RENTAL POLICIES – DJ EQUIPMENT RENTAL

Rental Day = 24 hours

To guarantee availability of your rental equipment, you must reserve two or more weeks in advance. Please specify if your order is urgent. We will do our best to accommodate your special needs. We do specialize in last minute/same day rentals - but you must call for availability.

PAYMENT TERMS (pick up)

We accept credit cards (VISA/MC/DISCOVER/AMEX) or cash as forms of payments for all rentals. All rentals MUST be paid for at the time of pick up. You must fill out a credit application for payments made via CHECK (Business/Personal) or on account.

C.O.D. CUSTOMERS (delivery)

All C.O.D. customers must fill out a Credit Card pre-payment form.
After you have completed the credit card pre-payment form, you may choose to pay for the rental with either cash, or credit card. However, if you do not state your payment preference in advance, we will automatically run your credit card for the rental. This must be agreed prior to delivery. If you would like to pay by cash, you will have to pay the driver upon their arrival. Our drivers are instructed not to release or set up any equipment, unless payment or payment arrangements have been satisfied.

SECURITY DEPOSITS

All rentals require from 25-100% of the total value of the equipment to be deposited for security purposes. All deposits must be secured on a Credit Card (sorry, no check/debit cards). A pre-authorized amount for the deposit will be charged to your credit card. Upon the return of your rented equipment, this deposit will be released and the funds will be placed back on your card. For rentals over a 5 day period, special arrangements must be made. Higher deposits might be required for older, non-replaceable equipment, such as vintage, discontinued, or rare gear. Deposits are not required for production rentals, or long term customers in good standing.

RENTAL RESERVATIONS

To make a rental reservation, we require the following:

1. FULL NAME / Organization NAME (if applicable) Phone Number and Alternate Phone Number, Valid & Current State Issued ID, Pick Up Date & Time, Return Date & Time
2. Payment, Insurance, and Deposit Information:
   Reservations are held up to 24hours prior to the scheduled pick up date. If you do not contact us by that time, your reservation will be canceled. Payment arrangements must be made prior to the reservation expiration.
3. You are billed for RENTAL TIME / TIME OUT, not RENTAL USAGE. If you pick up your equipment past your scheduled pick up time, your rate remains the same. All equipment must be returned on the agreed upon date and time (listed on your contract) - we allow a 2 hour grace period - additional charges will apply if you are late on your return up to a maximum of the daily rate.

EQUIPMENT

We guarantee our equipment 100%. All equipment is thoroughly examined and quality tested prior to and directly after each rental to ensure that your event is successful and free of unexpected problems.

All problems with equipment must be reported immediately to DJPROAUDIO to be considered for adjustment.

DJPROAUDIO takes every precaution to prevent field failure, however, things do happen - especially with electronic equipment. We rotate our inventory to take advantage of the newest AV gear, and test each rental just before pickup or delivery. If the equipment does malfunction, our first priority is always given to day-of-event equipment failures (although these are extremely rare). Our TECHNICAL SUPPORT department is on-call 24/7 by calling - 1.866.668.1596 to assist you with any complications you might have with your rental. Where required, a replacement unit or service technician will be dispatched as soon as possible.

INSURANCE

Insurance is required for rentals valued at over US$1000.00, in addition to a 100% deposit of your deductible or the FULL value of the equipment, whichever is less. Insurance is the responsibility of the Renter. Any damage or loss is at the expense of the Renter, barring mechanical failure caused by normal wear and tear. TERMINAL MUSIC GROUP, INC.. is not responsible for any incidental or consequential damages, inconvenience, or loss caused by product failure.

ALL RENTALS REQUIRE PERSONAL GUARANTEE ON FILE

Proof of adequate insurance coverage may be requested at time of pickup.

INSURANCE CERTIFICATE

TERMINAL MUSIC GROUP’s name and address must be typed in as the certificate holder. We will not accept hand written insurance certificates. TERMINAL MUSIC GROUP INC must be listed as the LOSS PAYEE. The insurance MUST state that it covers rental and leased equipment. The minimum coverage for this equipment must be at least $100,000.00. The insurance certificate must be both faxed and brought in at the time of rental checkout. We will still require a security deposit equal to the DEDUCTIBLE on our insurance policy or the FULL value of the equipment, whichever is less. FAX # 1.888.418.8451

HOUSE INSURANCE

If you do not wish to issue an insurance certificate, you may choose to take the HOUSE insurance in addition to any security deposits. The cost for choosing the house insurance is $1000 deductible, or the full value of the equipment (whichever is less) - which are held as a reservation hold on your credit card, and removed upon safe return of the rental equipment. In addition, there is a $15 insurance processing fee, plus 10% of the rental - which are NOT refundable. You must complete the TERMINAL MUSIC GROUP INC insurance form, which includes your state issued identification information and your personal guaranty. We must receive the completed HOUSE insurance certificate, before the rental can be checked out.
