be applied. All rental items should be wiped down and debris removed from tables and chairs. Other rental equipment must be cleaned and ready for re-rental. Tables must be free of tape, and staples.
- Notify A THE RENTAL STORE PARTY RENTAL immediately if equipment does not function properly or if there are any shortages, or no refunds or allowances will be made.
- Rental items returned late will be charged accordingly, up to a full rental day additionally.
- Damage to any rental item will result in charges to the renter to be paid at the completion of the rental period, (upon pick up or return of items).

This includes damage to tables and chairs left outside of the tent during periods of rain. All rental items must be left in a sheltered area at all times.
