Before you rent
Rental requirements and terms
What you need to take the machine, and what you'll see on the invoice. It's all here, so nobody finds out about a charge when the bill arrives.
Who can rent
Both routes are open — what changes is the paperwork.
Company
- Valid tax document from the country of invoicing (NIT/NRC in El Salvador, NIT in Guatemala, RUC in Nicaragua and Panama).
- Details of the person signing for the company.
- Rental agreement signed before delivery.
- If you already hold a credit line with Grupo ConstruMarket, it applies to rentals.
Individual
- Valid ID document.
- Security deposit, set according to the equipment and the term.
- Rental agreement signed before delivery.
- The deposit is returned when the equipment comes back, less any damage beyond normal wear.
What we agree before delivery
- 01Equipment and term: by day, week, month or long-term contract.
- 02Exact site address and how to get in: freight and rigging depend on it.
- 03Who receives the machine on site and who will operate it.
- 04Delivery date and pickup date.
What the rate covers
- The machine, with preventive and corrective maintenance: a repair never raises your rate.
- Hour and condition monitoring.
- On-site technical support and, if the failure isn't resolved, a replacement.
- 8 machine hours per day.
What's billed separately
- Fuel: supplied by the customer.
- Delivery and pickup freight, based on the distance to your site.
- Operator, except on rates that already include one.
- Overtime past the 8 daily hours, measured on the hour meter.
- Damage beyond normal wear.
- VAT of the country of invoicing (Guatemala's published rates already include it).
How the hours are counted
The hour meter is read in front of you when the equipment is delivered and again when it's picked up — the difference is what the machine worked. The daily rate covers 8 hours; if your crew runs a double shift or is racing a deadline, tell us the pace when you request the quote and we'll put it in writing in the proposal, with no surprises at month end.
Questions about terms
- Do I need to be a company to rent?
- No. We rent to companies and to individuals. A company presents its tax document and signs the agreement; an individual rents by leaving a security deposit.
- Is fuel included in the rate?
- No. Fuel is supplied by the customer. The machine is delivered with a fuel level recorded on the delivery record and is expected back at the same level.
- Is transport to my site included?
- We coordinate transport, with safe rigging and mobilization, but freight is quoted separately based on the distance to your site. It's in the proposal from the start, not as a later charge.
- How many machine hours does the daily rate cover?
- Eight. Anything past that on the hour meter bills as overtime. If you're running a double shift, say so when you request the quote and we'll put it in writing in the proposal.
- Who's responsible if the machine breaks?
- Normal wear and mechanical failures are on us: preventive and corrective maintenance are inside the rate. Damage beyond normal wear — misuse, accident or lack of care on site — is the customer's responsibility.
- What's the minimum rental period?
- From one day. There are daily, weekly and monthly rates, plus long-term contracts from 6 to 24 months with preferred terms.
These are RentaCentro's general terms. The terms of your rental are set out in the proposal and in the rental agreement, which prevail over this page.
