Terms of Service

Introduction: This agreement sets forth the terms and conditions under which you may use the Leadfoot Rentals (the "Site"). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth in this agreement. If you do not wish to be bound by these terms and conditions, you may not access or use the Site.

Services Offered:

Leadfoot Rentals offers prepaid trailer rentals. Refund eligibility is governed by our Cancellation Policy. After the rental period begins, payments are non-refundable except where required by law.

PAYMENT & AUTHORIZATION (Prepaid Rentals):
All trailer rentals are prepaid at the time of booking unless Leadfoot approves a separate written arrangement for an established commercial account. Customer authorizes Leadfoot to charge the payment method on file for any amounts owed under this Agreement, including but not limited to: rental extensions, late return charges, cleaning fees, damage, missing parts or equipment, tolls and citations, administrative fees, recovery/impound costs, and applicable Taxes.

For approved commercial accounts billed by invoice, payment terms will be stated on the invoice. Past due amounts may be subject to a late fee up to the maximum allowed by applicable law, and Customer remains responsible for all amounts owed.

TAXES:
Rental rates and service charges may not include sales tax or other governmental taxes, fees, levies, or assessments that Leadfoot Rentals is required to collect (collectively, “Taxes”). Customer agrees to pay all applicable Taxes in addition to the rental and service charges. Leadfoot may charge the payment method on file for any applicable Taxes owed in connection with the rental or related services.

If Customer claims an exemption from Taxes, Customer must provide a valid tax exemption certificate before the transaction is completed. If the transaction is later determined to be taxable, Customer agrees to reimburse Leadfoot for any Taxes assessed that are attributable to Customer.

Cancellation Policy

Cancellations within 24 hours of booking: If you cancel within 24 hours of booking, Leadfoot will refund the amount paid at the time of booking in full.

Cancellations after 24 hours / No-shows: If you cancel after 24 hours of booking, or if you are a no-show, the amount paid at the time of booking is non-refundable.

This policy is intended to reduce last-minute cancellations that prevent other customers from securing a trailer.

In the event of a no-show, the trailer may be released to other customers without further obligation from Leadfoot.

A “no-show” includes failing to pick up the trailer within two (2) hours of the scheduled pickup time without contacting Leadfoot to reschedule.

LATE RETURN (2-HOUR GRACE PERIOD):
Customer agrees to return the trailer by the scheduled return time. Leadfoot may provide a two (2) hour grace period after the scheduled return time only if the late return does not impact another customer’s reservation, pickup, delivery, or scheduled use. If the late return does impact another rental (including delaying, canceling, or interfering with another reservation), the grace period does not apply, and late charges may be assessed immediately at Leadfoot’s discretion. If the trailer is returned more than two (2) hours late, Leadfoot may, in its discretion, (A) charge an additional full daily rental rate for any partial day late, (B) charge the then-current rental rate in effect, and/or (C) assess pickup/recovery charges if Leadfoot must retrieve the trailer. Customer authorizes Leadfoot to charge the payment method on file for any amounts owed due to late return.

DISPUTED CHARGES:
If Customer disputes any charge, Customer agrees to contact Leadfoot in writing within 7 days of the charge so Leadfoot can investigate and provide supporting documentation.  

RENTAL PERIOD & CHARGES:
Rental charges begin at the scheduled pickup time (or delivery time) and end when the trailer is returned to the designated return location and checked in by Leadfoot (or when Leadfoot confirms retrieval for pickups). A two (2) hour grace period applies to the scheduled return time as described in the Late Return section. Additional charges may apply if the trailer is returned late, returned excessively dirty, returned with damage, or returned missing equipment or accessories. Charges may continue to accrue until the trailer is returned and made available for inspection.

Pick-up and Delivery:

Pick-up and delivery by Leadfoot is subject to a “Delivery and Pick-up Service Charge,” the amount(s) of which are disclosed on the Rental and Service
Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentence, for the rental of Tanks, the rental period continues until Customer has emptied the Tanks of all contents and cleaned the Tanks in accordance with all applicable regulations, and all other terms of this Agreement. Rental charges do not include
the cost of the Refueling Service Charge, any applicable Taxes (as defined below), the Delivery and Pickup Service Charge, transportation surcharges, the cost of any applicable environmental service charge or other miscellaneous charges, the amount(s) of which are disclosed on the Rental and Service Agreement.
