Rental Policies and Procedures

This is a summary of our rental policies and procedures. A complete rental agreement can be found on the back of each rental contract.

 

RESERVATIONS & CHECKOUT

Please reserve your equipment well in advance to ensure availability. If an item you need does not appear in our catalog or website, please inquire with your rental agent.
Our facility is available for examination and testing of equipment before acceptance of the rental. Long-term rates are available and must be discussed and confirmed with the rental department.

PROOF OF INSURANCE

When renting any equipment from Postman Productions, an insurance certificate must be provided. We have outlined below the specific requirements that must be met to insure full coverage.
General Liability: You must have liability insurance that covers at least $500,000. Postman Productions must be named as "Additional Insured" under Special Provisions.
Equipment Coverage: This must cover all equipment being rented - not just from Postman Productions.
Your rental agent can provide you with the value of the gear you are renting from us, but make sure that the total amount being rented for your production does not exceed the limit outlined in your policy.
Postman Productions must be listed as "Loss Payee" under Special Provisions.
The "Unattended Vehicle Theft Exclusion" will not be accepted. Confirm with your insurance provider that you will be covered in the event that equipment is lost, stolen, or damaged while in an unattended vehicle.
International productions shooting within the United States must have US based insurance. US productions shooting outside of the country must provide a certificate showing worldwide coverage on rental equipment.

Postman Productions is happy to provide a list of insurance brokers if you do not have one. We do not provide insurance ourselves for clients to buy. Please let us know if you have any questions beyond what is outlined here.
For reference, we have provided this sample insurance certificate.
Please be sure that your personal equipment is covered under an insurance policy. Postman Productions will not accept responsibility for non-owned equipment.
