Rental Policy

These terms apply to every rental from LA Lighting Rentals. Please read them before you book, pick up or take delivery of equipment.

Hours and appointments

We're open Monday through Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, except holidays. Pickups and returns are by appointment. Evening, weekend and holiday appointments can be arranged on request and may carry an after-hours fee.

Rental period and rates

Rates are weekly, and any part of a week is billed as a full week. Equipment is due back by 10:00 am on the return date; late returns may be billed for additional time. Travel days and extended holds must be approved in advance. Rental fees can't be credited toward a purchase.

Pricing

Published rates are estimates and may change without notice. Your confirmed quote sets the price for your order.

Cancellations

Orders cancelled less than 48 hours before the scheduled pickup or delivery may be charged a cancellation fee. You agree to cover any losses we incur from cancelling all or part of an order.

Insurance

You must carry insurance for the full rental period, covering the full new replacement value of the equipment against loss, theft and damage. A certificate of insurance naming LA Lighting Rentals as additional insured and loss payee is required before equipment is released. Typical requirements:

• $2,000,000 general liability
• $1,000,000 personal injury
• Proof of workers' compensation
• $1,000,000 hired auto coverage when a vehicle or towable generator is rented
• Equipment coverage at full replacement value

Security deposit

New accounts may need to pay a security deposit before equipment is released. The amount depends on the value, scope and length of the rental, and is never less than your insurance deductible. We may apply the deposit to unpaid charges, repairs, replacement or other amounts owed, and return any balance after the equipment is checked in and your account is settled.

Condition of equipment

Equipment leaves in good working order and is considered accepted when released unless you note a problem in writing. Please inspect it before use and return it in the same condition, allowing for normal wear.

Damage, loss and theft

You're responsible for any damage during the rental, whatever the cause, including repair labor, parts and testing. Equipment that is lost, stolen, not returned or damaged beyond repair is charged at full new replacement value. Rental fees are not credited toward repair or replacement costs, and these charges may be applied to your deposit or payment method on file.

Equipment identification

Don't remove, cover or alter asset tags, serial numbers or labels. Tampering is a breach of these terms and may be charged as a replacement.

Liability and indemnity

LA Lighting Rentals is not liable for loss, damage or injury arising from the use or operation of rented equipment or from personnel you engage. You agree to indemnify and hold LA Lighting Rentals harmless from claims, losses and expenses, including legal fees, arising from the use, condition or operation of the equipment during the rental. Rental charges remain due regardless of loss or damage. Your rental is also governed by the lease agreement you sign.
