Guide to ShareGrid's Damage + Theft Coverage Option:
Welcome to ShareGrid! We're excited to have you here and even more excited to introduce our Damage + Theft coverage option, tailor-made to give you peace of mind when renting equipment.
Key Highlights:
Affordable coverage for listings, primarily meant for short-term protection.
Available for most listings with a replacement value of up to $30,000.
Breaking It Down:
Damage Coverage
Life’s full of unexpected moments. If your rented equipment gets damaged during your rental period, this coverage has your back.
'Damage' means any harm that affects how the gear works. But remember, minor cosmetic marks or wear and tear from regular use aren't included.
Theft Protection
We understand the worry of renting pricey equipment. With this coverage, you're protected if your rented gear is forcibly taken while you have it. Just ensure you have solid evidence and a police report to back your claim.
Deductibles
All claims come with a 12% deductible based on the item’s Replacement Value.
For Instance: Renting something worth $1500? If it gets damaged and you claim, your deductible is 12% of $1500, i.e., $180. You can find each item's Replacement Value in its 'Specs' section, during checkout, on your invoice, and in your rental confirmation.
Exceptions to Keep in Mind:
ShareGrid’s ace team will thoroughly review all claims.
Day-to-day wear and tears, like scratches or dents, aren’t covered.
Lost items due to your negligence or theft from a vehicle? Those are out of the coverage's scope.
If equipment isn’t returned intentionally, it's labeled as 'Voluntary Parting'. It's not considered theft but fraud.
