In order to book your items, we require full payment upfront upon booking, so your Rental Charges are due right away. We accept MasterCard, Visa, AMEX, and Discover. When you place your order and have chosen Credit as your method of payment, it puts a hold on your credit card while we are double checking your order. We just want to make sure that we can accommodate your request before charging your card. Once we confirm the order, the credit card charge will go through.
