- How it Works -
Picnic & Sleepover themed settings rentals
We craft themed party settings by selecting all the elements that allow us to create a cohesive aesthetic look. We often hand-craft many of the party props to achieve a “one-of-a-kind” look. Our rentals consist of themed settings. We set everything up and breakdown. we also offer an DIY cheaper option.
SETUP & BREAKDOWN
We will set everything up on the day of the event. When the event’s start time is before 11:00 a.m., we can set it up the day before.
The space designated for the setup needs to be free of furniture and clean at the time when we arrive. We will not be responsible for moving furniture, trampolines or clearing out the area.
For outdoor picnic setups, the sprinkler system must be turned off the day before of the event in order to avoid a wet lawn.
Everything included in the setting must be returned in the same good condition as it was received and it will be picked up next day. There will be a Late pick-up fee for any pick-up after 6:00 pm.
We are responsible for disassembling our setting and picking it up only. Please be aware that we do not clean up party trash.
RENTALS PRICING
Prices vary depending mainly on the theme you choose from our current options. We have premium themed settings and also classic settings. All our premium themed settings include a considerable number of props, string lights, throw pillows and decoration, which is reflected in the price. We also offer classic setups with fewer or no props, and simpler decor but still dreamy and beautiful, keeping our high-end look.
Personalized options and add-ons increase the final cost. We can also work on a completely new theme or party decor. On this last scenario, pricing is on a case by case basis.
There is also a transportation fee to some towns. There might be an additional fee when the setup takes place in rooms or backyards that are considerably distant from the driveway or we have to move our stuff by elevator.
CONTRACT & PAYMENY
A 40% deposit is required to book an event. The deposit secures the date and time. In order to confirm your event, a contract must be signed along with the deposit. Terms and conditions are found within the contract.
We understand that circumstances can change and sometimes it is necessary to cancel or reschedule an event. Therefore, we want to be flexible and understanding with our clients. However, it is also important that we are clear with our policies to avoid confusion. If the client cancels the reservation prior to the day of the event, or there is a weather alert that prevents the event from developing normally, THE MONEY WILL NOT BE RETURNED. RentaTeepee is committed to putting all it’s effort into rescheduling the event to a date that is possible for both parties.
CANCELLATION POLICY
Payments-deposits, cancellations, refunds?
A 40% (non-refundable and transferable) deposit is required upon booking, that secures your date, time and theme. Your party is not booked until the 40% deposit and signed contract are received. The remaining 60% balance and damage deposit must be paid in full 5 days prior to the event/party Cancellations-obviously we would prefer you reschedule your event at the next available time that works for both you and Rent a teepee.

We can travel outside of our service area. However, the transportation fee might be significantly higher than the one applicable to the service area.
BUILDING POLICY
Our settings are of a considerable size and volume, unloading and taking them to an apartment, might be subject to the building policies for moving. Most of our teepee poles are 8 feet long and need to be moved by elevator. We want to avoid circumstances that slow things down and we also want to be sure that moving our stuff goes as smoothly as possible for everyone in the building. For this end, we would ask you to check and get any necessary permit or approval from the building management office that allow us to use the cargo/moving elevator and move our stuff on the hallways.
