If you rent you overspent . . .

October 20, 2017

If you rent you overspent . . .

Why buy Custom Logo Mats when you can rent mats from a service?  I am so glad you asked.  We will BUST 6 Myths about floor mat rental that will convince you it is better to own.

MYTH:  Floor mat rental is more convenient than owning floor mats.
FACT:  Floor mat rental includes a service agreement which can range from weekly, bi-monthly or monthly contracts.  Alternatively, businesses that own floor mats generally clean floor mats daily, based on their needs.

MYTH:  One type and size of floor mat fits all customer needs.
FACT:  One disadvantage of renting a floor mat is that there are limited number of sizes that aren't adequate for the job.  When clients purchase floor mats, they can be customized not only in size, but in material as well, which boosts their safety factor.  Rental companies want to buy large quantities of plain mats without logos so they are interchangeable from one location to the next.  They don't specialize in custom, branded flooring solutions.

MYTH:  Rental mats trap dirt and moisture.
FACT:  While rental mats work better when they are new, they lack solid construction and smart engineering of high performance mats you purchase on behalf of your clients.  This leads to material breakdown through the course of rental and service, and over time, they flatten out, resulting in tracked-in dirt and water runoff.  High-performance mats that are purchased last a lot longer thane their rental counterparts.

MYTH:  Mat rental is cheaper than buying new.
FACT:  Over time, mat rental is considerable more expensive than ownership.  Renting one 3'x5' mat can cost nearly $800 over a five-year period - compare this to the cost on one high-performance  mat of the same size, which costs $250 and will last the same amount of time, if not longer.

MYTH:  There are not benefits to purchasing and owning your own mats.
FACT:  Purchased mats are cheaper, higher quality, and designed to last for years.  With our line of high-quality custom logo mats, you can customize appearance, function and purpose, providing a great branding opportunity for your customers.

MYTH:  All rental mats are delivered in excellent shape and are perfectly cleaned.
FACT:  Due to frequent service intervals, mats in rental programs can vary considerably in structure and appearance with each change.  This can result in subpar appearance and safely hazards.  Buying mat will ensure that a high-quality image is used and your customer's brand looks good for years to come.
