How to Choose the Perfect Vehicle Rental for the Next Community Parade
by George Mason
In order to build a relationship with your community, you may want to consider taking part in a local parade. Parades can be a great way to promote a business because you can put a sign on the side of a vehicle or on a float that lets the community know everything they need to know about your business. If you plan to take part in an upcoming parade, use the guide below to learn how to rent the right vehicle to use on the day of the big event.
Consider Renting a Convertible
Having someone sit in a convertible with the top down, waving to the people on the sides of the parade as they pass by them is traditional for many parades. Renting a convertible to use during the parade allows you to create the look you want to display for your business without having to actually invest in a convertible. When choosing the right convertible, be sure to choose one that has a back seat in it so that the person waving to parade spectators has a comfortable place to sit as they ride in the parade. Be sure to have a banner created that you can hang on either side of the car that has information about your business on it.
Consider Renting a Truck or SUV
If you plan to enter a float into the parade, you need to have a vehicle available to tow it. Determine how much the float will weigh before renting a vehicle to ensure that you rent a vehicle that has the towing ability that you need to be able to haul the float. You may also want to consider having magnetic signs promoting your business to use to stick on the sides of the truck or SUV since a banner may not be easy to attach to the vehicle.
Consider Paying for the Insurance the Company Offers
No matter which vehicle you choose to rent, it is important to pay for the insurance that the company offers. While you want to believe that nothing will happen to the vehicle while you are using it in the parade, something could happen on your way to and from the rental office. To avoid any potential issues, the insurance is worth purchasing. You could be held responsible for any damage that happens to the vehicle regardless of who causes the damage if you do not pay for the insurance.
When you rent the vehicle, be sure to make arrangements to have it picked up a few hours before the parade is set to begin. This allows you to have plenty of time to hang the banners or signs, hitch up to a float trailer if needed, and find your place in line before the parade starts.
