Party Rental Policies
Payment:
Required at the time rental item is picked up. Orders for delivery must be paid
in full prior to delivery or have the balance paid C.O.D. unless prior credit
has been established. Visa, Master- Card, American Express, Local Checks or Cash
are accepted. A valid driver’s license or other official picture ID is also
required.
Pricing:
For weekday events, you may keep party items for 48 hours. For weekend events,
you may pick-up party items on Friday and return them on Monday for a one day
charge. All prices quoted are “event” (same as one day) rates unless otherwise
specified and are for customer pick-up and return. Delivery is
available for an additional charge. Canopy pricing is customer installed and
does not include set up.
Special arrangements must be made if you desire to have items that will be used
for more than one day. Prices are subject to change without notice. The rental
charge is applicable for all rental items delivered whether or not those items
are used, we charge for time out, not time used.
Deposits:
Deposits are required on some items for reservation (canopies, moon jumps,
margarita machine, dunk tank) and will be applied to the total rent due. Rental
charges are collected in advance on all items. Most items also require a deposit
in addition to the rent. Deposits may be paid with cash or credit card, and will
be refunded when items are returned undamaged, clean and on time.
Delivery and Pick-Up:
Delivery and pick-up service is available for an additional charge (depending on
location). This is for “tailgate” delivery, which means our driver will unload
your order to a single, convenient ground level location, such as garage, front
door or driveway, unless previously arranged and billed. Our driver will unload
and stack your order, but not carry it inside and set up. After use, your
order should be repacked and restacked in the same location as delivered.
All items used for food should be rinsed food-free and repacked in the same containers as delivered. Tables, chairs, and boxes are not weather-proof, please do not expose them to rain or harsh weather. The customer is responsible for the security and safe-keeping of all rental items from the time of delivery to the time of return. There will be replacement charges assessed for all broken, damaged or missing items. An optional damage waiver is offered to protect against accidental breakage. The waiver does not apply toward shortages. All necessary permits, licenses, and public/private utility markings are the customer's responsibility; McDonald Rental, Inc. accepts no responsibility except when they install a tent.
If you are putting up a tent, you are required to call the National Diggers Hotline at 811 before you put it up so utilities can be located in the area where you are driving in the stakes. This should be done 1 week before the event. For all setups done by McDonald Rental, Inc. staff, a ticket number from these agencies will be required before setup to confirm the area has been checked.
Canopy Rental:
All canopy pricing is customer installed pricing and does not include set up
or delivery. A deposit of 50% is required to reserve canopies. Be sure to
811 to locate underground utilities in the yard before you install your canopy.
There is an additional charge for canopies returned wet; please call us if it
has been raining, we would rather extend the rental another day to allow for
time to dry if reservations allow.
Cancellation:
Deposits will not be returned on all reservations canceled within 72 hours of
reservation pick up or delivery time.
Rental Policies:
All rates subject to change without notice. Prices here are rounded to the
nearest dollar and include sales tax. The customer is always responsible for all
fuel. Clean up is the responsibility of the customer. Minimum fee charged for
necessary clean-up is $10.
