Is a deposit required before renting gear or equipment?
Each rental item has a deposit, which is due in full at the time of rental with a credit card or additional check. An ID card is also valid for deposit for Campus Point. Your deposit will be returned when all rental equipment is returned and any late fees, damage and/or wet/dirty fees have been assessed and paid in full. It may take up to one week to assess the damage fees. Campus departments using a recharge will not be required to place a deposit.
How many items can one person rent at a time?
There is no limit. We allow one person to rent various items or multiple of the same item at once (e.g. an individual can rent more than one tent, stove, etc.). Adventure Pass members are limited to one of each item and can rent additional items at the rental rate.
