Insurance FAQ

Who needs insurance?

The simple truth of the matter is, unless you consider yourself to be a very lucky person, everyone needs some type of insurance.  If your home owner's policy or business policy will cover equipment you rent from us, great.  If not, please consider adding in the optional insurance.


What will the rental insurance cover?


The rental insurance will cover repair or replacement of a lens if it is damaged.  You will then be responsible for paying the deductible which is 10% of the replacement value.  If you do not purchase the optional rental insurance, you will be responsible for the cost of repairing or replacing the damaged lens.

Example:  You rent a lens that has a value of $1,000 and do NOT purchase the rental insurance.  You then damage the lens while you are renting it and the lens requires repairs totaling $300.  You are responsible for the entire $300.
