Do I need to call and schedule the equipment for pickup?

You will receive a call off number from our office confirming the equipment is off rent and you are no longer being charged for it. To ensure there are no additional charges please make sure to fuel it (double check; if it is diesel/gas, we charge $7.50/gal) and park it in a spot that is accessible for our driver. Once scheduled for pick up we will dispatch a driver as soon as we have one available.
