Part 1

Rental Agreement Terms and Conditions

01

Order Confirmation Date

The date that EventStarts confirms Job pricing and availability in writing to Customer with a Job status as "CONFIRMED", generally via a confirmation email with Job attachment.

02

Payment

EventStarts standard policy is to reserve Equipment for Customer by charging 100% of the Job total to Customer credit card. Other payment methods and terms are subject to EventStarts approval. Outstanding balances at Job End Date will be charged to Customer credit card on file.

Outstanding balances may arise from these or other events: extended rental time, damaged Equipment, missing items, Labor overtime, or additional Equipment added to Job after Start Date. Customer agrees to pay any and all court costs, attorney fees, and any other collection costs related to returned checks or unpaid balances.

03

Refunds

Refunds are limited to the value of the rented items herein. Customer discharges EventStarts from liability or damages in excess of the rental amount in the event of Equipment failure or unavailability.

Customer is responsible for immediately notifying EventStarts Technical Support at 800-231-3132 of any Equipment malfunction or related operational problems in order for any price adjustment to be considered. EventStarts provides free telephone tech support and will make every effort to immediately replace Equipment that is malfunctioning.

04

Delivery, Setup, Operation and Pickup by EventStarts

If applicable, Customer agrees to be available during the Delivery/Setup and Pickup Time window described on Job. Redelivery or re-pickup due to Customer not being present for delivery or pickup is subject to additional delivery charges.

Customer is responsible for EventStarts safe and open access to the Job location for delivery, setup, operation and breakdown tasks. Most of our equipment is heavy, so the delivery place must have an elevator. If no elevator is available, EventStarts must be informed in advance and extra charges may apply.

Customer agrees to provide all power required to run the equipment. Otherwise the Customer should request EventStarts to order power distribution.

05

Equipment Operation by Customer

All of the equipment is tested before leaving our facility. If the Customer decides to set up and/or operate equipment without an EventStarts technician, EventStarts is not responsible for any fault of the equipment.

Customer agrees to be available to receive operational instructions from EventStarts at the time of pickup or delivery and to take possession of Equipment only upon full understanding of Equipment operation. Customer agrees to inform EventStarts when using Equipment outdoors and to follow any specific instructions regarding outdoor use.

Customer agrees to notify EventStarts when taking equipment outside of the New York Metro Area (Queens, Brooklyn, Bronx, Manhattan, Staten Island, Nassau, Suffolk, Hamptons, Westchester). Customer agrees not to expose Equipment to harsh conditions including but not limited to: dust, sand, moisture, extended direct sunlight, or heat sources.

Customer agrees to use care in handling Equipment, including placing Equipment on secure, level surfaces; properly securing cables to prevent tripping and accidental power down; and securing Equipment for safe and secure transportation and storage.

Labor fees for dispatching a technical support representative may apply if Equipment is found to be reconfigured after it left EventStarts possession or if Customer did not make best efforts to follow steps outlined on provided documentation and/or instructions provided during the technical support telephone call. Cleaning fees and/or damage charges may be incurred if evidence of exposure to harsh conditions exists upon Equipment return.

06

Labor Charges

Labor charges on the Job, if applicable, are estimates based on EventStarts understanding of the event and Job requirements. Labor charges are subject to modification if the Job requirements deviate from the original agreement.

07

Damaged Equipment

Customer is responsible for all damage to Equipment from any cause whatsoever incurred while in possession of Equipment. EventStarts will inspect all Equipment returned from Customer and will notify Customer of any charges within 72 hours of Job End.

An EventStarts technician onsite during the Job does not release Customer from damaged Equipment liability. Customer is responsible for the equipment damages caused by their attendees at the Job.

08

Loss and Unreturned Equipment

Customer is responsible for loss from any cause whatsoever incurred while in possession of Equipment, including theft. Failure to return Equipment per agreement terms with no communication from the Customer after 24 hours of Job End Date will void this Agreement, and Equipment shall be considered stolen goods, prosecutable in accordance with New York State Law.

Customer credit card on file can be charged for Equipment MSRP. Customer is responsible for all costs associated with recovering missing Equipment, or the cost of Equipment, including but not limited to costs associated with repossession, legal fees, and collections.

09

Customer Indemnification

Customer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless EventStarts (R.E.C. Promo, LLC) for damages and liability to rented items, persons, and property resulting from the use or misuse of the rented items.
