Frequently Asked Questions

What’s included with my rental?

Delivery, set-up, and takedown for all rented tents and dance floors is bundled into our base quote.

 

Why are there no prices listed for rental services?

We believe that open communication is vital when planning a party, and as such, Area Lakes primarily does pricing on a situational basis. This way, even if you have a straightforward request for an event, any follow-up questions can be addressed too!

 

What is your service area?

We serve the Lake Region area, but more specifically Battle Lake, Ottertail, Perham, Dent, Vergas, Frazee, Wadena, Pelican Rapids, Fergus Falls, Hawley, Cormorant, Detroit Lakes, and Fargo-Moorhead.

 

What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept checks, cash, and most credit cards. A 3% fee will be added for credit card charges.

 

How are fees calculated?

All delivery fees are based on time, distance in terms of mileage, and labor costs.

 

Do I need a deposit to book my equipment reservation?

A deposit of 25% is required at the time of your reservation.

 

What if my number of guests changes?

Count numbers may be changed as your event approaches. Final numbers due Monday before event.

 

How does drop-off/pick-up of equipment work?

Your equipment will be stacked where our vehicles can park and should be returned to this same location after your event is over. Tables and chairs will be stacked here as well unless you wish to pay an additional fee for us to set them up and/or take them down.
