Important Reminders

  • Rental payments go toward the ownership of your instrument. If your student plans to continue next year, keep your instrument over the summer so they can practice and you can continue building equity. Returning your instrument will end your rent-to-own agreement and you would need to start over if you need to rent again in the fall.
  • We cannot guarantee instrument pick up at school after the last day of the school year. Please double-check your district calendar.
