Shopping

We do not take reservations or orders for dates far in advance. We can hold your order for three business days with a pickup appointment, and mailed orders are sent out by the next shipping day. Our first come first served business model allows us to use our fleet in the most efficient way.
Our minimum rental is 7 days, and by using the custom duration option when shopping you can rent as long as 90 days. After the minimum rental has passed, each day is prorated on a daily basis.
In almost all cases, there is no deposit required. We still need to make sure we can verify who you are so we'll need to have your photo ID on file and there are restrictions on the addresses you can ship to.
