Your health, privacy, safety and security are of paramount importance to
us. That is why we only rent out equipment that is fully functional and sanitized.
Our policies are designed to meet our stringent standards and yours. We want to
make sure that you get well soon, but we do not want to invade your privacy. We
want to ensure that you feel safe with our staff and our equipment. We respond
to and rectify any problems that you may face (not that you will!) as soon as
possible. We want to make you happy with our service and our equipment – you
will not be disappointed
Applicability
This
policy, in addition to the separately provided “Equipment Lease Agreement,” is
applicable to all rentals or leases of equipment from Wheels For Feet, its
affiliates or subsidiaries (“company”). This rental policy is the default and
supersedes “Equipment Lease Agreement”, unless otherwise stated. Any entity
that rents or leases equipment from the company is hereafter referred to as the
customer(s).
Liability Release
The
customer releases the company of any liability, subject to the “Liability
Release Agreement” separately supplied to and agreed to by the customer.
Rental Period
The “Rental Period” is
the period of time between the “Start of the Rental” and the “End of the
Rental,” as defined here. The “Start of the Rental” is the date and time of the
beginning of the rental as determined at reservation. This is regardless of
whether actual delivery to the customer or pick up by the customer of the
equipment is made. If the delivery is made at a different time or if a specific
time is not established, the Start of the Rental will be the time of actual
delivery. The “End of the Rental” is the date and time at which the equipment
is to be returned, per the reservation. This is regardless of whether the
equipment is returned early. In the case of an extension by mutual agreement,
the “End of the Rental” will be extended accordingly, regardless of when the
equipment is actually returned. If the rental is unilaterally extended by the
customer, the End of the Rental will be the actual date and time of the return.
Reservations and Rental Charges
Reservations may be made
over the phone, in person, through the company’s or third party websites, via
travel agencies or any other legitimate means, with the mutual consent of the
customer and the company. Any reservation made without this consent will be
considered null and void, and any responsible party may be prosecuted by the
company, at its discretion. A reservation made by the customer directly with
the company will be enforceable under all circumstances. The reservation will include
any information required by the company, and will define the Start of the
Rental and the End of the Rental. Charges for any particular rental will be
determined by the company at the time of reservation. This charge will not be
subject to or determined by any fees charged for a previous or later rental,
charged by any other entity or charged for other circumstances. The rental
charge quoted at the time of the reservation may not be altered during the
Rental Period, except for certain situations as determined by the company, and
the customer will be notified in advance of any such change. Additional fees
may be applicable for rental extensions. The rental fees may be paid with
credit/debit cards, cash or any other valid forms of payment.
No Show or Cancellations
Customers may cancel a
reservation at any time by informing the company. For any cancellations made
after the Cancellation due date, All Rental and Delivery fees paid for the
reservation shall be Non-Refundable, and shall be
retained by the company. The Cancellation due date is 72 hours prior to the start
date of reservations or the delivery date if it is before the start of the
rental. This is for reservations with rental periods of 2hrs to 6 days. The
Cancellation due date is 7 days prior to the start date of the rental period
for reservations with longer rental periods. No Shows shall be considered
cancellation with 24 hours, and additional penalties and fees may apply.
Credit Holds and Security Deposits
A security deposit or
credit/debit hold (collectively, “deposit”) is required for all rentals unless
specifically waived. The security deposit is commensurate with the partial
replacement cost of the equipment, as determined by the company. The company
shall strive to refund the deposit within 24 hours of the return of the
equipment.
A valid credit or debit
card information must be provided by the customer before the Start of the
Rental. This deposit will be charged at a reasonable time prior to the Start of
the Rental, as determined by the company. Delivery of the equipment shall not
be made without a deposit. The deposit will be refunded after the end of the
Rental Period, subject to a satisfactory inspection of the returned equipment.
There may be delay of longer than 24 hours if the equipment is returned damaged
or in overly dirty conditions. The customer will be notified of any such
delays. The deposit will be released by the company at the applicable time.
There may be a delay in the time this refund is actually reflected on the
customer’s account because of the customers issuing banks or other intermediate
financial entities which are outside the control of the company, as such the
company cannot be held responsible for any such delays.
Safety and Security
The customer must
maintain the safety and security of the leased equipment during the Rental
Period. This includes keys, any protective and/or tracking devices, or other
removable or non-removable starting/protective mechanisms. For the loss of or
damage to any of these items, there may be additional fees. These items may be
replaced or repaired by the company at its discretion. If the entire equipment,
or part thereof, is lost, stolen or damaged beyond repair during the Rental
Period, the customer will be fully liable for the replacement cost of the
equipment, as determined by the company.
Cleanliness and Hygiene
The company will provide
clean and disinfected equipment to the customer at the Start of the Rental.
Additional reasonable requests made by the customer may be accommodated. If a
customer determines the equipment to be unsatisfactory at the Start of the Rental,
the customer must notify the company immediately. The company may clean, repair
or replace the equipment, and/or issue a refund at its discretion. If the
customer informs the company of any cleanliness problems much later than the
Start of the Rental, at the End of the Rental or afterwards, the company may
refund a portion of the rental fees at its discretion. Additional fees may
apply under some circumstances. If the equipment is returned in a state beyond
normal wear and tear, as determined by the company, cleaning fees may apply, as
solely determined by the company.
Working and Good Quality
The company will provide
fully functional equipment to the customer at the Start of the Rental. If a
customer determines the equipment to be unsatisfactory at the Start of the
Rental, the customer must notify the company immediately. The company may
repair or replace the equipment, and/or issue a refund at its discretion. If a
functionality problem arises with the equipment during the Rental Period, the
customer must immediately notify the company. The company may repair or replace
the equipment, and/or issue a refund at its discretion. If the equipment
malfunctions by no fault of the customer, the customer must notify the company
immediately. The equipment may be repaired or replaced, and/or a partial refund
may be issued. If the customer informs the company of a functionality problem
at a time much later than that at which it arises, at the End of the Rental or
afterwards, the company may choose to issue a refund at its discretion.
Additional fees may apply under certain circumstances. If the equipment is
returned in a state beyond normal wear and tear, as determined by the company,
repair fees may apply, as solely determined by the company.
Battery Charge and Re-charge
The battery for any
powered equipment will be fully charged when it is delivered to the customer.
If the customer finds this not to be the case at the Start of the Rental, the
customer must notify the company immediately. The battery may be charged, repaired
or replaced by the company, at its discretion. The company is not responsible
during the Rental Period for any battery issues caused by the customer. If the
customer notifies the company at the time of any such problem, the battery may
be charged, repaired or replaced, and additional fees may apply. If the battery malfunctions by no fault of
the customer, the customer must notify the company immediately. The battery may
be charged, repaired or replaced, and a refund may be issued at the company’s discretion.
The customer must fully re-charge the battery prior to the End of the Rental.
If the battery is not fully charged at return, additional fees may apply.
Hourly or single day rental customers are not
required to re-charge the battery at
the End of the Rental.
Lost Key
There is a charge of $25
or more for lost or damaged keys.
