Q. What precautions should I take when renting linens?

A. You must take precautions when using candles. Any linen returned with wax on it will incur extra charges for cleaning, or replacement. Wax damage is considered abuse, and not covered by the Damage Waiver. Try using a decorative mirror under the candle to avoid spillage. All candles have a tendency to drip whether they are dripless or not. Also, be careful when blowing out candles. Hot wax can be blown across the table if you are not careful and permanently damage the linens. Also, be careful when removing the candleholder, as to not spill any hot wax onto the tablecloth.

Do not put wet linens in plastic bags as permanent mildew stains will occur. To avoid this problem, put the linens back on the hangers or in the cloth bags provided. Linens returned with mildew stains on them will incur a replacement charge.

Any linens showing signs of abuse, i.e., burns, tears, mildew, wax or being used to wipe up spills, stepped on, as well as being soiled beyond cleaning will incur extra charges for cleaning or replacement. Please note that signs of abuse will be up to Canton Chair Rental's discretion and are not covered by the Damage Waiver. If linen is lost or stolen, you will be charged for replacement in additional to the rental.
