All equipment remains the property of Orange County Party Rentals. The customer assumes full responsibility from the time the equipment is delivered or picked up until it is returned and processed.
Customers are responsible for loss, theft, disappearance, vandalism, misuse, neglect, improper transportation or storage, and damage caused by water, sprinklers, moisture, weather, or unsafe use. Equipment may not be moved from its original delivery location, transferred, loaned, subleased, modified, or have identifying labels removed without written permission. Rental charges apply regardless of whether the equipment is used.

Tent stakes may be driven into the ground, and OCPR is not responsible for damage to underground utilities.
Personal belongings, venue property, and third-party rentals must be clearly marked and removed before pickup. Claims involving missing or returned items must be supported by verifiable evidence, such as time-stamped photos or videos.
The Will Call Service Fee is not insurance. It does not cover loss, theft, negligence, misuse, missing items, excessive cleaning, water or weather damage, permanent stains, structural damage, or repair and replacement costs. Customers assume the risks associated with possessing and using the equipment and agree to indemnify and hold OCPR harmless from related claims.
