Be sure to have the exact location picked out before we arrive. Make sure there is 10' of space around the perimeter of your rented tent size for tent guide lines and stakes. (Example: 20'x20' tent requires a 30'x30' area) If you are unsure about what size tent will fit in your area, give us a call and we will measure it for you. (An additional measure fee may apply.)

- Free quotes are available at the customer's request. The quote is merely a statement of cost. It does not secure your order and your items listed on that quote are not officially booked. It is the customer's responsibility to confirm that quote with the G.J.'s Rentals office staff in order to move forward.
- The deposit will be due at the time of booking. Deposit amounts vary per order. Reserving a tent(s) requires 50% (rounded) of the tent(s) rental rate as a deposit. Orders without a tent will require 25% (rounded) as a deposit amount. We accept all major credit cards. There is no additional processing fee for electronic payments.
- All payments can be made in person or by US Mail. We accept cash or money order or credit/debit cards as forms of payment. Electronic payment information can be exchanged with a member of the G.J.’s office staff over the phone. Final payments can be taken care of over the phone at the time of confirmation for delivery or at the time of the delivery itself. If you are planning on paying at the time of delivery, the crew are able to accept cash (exact change), cashiers check or money order only. Gratuity not required but is kindly appreciated.
- All deposits are applied to the total balance of your invoice. Deposits for the tent reservation are forfeited if the tent is cancelled at any time. In the event of a cancelation for any reason, the deposit will be forfeited.
- Any equipment cancelled after they have been loaded for delivery or at the time of delivery, will be subject to a restocking rate of half the cost of said equipment. If items are cancelled after delivery/setup, the sale is considered final and no longer falls within the half cost policy.
- Please have your invoice finalized no later than ten days out to avoid situations that may incur any additional fees. Once the invoice is finalized, you are welcome to pay in full ahead of the event date or you are welcome to wait and make the final payment to the crew leader when you sign for the delivery. Any remaining balance at the time of delivery will be due at that time.

Pick-Ups
- All equipment must be restacked and ready for pick-up either under the tent or together in an easily accessible area for our crew.
- A charge is added if equipment is set up when we arrive, or if there are missing or broken items.
- The pickup for all rented items will take place within the following two days of your event and typically begin in the morning. Please make arrangements to have everything taken care of immediately following your event.
- Pick-ups are not scheduled and we do not require that someone be on site unless we need additional access to the area where the items are located (gated area, locked building, etc.). That can vary upon different sites and locations. Please make us aware of that ahead of time.
- When renting linens, please replace them into the same packing they arrive in and leave them with the other rental items. Remember to check for any personal linens that might get mixed in before the rental items are retrieved after your event. No laundering of any kind is necessary. We will take care of that so you don't have to.

- A Dish Handling Fee is applied to ALL dish orders. Anything not returned or damaged at the time of return that exceeds the amount of the Dish Handling Fee listed on your rental invoice will be the customer's responsibility to settle that additional replacement cost. You will be contacted after all dishes have been returned washed and counted back.
- This fee is non-refundable but it does ensure that any missing or damaged items upon return are covered for replacement costs up to that amount charged ahead of time, as we understand accidents do happen. If the damage is extensive and exceeds the coverage already applied toward your order, additional charges will apply.
- Dishes must be rinsed completely free of debris and repacked in the same containers. Extra charges may also applied for anything still soiled pending inspection after items are retrieved.
