Consumer Agreement

Rockabye Baby Rentals, LLC; hereafter known as Rockabye – Terms and Conditions – Rental Agreement – Customer is bound by the terms and conditions of this agreement, by providing payment information customer accepts and agrees to the rental agreement, signature is not required.

1. TERMS OF DELIVERED EQUIPMENT: Customer assumes all risk of loss or damage to the Equipment upon receipt by Rockabye or a designated agent to Customer, and Customer shall be solely responsible for any such loss of or damage to the Equipment until the return of the Equipment to Rockabye’s personnel or designated location. By accepting receipt of equipment, you agree that you or your designated agent examined it, saw it in operation (if appropriate), and are aware of its condition. Under no circumstance may customers remove rented equipment from the delivery location or outside the order details. Rockabye forbids rental equipment from being taken outside the USA. Changes, upgrades and additions to orders will be charged to the customer’s credit card on file and are payable immediately. A delivery/pick-up fee applies each time we attempt to deliver or pick-up at a location. If customer does not have equipment available for pick-up at the time our staff arrives to collect equipment, an additional fee will be applied equivalent to the original delivery/pick-up fee for rescheduling an additional pick-up of items. We will do our best to make the rescheduled pick-up on the same date, but cannot guarantee this can happen on peak dates, such as surrounding holidays. It is best to have 2 separate orders when you have 2 separate delivery dates. Customer assumes all responsibility for reviewing products on the Rockabye website to assure the correct and appropriate items are on the order. Changes prior to rental start can be made, however changes following receipt of a rental order will be subject to availability and will not be provided until payment for the difference is made.

CRIB DELIVERY & STAIRS: Due to Federal requirements on crib manufacturing, the weights of full size cribs have increased significantly. This makes the transport of cribs up & down stairs dangerous for a single individual; with a high risk for personal injury or property damage. Rockabye must take into consideration the safety of our personnel, as well as, the need to minimize the potential for damage to the properties where we deliver.  Rockabye personnel cannot ‘deliver to’ or ‘pickup from’ upper floors unless an appropriately sized elevator is available.  Cribs must be returned to ground level prior to customer departure from the property.  If no safe location exists on ground level at delivery, customer will need to call upon arrival to schedule a second delivery (second delivery fee will apply). Cribs left on upper floors upon departure will require re-scheduling the pickup at a time that two staff members are available. This will result in an additional $100 fee to the customer. Wood or Metal Cribs are not available for Self Pick Up / Self Return in any of our locations. All Cribs require Delivery by Rockabye staff.

2. SELF PICK UP / SELF RETURN: Rockabye does not charge a fee beyond rental and tax for self pickup/self return of allowable items at our designated location. There are no refunds provided for No Show/No Call, should the customer or their designated agent fail to pick up items at the designated location during business hours. Rental fees continue to accrue until equipment is returned to Rockabye’s possession. Due to the nature of the business, Rockabye does not guarantee the ability to reschedule a time at the customer’s preferred date or time; but will offer alternate available times/dates. Cribs are not available for Self Pick Up / Self Return. All cribs require delivery.

3. REPLACEMENT COSTS: Replacement cost of equipment is based on full retail value plus applicable taxes and shipping costs.
