SITE AND DELIVERY LOCATION

Typically Tents are set up Tuesdays, Wednesdays or Thursdays (weather pending) and some times on Fridays, for standard deliveries (no tents) they are done in the mornings or evening during the weekdays (Not Friday evenings), Most deliveries are determined one week prior the client’s event(s) and determined with weather conditions in mind, as tent set ups will only be done with proper and safe conditions. Peterborough Tent requires a 3 day Window to set up any tent(s) now in certain cases we can try to set a specific time, but you must understand that if this is the day of or the day before your event and unsafe conditions arise or bad weather rolls in your tent will NOT be set up and no refund will be credited back. (this is the reason why we ask for a 3-day window for set up.)

Please be sure your site is ready and accessible (i.e. lawns mowed, vehicles out of the way, etc.) before our delivery staff arrive. Clients will be responsible for all Permits (if required) and all locates to be performed no later than one week prior to your event and/or have the property owner present the day of delivery and inform Peterborough Tent and Event Rentals of the existence of any underground utilities (ie: phone or gas, septic system, artesian well, sprinkler systems, etc.) Please understand that tents must be staked/anchored down for safety proposes. Stakes and/or anchor equipment range from 24” spikes to 42” spikes. If locates are not done prior to the delivery date of your tent the client/property owners must assume all responsibility for all damage to underground services and could result in the tent being unable to go up at the tent rentals staff discretion.

All deliveries and pick-ups must have access for our truck and trailers. If the delivery driver feels that they cannot access the delivery/pick up location with the safety of our staff and equipment in mind, our driver will determine a safe and adequate drop off location.
