PHILLY MARQUEE: RENTAL AGREEMENT

PRICING AND PRODUCT AVAILABILITY

We hold pricing and guarantee product availability for 5 days after the proposal date. Deposit guarantees product availability on your event date.  

REQUIRED DEPOSIT/PAPERWORK

Rental products require a signed Rental Agreement and $100 deposit. Final payment with changes, substitutions and final counts are due two weeks prior to the event.  Some items may be ordered or customized just for your order. These orders may not be changed within six weeks of your event. These items will be designated on your event order.

DELIVERY

Included in your rental is delivery (inside of 30 mile radius from our facility), setup and pick up. We’ll deliver and set up the rentals prior to your event start time. If there is a specific time required for delivery and set up, this must be agreed upon at least 7 days in advance. 

Deliveries to locations outside of a 30 mile radius from our facility are subject to an additional delivery fee. Additional delivery charges begin at $50.00 and vary based on distance. Delivery fees will be discussed during the quoting process and any fees will be included in all official quotes and contracts. 

Delivery includes drop off on either the day before or the day of your event and picked up the day of or the day after your event. Items must be stored indoors, in a secure location until pick-up.  If items are not available or accessible upon pick-up, another day’s rental fee will be charged, and the customer may return the items, or schedule another pick-up time.  If you, the renter, will not be available during pick-up, it is your responsibility to coordinate with the venue to ensure all items remain together in correct location.  

  • Additional delivery fees are assessed based on a two-trip basis (one to deliver and one to pick-up).  If additional trips are required, you will automatically be billed.  If your ceremony and reception are in two separate locations, additional delivery fees will apply.  
  • If items are not accessible upon pick-up, an additional $200 rental fee and additional $100 trip fee will be charged, regardless of fault.  Client has the option to return items to our facility to avoid this fee.  It is not Philly Marquee’s responsibility to ensure the items are ready for pick-up or to look for missing items.  If items are not returned within three (3) days, replacement fees will be assessed on top of the rental fees, no refunds, no exceptions. 

SET-UP

The rental fee includes the setup or installation of the rented item and/or applying only the items or decorations that WE PROVIDE. Fees are based on total number of items, assembly time and decorating involvement.  We do not install or decorate with items that were not provided by us.  The set-up and breakdown does not include cleanup of items that are not the property of Philly Marquee. 

  • If you opt to perform the set-up yourself, all rented items including accessories and small parts must be placed back into proper containers, and cleaned if necessary.

LATE RETURNS

If items are not available for pickup, the customer will be charged for an additional days rental. If items are not returned within three days and customer is not able to be reached, replacement fees will be assessed and charged to the credit card on file. Communication is important.

PICK-UP RENTAL REQUIREMENTS

If you opt to pick up your rentals, they must be picked-up in a secure vehicle.  A valid driver’s license for the driver, a credit card and ID from the card holder must be on file.  Items must be returned on your due date to avoid additional charges.  Any items missing upon return are automatically charged for replacement or late fee (additional day).  Client is to inform us upon arrival is something is damaged or missing.  

  • Bulky order pick-up: Bulky orders must be picked-up in a full size pickup with tailgate, moving blankets, and tie-downs.  Customer is responsible for supplying own moving supplies.  Pick-up trucks arriving in rainy weather or without appropriate supplies will be denied rentals and will not be eligible for a refund.  Tarps are not acceptable as an alternative to an enclosed vehicle. 
  • Small order pick-ups: Small orders may be picked-up in a car or vehicle of choice, but all items must be in the enclosed portion of vehicle. 

DAMAGED/MISSING ITEMS

Small smudges and handprints are acceptable.  Excessive dirt, mud or markings will be assessed and be subject to additional fees.
