Things to Do Before You Things to Do Before You Call:

Have a calendar handy to check your dates. Make sure you know the exact day you need the drops to arrive and when you can ship them out again.

Plan your rentals in advance. During peak backdrop rental seasons (ie. December, June, etc.) it may be necessary to place your rental order 6 - 12 months in advance.

Have your Schell Scenic Catalog on hand. Be sure you’ve reviewed our policies and procedures.

Choose two or three back-up choices per backdrop. Make sure you write down second or third choices per backdrop.

Check the measurements of your stage and the drops you are renting. Schell Scenic drops come in different dimensions. Make sure that your selected drops will fit your venue.

Have a credit card ready. To place a reservation on a backdrop you may be asked to do so with a major credit card.

Get a purchase order number. Some organizations require that we place their purchase order numbers on invoices.

Write down your Schell order number. We will use this number to access individual orders. Note: Your signed confirmation is required before your order is ready to process.

Know your business address. UPS can not guarantee timely delivery to residential addresses. This could cause the backdrops to arrive to you later than expected.
