1. SCOPE OF MASTER AGREEMENT. This Agreement governs all orders between All Events Miami and Customer that are documented with a Rental Order Form. Rental Order Forms will be completed for specific Rental Items on specific occasions. All Events Miami and Customer agree that each Rental Order Form will be considered an addendum to this Agreement and the terms and provisions of a Rental Order Form are incorporated into this Agreement and together provide the complete terms and conditions for that order.
2. MODIFIED RENTAL ORDER CONSENT. By signing the Rental Order Form, the Customer authorizes changes to be made to the Rental Order Form by telephone or electronic communication without a physical signature from the Customer or All Events Miami.
PICKUP, DELIVERY, AND SET UP:
3. RECEIPT/INSPECTION. Customer hires the Rental Items on an “as is” basis. By accepting delivery or possession of the Rental Items, Customer acknowledges and agrees that Customer has:
a. Personally inspected the Rental Items and confirmed receipt of all items listed in this Agreement;
b. Found the Rental Items suitable to Customer’s needs; and
c. Found the Rental Items to be in good working order and repair.
ii. If the Customer arranges for All Events Miami to deliver the Rental Items, then the Customer shall have a representative present at delivery. If for any reason Customer fails to have a representative present at delivery, then Customer accepts the Rental Items as though Customer had inspected them and confirmed subparts (a), (b) and (c) above.
4. NO LOADING. If Customer picks up Rental Items from All Events Miami, Customer is responsible for ensuring that Rental Items are properly stowed and secured within Customer’s vehicle. Customer shall be responsible for any damage to Rental Items that result from improper stowing and securing. If Customer is unable or unwilling to properly load and secure Rental Items in Customer’s vehicle, delivery services are available at Customer’s expense.
5. DELIVERY VEHICLE ACCESS. If Customer requests delivery of Rental Items by All Events Miami trucks and part of the delivery route will be on private roads or driveways, Customer shall be responsible for ensuring that there is adequate vertical and horizontal clearance from overhanging trees and structures. All Events Miami provides information on its website regarding truck sizes and required clearance. Customers must inspect and measure private drives and roadways prior to the day of delivery to ensure that trucks will not be damaged in making deliveries. If Customer fails to conduct a proper inspection and All Events Miami vehicles are damaged in making deliveries to Customer, Customer shall be liable to All Events Miami for the resulting damage to property or vehicles. In the event that All Events Miami has to make a second trip an additional delivery charge will be assessed.
6. SITE PREPARATION. Customer shall have the site upon which the Rental Items are to be erected free and clear of all obstacles, natural and man-made, prior to the arrival of the All Events Miami installation crew. The customer shall turn off all sprinkler systems prior to the arrival of the Rental Items. Upon pickup, the Customer shall clear all items under and around the tent prior to the arrival of the All Events Miami installation crew unless All Events Miami has been retained for the equipment breakdown. If Customer fails to do so, then Customer shall pay all costs resulting from any delay.
7. ELECTRIC POWER AND LIGHTING. Except where Customer’s order includes generators supplied by All Events Miami, Customer shall furnish All Events Miami access to and the right to use Customer’s electrical and power lines for the installation and operation of the Rental Items.
8. UNDERGROUND FACILITIES. The customer acknowledges the availability of services for the identification of underground utilities such as water, gas, and electric pipe and conduits (“Underground Facilities”). Where equipment installation will involve any penetration of the ground (tent stakes, for example), the Customer shall have all Underground Facilities in the vicinity of the equipment installation clearly marked with marking paint prior to the arrival of All Events Miami’s installation crew. Customer will be solely responsible for any harm or damage to Underground Facilities and any consequential harm or damage to people or property unless All Events Miami negligently penetrates a clearly marked area. Customer must contact the service providers for the Underground Facilities one week prior to equipment installation to identify the Underground Facilities.
9. WEATHER RELATED RISKS. The customer assumes all weather-related risks involved in holding an outdoor event. The client acknowledges that tents are temporary shade structures and not storm shelters and though water-resistant, they are not waterproof. Should damage or incident result from high wind, snow, rain, flooding, extreme cold or heat, or any other factor beyond All Events Miami’s control, the Customer shall still be liable for payment in full of all charges.
