OTS Equipment Reservation

  • Date and time equipment will be returned.
  • Time by which the setup should be completed.

  • Whether the equipment is being picked up or delivered to the customer. Note the Support Desk only delivers for quantities of 4 or more, unless labor is requested.
  • Customer must agree to all charges before the rental can be scheduled.
