Frequently asked questions
How should damage liability be structured?
Document condition at handover (photos help), hold a deposit sized to realistic repair costs, and make the renter liable for damage beyond normal wear. For high-value gear, require proof of insurance — the template includes that option.
What if equipment is returned late?
Charge a defined daily overtime rate rather than improvising. The template includes an overtime clause and an abandonment threshold after which the deposit is forfeited.
