| The purpose of a site inspection is to ensure the renter and the rental company the tent ordered will fit the renters’ needs (and space) prior to arrival at the site. To ensure the safety of the tent erection crews and thetent renter, before a tent can be erected the followingconditions must be determined (either by the rental company or the renter): | ||||||||||||||||||
| 1.)
LOCATION – After the proper tent size and style (frame tent vs.
a pole tent) has
been determined, choose a desirable location for tent. a. The minimum area required for a pole tent is 8’ in length and width more than the actual tent size. This allows 4’ around all sides for stakes. (Example: A Celina 20’ x 30’ POLE tent requires a minimum of 28’ x 38’) b. The minimum area required for a FRAME tent is approximately 1’ around the perimeter when staking and 6’ around the perimeter when using water barrels. (Example: A Celina 20’ x 30’ FRAME tent requires a minimum of 21’ x 31’) |
