MLD has extremely competitive rates. In addition to 1-day rates listed on our downloadable PDF Rental Rate Card & Price List, we also offer 3-day weeks, and 10-day months. Plus we try not charge for shipping time if you're travelling with our equipment. Instead you only pay for the days you use the gear.

Terms & Conditions
Please read the Terms & Conditions tab carefully, download the pdf file & fax a signed copy to (214) 654-9980.
Insurance
Doing business with MLD also requires you to provide a valid certificate of insurance that meets our requirements, or pay a Damage/Loss Limit Fee (16% for most rentals). Our Damage/Loss Limit Fee gives you protection against a catastrophic rental loss with a $2,500 deductible. See the Insurance tab for details on specific coverages we require.
Delivery & Pick-up
Take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with our Delivery & Pick-up Policy under the Delivery Tab.
Payment
We accept MasterCard, Visa, American Express, Discover, PayPal, checks, or cash for payment. Based on your credit rating your account may require a credit card as a security deposit for payment and/or equipment damage guarantee so please download and fill out the Credit Card Authorization / Guarantee (CC Form Tab) when submitting your application (NOTE: You are NOT required to use this card for the initial rental). However, prepayment (Cash-On-Delivery) is mandatory for all first-time rentals. COD payments are due when equipment is picked-up, or delivered.
Sales Tax
Equipment rented in Texas used in the production of a motion picture, or video is exempt from state sales tax. However, state law requires us to maintain an original signed exemption form on file. So you also need to complete online, or download, sign & return the Sales Tax Exemption form (Tax Form Tab) with any other paper documents you fax.
