Rental of computer and audio-video equipment can be a low cost, low overhead solution to temporary business needs. There are a number of companies that offer nationwide equipment rental services. Rental plans usually fall into two price categories: day-to-day and long term rental. Day-to-day rental rates are higher on a per day basis than long term rental rates, but are perfect if your company needs a laptop or projector for a short business trip. Long term rental plans are an alternative to purchasing computer equipment outright. In many cases, the best deal is to rent used equipment on a long-term basis, with rent-to-buy features kicking in after a sufficiently long rental period.
