How to rent equipment and draft a rental agreement.
Whether you want to open you own Jet Ski rental shop, need to use some temporary scaffolding or simply want to rent a car while yours is out for repair, you’ll need to use an Equipment Rental Agreement. These agreements can cover almost anything, and can be used by anyone who wants to rent equipment, be they renter or owner. No matter if it’s a car, computer or camera, if the owner of the property is letting someone else use that property, and charging them a fee to do it, they’ll need an Equipment Rental Agreement.
- WHAT DOES AN EQUIPMENT RENTAL AGREEMENT DO? Exactly what it sounds like it does. It allows two parties to enter into an agreement where one party uses the other party’s property for a specific time. The Rental Agreement states how much the rental costs, how long it lasts, who can use the equipment. It’s a simple, yet essential document whenever you want to rent equipment, vehicles or other non-real estate properties.
- WHO CAN ENTER A RENTAL AGREEMENT? Usually, anyone can rent or allow to be rented a piece of property. With age requirements, there may be security deposits, insurance information or other necessary conditions that must be met before the equipment can be used. If more than one person is going to use the equipment, they will probably have to give the rental agent the required information as well.
- HOW DO I USE AN EQUIPMENT RENTAL AGREEMENT? All you need to do to use these agreements is make sure they express your needs. If you are renting the equipment, you’ll want to keep an eye out for late fees and other clauses that can cost you more money than the first rental amount. If you are the owner of the property, make sure the renters know about and understand everything in the agreement before you rent to them.
- WHAT NEEDS TO BE WRITTEN INTO THE AGREEMENT? Whenever renting equipment, both parties will want to make sure their interests are protected. If you are an owner, you need to protect yourself against liability, make sure you consider potential damage or loss of value, as well as many other factors. If you are renting the equipment, you’ll want to know what you need to do if you need extra time, or how and when to return the equipment so you don’t incur a late fee.
- CAN’T I JUST MAKE AN ORAL AGREEMENT? Of course you can, but you’d be better off with a written one. Oral agreements are notoriously difficult to enforce, not to mention people will often forget, or remember differently. The number of disputes that have come from two people remembering an event differently is many. All you have to do to prevent this from happening is make sure you have a proper written agreement, one that everyone can understand.
Renting equipment for fun or work is a simple, cost-effective way of using something you don’t want to buy. Renting equipment to others can be a great way to start a business. Either way, if you are renting to others or renting something for your own use, you need to make sure the terms of any Equipment Rental Agreement are clear and understandable. You’ll be glad you did.
