Rental Solution for Crowd Control

Stanchion Rental Quotes in Calgary

We quote every order rather than publishing a rate card, because the same equipment costs a different amount at six posts and at six hundred. This page explains exactly what the figure is built from, so nothing on your quote arrives as a surprise.

Starting rates

Each factor below moves the figure. Your quote is built from them and reflects your quantities, your dates and your address.

Stanchion rental starting rates
QuantityThe main oneSix posts at a boardroom door and a switchback for two thousand delegates are the same equipment and very different orders.
Rental periodDays to a month+A one-evening gala and a fortnight-long installation are quoted differently, and a longer hire is not simply the daily figure multiplied out.
What the equipment has to doShape, not headcountA straight lane, a switchback and a run of barrier around a perimeter all cost differently for the same number of people.
Delivery addressAnywhere in AlbertaEquipment is held here in Calgary. Where it is going, and what the access looks like at the other end, is part of the figure rather than a line added afterwards.
Setup and pickupOptionalWe can set out on arrival and collect afterwards, or drop and go. Say which you want and it is quoted with the order.
Custom workQuoted the same wayA runner cut to an odd walk, a mixed run of belt and rope posts, a barrier line routed around a building — none of that is an exception here.

What is already included

What sits inside the figure, and what holds a date:

  • Insurance

    Included. There is no separate insurance line added on top.

  • Pickup

    Delivery covers collection after the event. One truck, one charge.

  • Booking

    Equipment comes out of the pool and against your dates once the order is paid in full.

Setup and teardown

Setting out and striking by our crew are optional, and they are quoted with the order rather than sold at a fixed rate — a run of eight posts in a lobby and a full festival perimeter are not the same job. Say so on the enquiry and it comes back as its own line.

Plenty of clients skip it. Posts carry easily and clip together without tools, so a modest run is well inside what a venue team can handle themselves.

Delivery

Delivery is part of the quoted figure rather than a line added to it, and it covers collection once the event is down. What it comes to follows the address and the size of the order — a boardroom doorway and a festival site are not the same run.

Everywhere else in Alberta is quoted individually, on two things: the address and the size of the order. One lobby run and a full festival load are not the same trip, and distance settles the remainder.

See service areas → for where we go, or simply send the event address with your dates and it will be itemised on your quote.

Cancellation

Plans change; this is how that is handled:

Cancellation terms
More than 48 hours before the rental dateFull refund.
Inside 48 hours but more than 2450% refunded.
Less than 24 hours beforeNo refund.

The full wording lives on the terms and conditions → page, which is the authoritative version.

Common questions about quotes

What does the quoted figure cover?

Equipment and insurance both — no insurance charge sits on top of the rental. Delivery is its own line on the quote rather than a charge revealed later, and collection after the event is inside it.

How do you produce a quote?

Send three things: your event dates, which products and in what quantity, and the event address. An event rental specialist itemises the equipment, works out delivery for that address and sends back one figure covering all of it.

When is my equipment reserved?

Once the order is paid in full. On a busy weekend that makes settling early worth more than settling cheaply.

How far ahead should I book?

The dates that go first are the predictable ones: award season, the spring and summer wedding run, and December corporate evenings. Otherwise there is no minimum notice, so send the dates and we will come back on what is free for them.
