Terms of service.
Effective Date: 12/10/2024
ORDERS. For order confirmation, owner For the Table Rentals (“For the Table”) must receive renter’s (“Client”) signed Event Agreement, Payment Form, and Terms and Conditions Agreement. For the Table requires a 30% initial payment of the Job Total (listed at the bottom of the Event Agreement) to secure inventory availability and book the order. The remaining balance of the order is due 14 days prior to the day of the event. If the order is booked within 30 days of the event, payment is required in full to confirm the order. Check payments must be received by For the Table’s business office 10 business days before the event date. Both initial and final payment amounts are non-refundable. Should the item total decrease below the initial amount (prior to 30 days before the event) or final payment (30 days or less before the event), the client may add alternate rental items to reach the paid balance.
CUSTOM ORDERS. All confirmed special, custom, and/or acquisition orders are non-refundable and cannot be canceled by the Client at any point, nor can quantities or sizes change. When custom and/or acquisition orders are placed, the total order value may not be changed to be less than the job total. Discounts do not apply to the custom and/or acquisition components of an order.
DESIGN CONFIDENTIALITY. All designs, diagrams, design boards, photos, and concepts provided by For the Table are proprietary and confidential and may not be disseminated without For the Table’s express written consent. Excessive change requests or redesigns, including the preparation of design boards or styling, may result in additional costs.
CONTENT RELEASE. Client hereby grants For the Table Rentals the right to use and publish inventory setup photographs taken before events involving For the Table Rentals. This includes, but is not limited to, use on the company's website, social media platforms, blogs, promotional materials, and other marketing channels.
DELIVERY. For the Table requires all delivery details upfront to quote delivery and pickup charges accurately. Additional fees may incur if the provided information is inaccurate when originally quoting. For the Table requires a 3-hour delivery window on all orders. If a shorter window is required, we can accommodate for a fee of $75 for a 2-hour window or $150 for exact time deliveries.
Pickups or deliveries scheduled at or after 11:30 pm or before 7 am will incur a $150 fee.
Additionally, For the Table delivery quotes are increased for challenging logistics like long walks from the loading dock to the drop-off point or elevator/stairs, etc. Please discuss with your For the Table representative to assess based on venue and timing.
For the Table delivery team members are not permitted to move any furniture that does not belong to For the Table and will only move For the Table furniture one additional time if the client changes their mind about the location. Any additional changes may incur an additional fee of $75/hr.
If additional setup services are requested or required beyond standard delivery, an Event Setup Fee will be applied. The fee amount will be determined based on the scope of work and will be communicated to the client in advance.
SAFETY. Safety being of paramount concern, it is explicitly stipulated that the Client shall indemnify and hold For the Table harmless in the event that For the Table, in its sole discretion, determines that prevailing working conditions are unreasonably hazardous to the extent that the safe continuation of delivery, setup, or retrieval operations is compromised. Such hazardous conditions may encompass, but are not limited to, instances such as the conveyance of goods during weather conditions marked by extreme heat advisories, instances of flooding, the presence of impaired or impassable roadways, unreported impediments related to staircases or elevators, and other analogous circumstances.
In the interest of preserving the well-being of our personnel, it is earnestly requested that the Client ensures full disclosure of all potential impediments or concerns well in advance. This proactive sharing of information will enable us to effectuate the delivery and retrieval of your inventory in a prompt and expeditious manner.
LIGHTING/INSTALLATION HEIGHT RESTRICTIONS. For the Table will not perform any installations requiring a ladder above 15 feet. For the Table further will not install or hang chandeliers above 15 feet. If the ceiling or hanging point is higher than 15 feet, the client is responsible for arranging the installation outside of For the Table. For the Table is not responsible for providing extension cords or the power source for our lighting. In addition, we are not responsible for cord management (such as taping down cords or providing cord covers).
WAITING TIME. If we arrive for a delivery or pick-up and are forced to wait more than 30 minutes, a labor charge of $75 per half hour, per truck will be applied. Wait times after 12:30 am increase to $150 per half hour.
CA MANDATORY REST BREAK.
California law requires employers to provide their employees with meal and rest breaks during their workday. If an employer denies its employees the opportunity to take a break or requests that they work through their break, then the employees are owed "Premium Pay."
In the event that you request our team to work through their scheduled lunch break, or deny them the opportunity to take this break, there will be additional fees applied to the project. These fees are necessary to comply with California's Meal Break Law and to ensure the well-being of our team members. We value our team's well-being and want to ensure that they are following the law and receiving the necessary breaks during their workday. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.
WILL-CALL. For the Table encourages will-call pickups from the Costa Mesa location during the hours of Monday – Friday, 9 am - 4 pm. Will-Call orders placed 24 hours or less from the pickup date will incur an additional 10% rush fee. The minimum order size for Will-Call is $200. Will-Call orders booked less than 30 days out have no minimum.
For Will-Call/pickup orders, the Client is responsible for returning rented items in their original condition and on the scheduled return date as stated on the Event Agreement. Items returned late will incur an additional non-refundable charge of the rental rate per item for each day that elapses after the stated return date on the invoice until the items are returned. If a change in delivery or special pick-up is arranged, the Client is responsible for the additional charge. Items due for return that have not been received by For the Table 14 days past the stated return date on the Event Agreement are deemed missing/unreturned and shall incur a non-refundable replacement charge.
CHANGES AND/OR ADDITIONS TO ORDERS. Any change requests made to inventory, times, dates, or specifics of delivery or strike can result in additional costs. Changes made to an order within 10 calendar days of the event will incur a $150 service charge. Changes made to an order within 36 hours of the delivery will incur a $300 service charge. No changes can be made to an existing order within 24 hours of delivery. Unused inventory is non-refundable. Any additions or changes to orders within 30 days of the event (after the order balance has been paid in full) will require a final signed updated Event Agreement and payment in full.
LAST MINUTE ORDERS. New orders confirmed within 10 calendar days of the event will incur a $75 RUSH fee. Any new delivery orders confirmed within 3 business days prior to the event will incur a RUSH fee of $150. No new delivery orders will be accepted within 24 hours of an event.
SHIPPING. Shipped items will incur a 10% packaging fee in addition to shipping charges. Shipped items must be returned within 3 business days after the event. Items not returned within 3 days will incur a multi-day charge. For the Table is not responsible for items damaged in transit by UPS, FedEx, or a similar shipping company. The Client must file a claim directly for reimbursement.
FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED. Our inventory is considered available until an initial payment amount of 30% of the Job Total and signed Event Agreement and Terms and Conditions Agreement have been received.
CANCELLATION. Cancellation must be made in writing to For the Table. If the Client cancels for any reason, For the Table will keep all payment amounts to compensate for incurred costs and loss of inventory rental income.
ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN GUEST COUNTS. We acknowledge that guest numbers may fluctuate and allow the Client to modify their product selection up to 30 days prior to the event. However, the total value of product rentals cannot be reduced by more than 10% from the initial signed order. Full payment will be required for the remaining 90% of the original contract value.
INCLEMENT WEATHER. The Client is held fiscally responsible for all damages caused by inclement and unforeseen weather. For the Table mandates that no rental inventory be unusually exposed to the elements, planned or unforeseen. If inventory cannot be moved to an enclosed, protected shelter, the Client is responsible for making their best efforts to ensure proper covering of all inventory belonging to For the Table. At the Client’s expense, For the Table can provide labor to remain on-site to relocate inventory into a protected space or for multi-day events where inventory is left outdoors overnight.
INDEMNITY. Both parties agree to indemnify and hold each other and their respective agents, employees, and assignees harmless from and against any and all third-party claims, actions, causes of action, demands, rights, damages of any kind, costs, loss of profit, expenses, and compensation whatsoever (“Claims”), in any way arising from, or in connection with the inventory rented including, without limitation, as a result of its use, maintenance, set-up, break-down, or possession, irrespective of the cause of the claim, except in the case of the indemnifying party’s sole gross negligence or willful misconduct, from the time the inventory arrives at the event until the inventory is picked up by For the Table employees and/or agents.
ASSUMPTION OF RISK. The Client is fully aware and acknowledges there is a risk of injury or damage arising out of the Client’s use or operation of the items rented hereunder and hereby elects to voluntarily enter into this Terms and Conditions Agreement and assumes all the above risks of injury or damage. The Client agrees to release and discharge For the Table from any and all responsibility or liability for such injury or damage arising out of the Client’s use or operation of the inventory.
AS-IS CONDITION. The Client and For the Table both acknowledge that inventory furnished by For the Table is incidental to that which is used and/or worn and/or vintage. Products are furnished on an “as-is” basis without warranties of any kind.
NECESSARY SUBSTITUTIONS. For the Table deals in unique and hard-to-find furniture and tabletop items. Occasionally, the need arises to substitute rental items with like items due to damage from a previous event. For the Table reserves the right to make reasonable substitutions when necessary (which shall not constitute a breach of this agreement) and shall inform the Client of such substitutions prior to the event when possible. If no substitution is available, the rental fee for the affected rental item(s) will be refunded to the Client.
CANDLES. Any items damaged by candle wax will be the Client’s financial responsibility. Live candles purchased from For the Table are taxable and do not come with any sheaths to prevent wax from dripping. For the Table is not responsible for the candle policies of other rental companies, vendors, or venues or damages to other rentals or property from candles. Taper candles and flameless taper candles require candle putty to ensure a proper fit with candlesticks.
DAMAGED, MISSING, LOST, LATE-RETURNED ITEMS. The Client is responsible for item count and condition at the close of the event. If neither the Client nor the Client’s assignee is available during pickup or does not sign the Inventory Sheet, it is agreed that For the Table’s count and condition of items will be honored, and the Client will be responsible for any items missing/unreturned and/or for damage incurred by the Client and/or Client’s agents, employees, assignees, suppliers, sub-lessors, and sub-renters. For the Table’s acceptance of inventory is not a waiver of claims For the Table may have against the Client for missing/unreturned and/or damaged items.
CLEANING FEE. Any china, glassware, or flatware returned dirty will be charged $1.00 per item. All items must be scraped and rinsed and repacked in the containers they were delivered in. There will be a replacement fee for any containers not returned to For the Table.
PACK OUT. The Client is responsible for ensuring all small items are gathered and placed in one central location at pickup. For the Table’s delivery team will not be responsible for searching for items. Fees will be applied if the delivery team needs to locate items during pickup. A minimum fee of $75 or 7% of the rental price of the appropriate items on the order will be charged. The pack-out fee will be calculated as 7% of the total cost of decor and dining ware on the order. Additional charges will be incurred if items are not packed in the original crates and bags they were delivered in.
For the Table reserves the right to charge the full replacement cost of missing/unreturned or damaged items. For the Table allows 5 business days for the customer to locate and recover any missing items. If inventory is found and returned in proper condition, For the Table will evaluate and process refunds and credits on a case-by-case basis. For the Table may charge the credit card on file for any amounts due for missing or damaged items.
EVENT SETUP FEE. For the Table reserves the right to apply an additional event setup fee if extensive or complex arrangements are required beyond the agreed-upon scope of delivery and standard placement. This fee will be determined based on the complexity of the setup and communicated to the Client before the event.
