I'm Ready to Rent, Now What?

Our one-day rental period runs a generous 44 hours. Let's say your shoot is on a Wednesday. Pick-up your equipment on Tuesday after 2:00pm, Shoot all day Wednesday (Shoot all night too if you want) and just have the equipment back by 10:00am on Thursday morning...All that for a one day charge, what a deal!

If your shoot schedule doesn't fit the above scenario, don't worry, just call and give us your schedule and we'll help you figure out the number of rental days. Most producers are surprised by how reasonable our rental periods are.

Before your production begins, figure out what you need and when you need it, and then call or email us. You can put equipment on hold, with no obligation, while you plan the logistics for your production. If all you need is a quote for your budget, that’s fine. Call and we'll help you figure out an equipment budget.

If you have production insurance, ask your insurance broker to fax us a Certificate of Insurance. Video Gear Rentals should be named as loss payee and additional insured. If you need short term insurance, there are several companies that offer short term insurance at reasonable rates. Give us a call and we can fax or email you a list of brokers. For rental of equipment with a replacement value below $5,000.00 you can be self-insured by using a credit card to secure the equipment. If you’re not sure what to do about insurance, give us a call and we’ll offer you some options.

On the day of your rental bring your driver’s license and credit card to the Video Gear Rentals office in Sorrento Valley. There is some paperwork to sign and you should spend a few minutes checking through your order. Make sure you have gels, gaff tape, and other expendables so you’re not caught short. Once that’s done you’re set and ready to go shoot!
