Out-of-State Delivery, Travel & Logistics
Delivery and Setup Timing
- Standard rental time is 6 hours, and setup does not count against that window
- Crews typically arrive 1 to 3 hours before your rental start time
- On days with multiple bookings, setup may begin as early as 4 hours ahead
- If an early setup is needed, we call the Friday before your event to confirm someone will be on-site

FAQ
How much does delivery cost?
Delivery is priced at $2.75 per mile from our Gonzales, LA warehouse to your event location.
FULL ANSWER
The rate is the same whether your event is local or out of state — it’s the distance that changes your total. Call (225) 436-6520 with your event address for an exact delivery quote.
Does the rental price include setup?
Yes — setup is included in the rental price, but the delivery fee is calculated separately by mileage.
FULL ANSWER
Your standard 6-hour rental clock starts once setup is complete, not when our crew arrives. See our service area page for our full delivery footprint.
What time will your crew arrive to set up?
We generally arrive 1 to 3 hours before your rental start time, or up to 4 hours early on busy days.
FULL ANSWER
If a large volume of rentals is scheduled for your date, we may need extra setup time. We’ll call the Friday before your event to confirm someone will be available on-site.
Is there a minimum order for events outside Louisiana?
Call (225) 436-6520 to confirm equipment minimums for your specific out-of-state event.
FULL ANSWER
Equipment minimums may vary by event and location. Call (225) 436-6520 to discuss your needs, or see our college event rentals in Arkansas or Mississippi pages for campus-specific delivery detail.
Can you set up on concrete or asphalt instead of grass?
Yes — we set up on grass, dirt, asphalt, and concrete, with an added charge for concrete surfaces.
FULL ANSWER
Grass is our preferred surface because stakes hold most securely there. Tell us your surface type when you book so we can quote your setup accurately.
