General Conditions of Furniture Rental

Any rental signifies the client’s full agreement to the present general rental conditions and nullifies any document originating with the client even if LIGN’E has been made aware of it.

Article 1
Order

The client must place the order in writing indicating the quantity and the reference numbers of the furniture or equipment rented, the agreed price, the dates, and the rental location.
The order becomes final once the client has signed the order confirmation or the estimate drawn up by LIGN’E with the general rental conditions attached.
The same will be true for any request for modification and/or additional order. Payment for the entire order, including insurance charges, must accompany the order.
Any order which does not include payment cannot be honored.
The order must be received no later than 14 days before the date of the event. Beyond that, it will be increased by 15% of the current rate.
All first-time orders from a new client must also include its business and banking information.
in order to establish its account. If not, the order cannot be accepted by LIGN’E.

Article 2
Changes · Cancellation

Circumstances such as problems arising from availability of inventory and fabrication turn-around time may sometimes lead LIGN’E to substitute furniture and equipment of quality identical to that ordered.
The client is considered to have accepted it unless this replacement material has been refused at the time of receipt of the order confirmation.
The client will remain liable for any order cancelled, even partially, and will be billed for the entire amount.
By special arrangement, LIGN’E may accept a cancellation in writing, which will, in any case, give rise to the billing of a withdrawal penalty equivalent to 20% of the total amount of the order, including tax.
No deductions shall be applied for all fully or partially cancelled equipment or for any change in furniture.

Article 3
Pricing

Two prices are in effect on the website. The first rate (Zone 1) is applied for operations taking place up to 100 km around Toulouse. The second (Zone 2) for operations taking place beyond 100 km around Toulouse.
All prices indicated by LIGN’E, including those indicated on its e-commerce site, are in Euros, excluding taxes, without discount and for a period of less than 8 days.
Transportation is included only for fairs and trade shows taking place within a radius of 30 km of our warehouse and for which LIGN’E is an official supplier.
Labor costs are subject to a free access for the trucks, a delivery on the ground floor or through goods.
Non- standard deliveries (by stair cases, unconventional hours, with li- mited parking access …) will be subject to extra charges.
Extra transport / labor costs will also apply on orders placed after the of- ficial start of the celebration.

Article 4
Flate fees

In cases of payment past due, the client will automatically be assessed, without notification, a late fee equivalent to two times the legal interest rate in effect on the due date.
If one bill payment is missed, all other bills due or not yet due become immediately payable without notification or further procedure.

Article 5
Delivery · Return

Delivery of the equipment rented is performed by LIGN’E under the conditions set forth in the order confirmation forwarded to the client.
The client is responsible for the equipment rented from the time of its delivery until its return. Equipment rented in good condition must be used as intended and the client promises not to treat it or let it be treated in a way which may damage it.
The client is liable for any damage, loss, or theft of the equipment which may occur. The client must make all arrangements necessary to insure against these risks, and generally speaking, against any damage for which he or she will be held responsible.
In case of damage, the client will be liable for paying the cost of repair or replacement of the items if they cannot be repaired.
The equipment or furniture must be restored to LIGN’E empty of all contents as of the close of the event.
LIGN’E will in no case become liable for the loss or damage to objects which were not removed from the furniture rented.
The equipment or furniture remains the exclusive property of LIGN’E and may not be moved, transferred, or lent in any way. Any dispute on the quality or quantity of the rented furniture must be sent by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt within 24 hours after delivery, after this period no dispute will be accepted.
If the recipient refuses partial or full delivery, for any reason what- soever, the principal shall still be liable to the obligation of a 100% settlement of the LIGN’E invoice.

Article 6
Compulsory Insurance fees

An insurance fee will cover the renter against risks of theft (provided that a report has been filed), or damage from the day preceding the official opening until the closing day.
If the renter declines the insurance, he or she assumes full liability in case of damage or loss of the equipment. The nature of some products of our offer (multimedia, coffee machine, water fountain, fridge) such as their specific usage, worthiness or fragility prevents them any insurance coverage.
These products will be under the sole responsibility of the client, from the delivery to the pick-up. In case of theft, loss, or any damage caused to such material, a compensation invoice will be charged to the client, worth 3 times the catalogue price.
For some products, we could ask you for a deposit.

Article 7
Penalty clause

If the client’s insolvency makes a judicial collection necessary, the client promises to pay, in addition to the principal amount, costs, expenses, and fees ordinarily and legally owed by the client, damages set at 20% of the principal amount including taxes.

Article 8
Applicable law and assignment of jurisdiction

Contracts entered into by LIGN’E are subject to French law. In cases of problems of interpretation or execution of the present document, even in cases of appeal concerning guarantee or plurality of defendants, the Toulouse Tribunal of Commerce has sole jurisdiction.
