I just wanted to say Thankyou. You’re pretty accomplished, maybe not all your goals have been met, but you’ve probably successfully reached a number of your goals. With that said, it’s kind and generous of you to share a lot of the knowledge in which one cannot learn in a school but rather through experience. Your tips and advise are usually more than just that; they’re lessons. Thankyou again.
We have a rental program. We have their credit card. We use a virtual terminal but the rental program has the option to run cards. Rental program sends receipts.
Try out good shuffle pro. It’s an online one. Subscription though, but has a lot of features. Goodshuffle Pro - please use this link for a free demo - pro.goodshuffle.com/the-tent-guy/ RentMaster is a one time buy but lacks a lot of the features.
Per event. But if the event is more than a few days the rate changes. 1.25x, 1.5x or 1.75x. Depends on duration they need it for. If it’s a month, that changes the rate, several months another rate.
Good morning, I purchased about 100 white chairs for 6$ a piece, they had rust and scrapes on them and kind of yellowish. I washed, scraped and spray painted them with rustoleum. I see some of the spots on the chairs that didn't come out perfect. What do customers care about or notice when it comes to chair rentals?
@@thetentguy Thks so much def can’t make the show but I’ll go online and order the products bring they on sale. This is something new I’m embarking on. I got 5k to invest I just want to start with tables chairs & eventually tents by summer 2022. Any advice on any of the three? I watch all your videos but as far as what size rent the most so I can order. I live in Augusta Ga which has about 200k in population and as u said if ppl are doing the same thing your doing it’s a need for it.

Awesome!
Thanks, for the amazing content 🙏
Great video! What about receipts? How do you charge the clients? To guarantee that your chairs and tables don't get lost.

I do deliveries in a smaller area in chicago and that’s how I insure and create reliable service.
Do you have a program you recommend to send out for the agreement ?

I’ve seen some chairs but the size of the seat is 15.5 kinda small, what size seat is normal?
Thinking about starting a rental business
When u say u rent them for 2.5 . Is it 2.5 a day or per event?
What I mean by event could be upto a week as well
Per event. But if the event is more than a few days the rate changes. 1.25x, 1.5x or 1.75x. Depends on duration they need it for. If it’s a month, that changes the rate, several months another rate.
For starters how many white folding chair to start with?
100 is good. Can handle a small wedding, or 2 back yard events.

Clean seats and backs mostly.
Where u got them?
Where did you buy them?
Great video! From where did you get your shelves?
Just a local guy. Pallet racking.
Hey man do you think the Hercules model for the fanback chair is the best fanback chair to get?
I have not used it but hear that it’s the best. Never heard anything bad.
What is the name of the company where you got the chairs from quite not understand the name? thanks
Palmer Snyder

I’d start with 20x20 and 20x30 pole tents and one 20x20 high peak frame. Good luck!!!
where do you buy your chairs from ?
Palmer Snyder.
Where can I buy the chairs you have? Do you have a link? What kind of assest tag do you put on your chairs to know they belong to you?
I buy them from Palmer Snyder.
I get stickers made for the bottom with my info in them.
@@thetentguy thank you
Love the info brother
Dang that's a nice 4 wheel hand truck. Where'd you pick it up?

How long have you been in this chair/table rental business for?
Since 2005
Can I be successful if I only have 7k to start everything I need? Can I build and succeed starting with only chairs and tables
Yes you can. That’s a pretty good amount to start with. Many people start with just tables and chairs snd add tents later.
All this stuff you rent is really cheap sheeesh nobody in Chicago would rent that , you are blessed to live in a area that’s not so competitive.
🤣
What are you talking about. Every rental company around the US has these basic chairs.
How much were the long tables ?
At the time around 100. Gone up since then post Covid.
Palmer Synder chairs have sticker on bottom that tells u when the chair should be replaced so not forever (observation) Adam. Thanks
Lol. Yeah, but if taken care of they will last. I’ve got great quality ones from 16 years ago.
Would you recommend the white padded chairs from bizzchair
Probably not. They are going to be cost effective but not last. I would recommend Palmer Snyder.
