DELIVERY & PICK UP SERVICE:

Delivery/Pickup charges are based on the ground-level drop-off in the carport/driveway area that is accessible (by hand truck) in the front of your location. At the end of your rental, all items must be neatly stacked in the same condition as delivered & returned to the same location for pickup to avoid additional charges. Premier Service must be contracted before the time of delivery.

If you do not break down your items or do not return them to the same location as left for you as requested and required, your credit card on file will be charged double (2x) the rate-card cost of a premier breakdown of the items.

Basic delivery & pickup service will occur between 8 am and 7 pm every day. During high volume times (May, September, and October), delivery & pick-up times will vary.

Ocean Atlantic Rentals is NOT RESPONSIBLE for items that are damaged, lost, or stolen after delivery is completed.

Find out more about our BASIC and PREMIER services below.


All events have to be delivered, picked up, set up, or broken down during our normal business hours, which are 8 am -7 pm. Event pickups that take place after 7 pm will have an after-hours fee of $200 per crew member required for the item pickup.

If your event times fall outside of our hours of business, please call our office (888-627-3836) to make special arrangements. Service charges begin at $200 and will be adjusted based on time, location, labor required, and equipment involved.

We are happy to accommodate all event requests with appropriate notice.


Ocean Atlantic Event Rentals require a credit card to be on file for the rental of our equipment. The card ensures the return of our equipment at the end of the rental period. If the items should be returned damaged or not returned at all, a replacement charge will be charged to that card.

Should items be missing or broken, you will be notified of all additional charges by phone or email. Missing or Broken items will be billed to the credit card on file if they cannot be replaced/returned within 7 days of rental.


Our equipment can be utilized for a variety of events.

RENTAL ITEM CARE AND RETURN: Upon completion of your event:
•Chairs and Tables must be re-stacked and placed in original delivery location by designated pickup time or premier charges will be incurred.
•China is rented in only full rack quantities (amount per rack is noted on the item line items to make it easy to determine) and should be scraped of all food, rinsed and racked in appropriate racks as it was delivered.
•Silverware is rented in only full set quantities (amount per count is noted on the item line items to make it easy to determine) and should be rinsed with water only and placed back in appropriate delivery container(s).
•Glassware is rented in only full rack quantities (amount per rack is noted on the item line items to make it easy to determine) and should be placed back in appropriate racks (as it was delivered.)
•Linen should be debris free (shaken) and placed in linen bags provided (and if there is not enough room in linen bags, the remainder should be placed in trash bags (please use clear, if possible, to avoid having someone in your group accidentally throw them away by mistake-it happens often) and clearly marked for pickup by our staff.
•Trays, chafing dishes, cake stands, coffee makers and any other food service items should be debris free and clean and placed back in appropriate delivery containers.
Following the above steps will enable us to perform an accurate count upon the return of your rental items and help you to avoid any additional.

Customers or entities on the behalf of the customer, may not use any type of adhesive, nails, screws, pins, etc. to affix items or decor to our products. Customers are responsible for any damages from decorations that they attach, hang, or otherwise utilize for their event when using our equipment. For example, if colors from decorations bleed onto tent tops or walls, wax from candles drips on linens, or holes are made from pinning linens the client is responsible for any cleaning charges that are associated with the said item. If the item cannot be cleaned, then replacement charges will be assessed.


Basic Rental Orders vs Premier Service
Basic Rental Orders pricing is the standard rental rate and includes just the basic rental “use” of the item for the day of your event.

Clients are responsible to transfer rental items to/from planned use area (such as if you are planning to use the items in the back yard, around the pool or on the beach for your ceremony), then bring them back to the same area as delivered by 9am on the scheduled day of pickup. You must neatly stack the items just as they were left for you as well as make sure all items are accounted for and none have been left in the house or at another place on the property.

Premier Pricing is for Ocean Atlantic Rentals to provide a single setup and a single breakdown of equipment in addition to the basic cost of the rental item. Linen, dishware, glassware and flatware ARE NOT items set up by us and additional table/chair setups/moves will incur additional charges.

Premier Service Contracts are scheduled in advance, on a case-by-case basis for Ceremonies, Receptions under tents and other specific approved covered scenarios. We do not setup/breakdown other vendor/venues equipment.


The showroom is open Monday through Friday 9 am-5 pm in the Off Season and then Monday through Saturday from 9 am-5 pm during Peak season months. Walk-ins are welcome, however, due to certain high-volume times, appointments are appreciated so that we can give you ample time and attention. Appointments are scheduled 9:30 am-4 pm daily. Contact us to schedule an appointment. You can email us at [email protected] to schedule an appointment.


Delivery will take place the day before the event (when allowed by home or venue) and is done during the times of 8 am to 7pm. This time window may be extended during high volume time periods.

Equipment pickup takes place the day after the event (when allowed by home or venue) and is done during the times of 8 am to 7pm (times will vary during high volume time periods). It is required to place items back in the same location and in the same fashion as delivered to you by 9am on the scheduled day of pickup. It is understood that should you not hold to these terms, that the credit card on file will be charged a rate of 2 x the cost of a premier breakdown fee for the items.

*Note: Due to high volume time periods, we will ask what days you have the home/venue rented and will determine the delivery/pickup date schedule based on contracted events. We will adjust your event delivery/pickup contract to best accommodate based on the overall schedule of events for that time period. This means that your delivery/pickup may be done earlier or later than the day before or after at no additional fee if our logistics department determines it is necessary.

Please understand this extended delivery and pickup time frame is a convenience and does not guarantee any specific time of arrival/pickup or usage other than the day of your event.

Starting 7/1/2021-OAER now has a $500 order minimum (before fees and taxes) required to be met in order to be scheduled for delivery/pickup. Other areas that are notated have a higher rental rate that must be met. If it does not state a specific amount but says a minimum is required beside it, we will let you know when you submit your wish list if you have met the required amount.

For events that do not meet this requirement, clients are scheduled for a Customer Pick Up and Return of the requested rental items at our Ocean Atlantic Event Rentals Warehouse, which is located at 105 Shores Ave, Point Harbor, NC 27964.

*Some requested items may not be available for customer pickup/return, if so, we will do our best to recommend other items to meet your needs.
