      Context

      Request a pickup for rented equipment when you are finished using the equipment and are ready to return it but do not have the means to return it yourself. For example, if you rent an excavator from ABC Construction, you can submit a pickup request. ABC Construction then receives the request and sends a driver to your location to retrieve the excavator.

       

      Notes: 

      • You can only request pickups on a product that has been delivered to your location
      • You cannot request a pickup on a product that has already been picked up
      • You can only request a pickup on a product on an open or overdue contract

      Before You Begin

      Required: Internet connection; valid GateWay account; valid login credentials and access permissions; existing rental contract with at least one product on it
