D E K O  Payment and Insurance Policy Information
Once you have selected the backdrop(s) you wish to rent, please confirm availability for your event date by calling 510-532-5646 or by emailing
A separate charge for a security deposit is required on all rentals. Please write a check with the rental invoice number in the memo section. We retain these checks until the backdrop(s) have been returned and inspected for damage.
A Certificate of Insurance naming D E K O as additionally insured on your General Liability Policy must accompany your security deposit.
All backdrops are subject to late fees if not returned by the agreed upon due date (rental period is normally five business days). There will be a charge of $50 for the first late day and 20% of the rental price thereafter including freight charges to the next customer should the drop need to be forwarded.
D E K O  Instructions for Installing and Handling Backdrops
NEVER INSTALL BACKDROPS OUTDOORS! They can catch a slight breeze and become an extremely dangerous "sail" that could destroy your entire event. Backdrops should never be exposed to rain or wet conditions.
Each backdrop has twill ties sewn into the top webbing. Use these ties to secure the drop to your pipe hardware. Do not tie knots – bows will untie easily and make dismantling much simpler.
Kindly fold your drop by laying it out, right side up, and folding from the bottom hem to the webbing, first in half, then half again and so on until it is a manageable size and then from edge to center on either side until you have a small, neat blanket-sized package.
Please wrap your return shipment in plastic and place it in a sturdy box.
D E K O  Flame Retardant Information
D E K O backdrops are treated with Flame Retardant in accordance with California State Health and Safety Codes. Each backdrop is stamped on the corner of the bottom hem with our Certification from the State Fire Marshal.
Should you require further evidence for your local Fire Marshal, we can fax printed certificates as necessary. Please notify us at least a day or two in advance if your Fire Marshal insists on paper certificates.
