General Rental Terms and Conditions
Preamble: Any rental constitutes unconditional acceptance by the customer of these general rental terms and conditions, excluding any other document
Payment / Security Deposit
- The rental fee is payable when the equipment leaves our premises.
- For all orders, a security deposit in the form of a check in the name of the invoiced customer, credit card deposit, or bank transfer is required before the start of the rental. The amount of the security deposit depends on the value of each item and is indicated on the quote. This security deposit will be returned to the customer after inspection upon return of the furniture and receipt of payment for services. Les 2 Ailleurs & C° reserves the right to request a bank check or bank guarantee.
- Any order not accompanied by its security deposit and payment may not be honored.
Liability and Insurance
- The renter must insure the rented equipment against rental risks with a notoriously solvent company. The insurance will cover the equipment particularly for transport, fire, and theft. The renter will collect and return the equipment at their expense to the premises of 'Les 2 Ailleurs & C°'.
- The renter bears all risks (loss, theft, partial or total destruction, etc.) related to the equipment from the time of collection until return to the premises of 'Les 2 Ailleurs & C°'.
- The equipment remains the full and exclusive property of 'Les 2 Ailleurs & C°'. The customer is therefore prohibited from transferring it or allowing it to be seized by any of their creditors. The renter may neither sublet nor transfer their rental rights.
Condition of Equipment and Transport
- An assessment of the equipment provided is carried out and noted on the delivery note by 'Les 2 Ailleurs & C°' before the start of the rental. It is the responsibility of customers, through the persons collecting on their behalf, to verify the items and add remarks if desired. The condition of the equipment is considered accepted by both parties at the start of the rental.
- For collections made by the customer themselves or their agents at our premises, it is imperative that handling and transport be carried out by a professional furniture transporter equipped with straps, blankets, and other necessary protection. Otherwise, 'Les 2 Ailleurs & C°' reserves the right to refuse the departure of the equipment and will notify the ordering customer, who must take appropriate measures.
Use / Repair / Loss or Breakage of Rented Equipment
- The customer agrees to use the rented equipment in accordance with its usual purpose, to do nothing or allow nothing that could damage it, and to provide the normal and necessary maintenance to keep it in good working condition. The customer is responsible for any deterioration, loss, or theft of the equipment.
- No transformation or modification may be made to the rented equipment.
- At the end of the rental, missing or destroyed equipment will be invoiced at its replacement value. Damaged equipment will be invoiced at the cost of its repair. In both cases, 'Les 2 Ailleurs & C°' reserves the right to use all or part of the security deposit to cover the amount of these invoices.
- Repairs to the equipment can only be carried out upon decision by 'Les 2 Ailleurs & C°' and by a service provider designated by them.
Intellectual Rights
- The rental does not include any rights that may be due to the author of the rented equipment or their beneficiaries, in application of legislation on literary, artistic, and intellectual property, trademarks and patents, etc., regarding rights of publication, reproduction, representation, etc.
- It is the responsibility of the renter and them alone to request and obtain prior agreement from the author or their beneficiaries for any use, whatever its nature, of the rented equipment objects, involving the aforementioned rights (*) the replacement value is the market value for similar or equivalent equipment, or the value of its manufacture. As a last resort, this value is established by 'Les 2 Ailleurs & C°' but cannot exceed 20 times the rental price for a two-week period.
