Missing or not returned sets can be billed up to 5 times the rental fee. Missing or not returned scores can be billed up to 3 times the rental fee. We do not stipulate how much insurance to add to any return since that burden falls on the shipper, but we highly recommend an adequate amount to cover the fees above.
