Rentals & Gear

We rent professional AV and event production gear across seven departments: Pro Audio (line arrays, consoles, subwoofers, IEMs, RF systems), Video (LED walls, projectors, IMAG switchers, media servers), Lighting (moving lights, LED fixtures, consoles), Staging (portable staging, risers, mobile stages), Backline (guitar/bass amps, drum kits, keyboards), Special FX (CO₂ jets, cold sparks, haze, confetti cannons), and Truss & Rigging (truss, chain motors, ground support).

Yes. We deliver, set up, and strike all rental equipment. Delivery fees depend on distance from our Philadelphia warehouse. Contact us for a quote specific to your venue.

Yes, dry hire is available for qualified operators. You must have verifiable experience with the specific gear you're renting. Certain items (rigging, high-power audio systems) require a D24K operator on site for safety and liability reasons.

Our standard rental period is one day (load-in day through show day). Multi-day and weekly rates are available for touring productions and extended events.

Yes. D24K works nationally and internationally. We've supported productions across the United States and in Europe. We travel with our own gear and crew. Travel, trucking, and per diem are included in quotes for out-of-market events. Contact us and we'll put together a package regardless of location.

Quotes & Booking

Use the Request a Quote button on any page of our site. Tell us your event date, venue, type of event, and what departments you need. We'll follow up within one business day, often same day.

For large productions (concerts, festivals, major corporate events), we recommend booking 4–8 weeks out. For smaller events, 1–2 weeks is usually fine. That said, we can sometimes accommodate last-minute requests. Call us and ask.

Event date and times (load-in, show, strike), venue name and address, estimated audience size, type of event, departments needed (audio, video, lighting, etc.), and any technical rider requirements if applicable.

Yes. We require a deposit to hold your date. The deposit amount and payment schedule are outlined in your rental agreement. Full payment is typically due before or on the day of load-in.

Cancellation terms are included in your rental agreement and vary based on how close to the event date the cancellation occurs. Please review your contract carefully. Cancellations close to the event date may result in forfeiture of the deposit.

Production Services

Yes. If you already have gear sourced, we can provide labor only. We can also provide crew to supplement your in-house or existing production team.

Absolutely. Our production services include technical direction, show design, CAD stage plots, signal flow diagrams, rider fulfillment, and coordination from first call through final strike.

Yes. Our engineers and crew regularly travel for touring productions, festivals, and destination corporate events. Per diem and travel costs are included in production quotes.

Logistics & Practical

We don't publish a hard minimum, but very small single-item rentals may not be practical given delivery logistics. Contact us and we'll let you know if your request is a good fit.
