(Almost) Everything you ever wanted to know about rentals.
Do I need insurance to rent?
Maybe. Insurance is required if the full replacement cost value of your order is over $5,000. For example, suppose you rent a lens kit that has a replacement value of $20,000. In that case, you will be required to present a Certificate of Insurance (COI) that covers you up to that replacement value, but if you rent a C-stand with a replacement value of $150, you will need to sign a rental agreement.
We strongly suggest carrying insurance for all of your rentals. This will protect you in case of theft or any mishaps on set.
For rentals that require insurance coverage, we’ll need you to present a COI that meets the following criteria:
The Renter or represented Company must be listed as the Insured
The Film DPT, LLC must be listed as the Certificate Holder
Please contact us for our current address
The Film DPT, LLC must be listed as Loss Payee and Additional Insured on Renter’s Property Insurance and Commercial General Liability Insurance.
Policies should contain Primary, Non-Contributory, and Waiver of Subrogation Endorsements in favor of The Film DPT, LLC.
Property Insurance must cover Rented Equipment.
Policies must cover, at a minimum, the Replacement Value of the Equipment
All Exclusions for Theft from an Unattended Vehicle must be removed
A sample COI for equipment can be viewed here.
