All deliveries and pickups are considered “door to door”. We will deliver and pick up all of our equipment from one location on the property. Please make us aware prior to the delivery of where the items can be placed, or the name and number of an onsite contact. If we were to encounter any stairs, elevators, extended carrying, or difficult driving terrain there will be additional charges. All items must be returned to the area where they were left and stacked as originally left or additional charges will be incurred.

Will you set up the equipment?

Set up of tents, dancefloors, and risers are automatically included in pricing. With prior notice, our delivery crews can set up tables, chairs, or any of our rental items for an additional fee.

How far in advance should I place my order?

All Occasion Party Rentals encourages you to give as much notice as possible for large events like picnics and weddings, but we will always do our best to accommodate last minute orders based on availability. Please remember that for tents we require all underground utilities be marked four days prior to installation.

How do I decide what size tent I need?

We are happy to guide you in finding the right fit for your tent. We can use our CAD program and design a floor plan based on the needs of your specific wedding or event. You can also look under Tents on our home page and see a variety of sample floor plans that we can customize for you.

Do my items need to be returned clean?

All Occasion Party Rentals require that all items including china, stemware, glassware, and concession equipment be rinsed free of food or beverage before being returned. We will wash and sanitize all items once they are returned. We also ask for you to send back the crates and boxes the items were provided with at time of delivery or customer pick up. Linens should be refuse free and dry to prevent mildew and staining. 

What happens if items are missing after the event?

If items are missing from your order we will bill you for those missing items unless they are returned within a reasonable time period. The amount depends on the quantity and type of items that are missing. All items are billed at replacement cost. If an item is damaged or broken please return it to All Occasion Party Rentals to be covered by the damage waiver. If a damaged or broken item is not returned a full replacement cost may be incurred.
