Once a delivery is made the client is responsible for all items delivered. Additional fees will apply to multiple trips. During Our Booking Process, we normally require you to provide your site image or photo with markings on where you want the tent and other rental items to be placed. We can use this as reference or guide in case you cannot be there during our setup. But this reference will still be subject to Our Professional Tent Installers.

The tent site should be free from any removable obstructions such as toys or furniture and clean from trash, debris and animal waste. Be sure to complete any mowing or landscaping of the tent site in advance. Don't forget to notify your landscaper of any schedule changes for that particular week.

All rental items should be prepared and left in the same manner in which they were delivered. For example, all items should be left UNDER the tent to protect them from the elements, all linens dry and free from food waste.

Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) plans vary widely from company to company. Many are misleading and offer little or no benefit to the consumer. Charlotte Party Rentals has a reputation built on over a decade of experience. We wanted to ensure that our plan was different. Owner and founder of Charlotte Party Rentals, demanded that the plan would be one of quality and substance. By design, the Rental Protection Coverage provides real benefits by limiting the renter's potential for large unexpected expenses and is one of the only plans in the industry that provides coverage for theft and vandalism.

The cost of Charlotte Party Rentals' Rental Protection Plan is a value at only eight percent (8%) of the rentals total.

If you have insurance that covers rented equipment and choose not to take advantage of the Rental Protection Plan, simply instruct your insurance company to send us a Certificate of Insurance that identifies Charlotte Party Rentals or Party Time Events LLC as Loss Payee on your equipment policy and as an Additional Insured on your General Liability Policy prior to the rental. Otherwise, purchase of Rental Protection Fee will be required.
