However, under certain circumstances, we may be able to accommodate free delivery on orders slightly below this amount.

  • Delivery and pickup schedule: Flexible scheduling requests can help us accommodate smaller orders.
  • Events volume: If we have fewer bookings during your chosen week, we may be able to waive the minimum order amount.

We've been providing tents and other event equipment rentals since 2007, helping countless clients create unforgettable memories.

Kindly check out About Us page for more information.

Charlotte Party Rentals is a fully insured North & South Carolina company (including commercial auto and worker's compensation insurance).

We can provide a copy of our insurance policy upon request.

 

Please note:

  • Municipalities, schools, churches, and other venues may have additional insurance requirements for events held on their premises. If the case, please contact us in advance to make the necessary arrangements.
  • After receiving each rental unit, the lessee/using party becomes responsible for the remaining operations, ensuring the safety of themselves and others while using the equipment, as well as any potential damage to personal property.
  • Party Time Events LLC DBA Charlotte Party Rentals is not responsible for any injuries or damages resulting from the use of our rental equipment.

Onsite Hours and Delivery:

 

Delivery & Pickup: Mondays to Fridays, 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

 

To ensure your event runs smoothly, we can generally set up tents 3-4 days before your event start date.

As most events happen on weekends, deliveries are typically made from Wednesdays to Fridays, depending on order volume.

 

Special Requests:

  • We are happy to accommodate specific delivery and pickup schedules whenever possible. Please inform our event consultants of any time constraints as soon as possible. 
  • Important: Please note that additional fees may apply for time-specific requests.

While your presence isn’t always mandatory at delivery, we highly recommend you or a trusted representative be present. This ensures the delivery goes smoothly and meets your event needs, including

 

  • Verification of the delivery order: Signing off ensures you receive everything you ordered.

Note - Remember, you're responsible for all delivered items once delivery is complete. Multiple delivery trips may incur additional fees.

  • Precise placement of tents and other items: Our team can't guarantee placement without your input or a designated representative.

Note - During booking, we normally require you to provide a site image or photo with clear markings indicating where you want the tent and other rentals placed. This serves as a helpful reference even if you can't be present during setup. However, our professional installers retain final discretion based on safety and feasibility to ensure a successful event.

To ensure a smooth and efficient delivery, please take a moment to prepare your tent site beforehand:

 

- Remove any vehicles or other objects that might block our delivery crew's access.

- Clear the tent site of any removable obstructions, such as toys, furniture, trash, debris, and animal waste.

- Complete any necessary mowing or landscaping before delivery.

If you have a scheduled landscaper, inform them about any changes to their access schedule to avoid conflicts with the delivery.

Tipping for tent delivery is not a standard practice in the event rental industry, as the delivery fee often covers the driver's compensation. However, your appreciation for their efforts is always welcome!

A tip of 10-15% of the delivery fee shows your gratitude for their effort and will be welcomed with a smile.

Yes, Charlotte Party Rentals' Rental Protection Plan does cover loss due to vandalism or theft. However, there are a few important points to note:

    • A $2500 deductible applies. This means you will be responsible for the first $2500 of any loss before the plan kicks in.

Built on trust: With over a decade of experience, Charlotte Party Rentals has a reputation for excellence. We designed this plan with your needs in mind.

Our Rental Protection Plan is an affordable way to safeguard your event. It costs just 8% of your rental total.

Do you have your own equipment insurance? Great!

 

To waive our Rental Protection Plan fee, please provide a Certificate of Insurance before your rental date. The certificate should:

 

  • Identify Charlotte Party Rentals or Party Time Events LLC as Loss Payee on your equipment policy.
  • Include Party Time Events LLC as an Additional Insured on your general liability policy.

 

Important: Failure to provide the certificate will require purchasing the Rental Protection Plan.
