Who can use the SMU Outdoor Adventures Rental?

Rental equipment is available to SMU students, faculty, staff, alumni, and active Dedman Center members with a valid SMU or Dedman Center ID number. SMU faculty or staff do not have to be a member of the Dedman Center for Lifetime Sports!

Can I reserve equipment?

Rental equipment is available through the Outdoor Adventures (OA) Rental Shop located in Dedman Recreation Center. You can stop by or call at 214-768-9918 or use the online reservation form. Rental Equipment can be reserved up to 2 weeks in advance. Otherwise, it is a first come, first serve basis based on availability.  Payment is expected at time of pick-up. See Rental Rules for more information.

Rental fees can be paid in the form of cash, check, MasterCard, Visa, or Discover.  See below for more details or go to the Rental Rules tab.

Can I rent equipment for others?

Rentals are only available to those who meet the criteria above.  Renters should be aware that the individual on the reservation and/or rental agreement will be held responsible and accountable for the rental equipment and any additional fees that may be charged.

Individuals with a reservation will be required to notify the OA Rental Shop if someone other than the person listed is picking up the rental.  In addition, OA Rental Staff will not charge rental fees at time of pick up to the credit card deposit on file.  Fees will be the responsibility of the person picking up the rental.

Individuals may rent enough equipment for a party of 4.

Where and when do I pick up my rentals?

Rental Shop operational hours are located here. Rentals must be picked up at the OA Rental Shop during the posted hours of operation. Rentals may be dropped off at the OA Rental Shop during operational hours or outside the posted hours by contacting a Dedman Facility Manager at the main desk. However, the rental will not be considered returned until the beginning of the next business days' operational hours.

The person picking up the equipment will be held responsible for payment and the return of equipment in a clean and non-damaged condition. No refunds or pro-rated rental for early drop off. Rentals fees are based on a daily (24 hour) rental rate with a limited inventory of equipment available by the hour.

What happens if I cancel?

Individuals can cancel reservations up to the day prior to pick-up. No-shows on the day of pick-up will be charged 1-day rental on the credit card deposit for each item.

What happens if I return the equipment late or damaged?

Renters returning damaged, dirty, or late equipment will be charged a fee (see Rental Rules) to the credit card deposit. The Rental Shop staff will attempt to contact the renter notifying of additional charges and allow an alternative payment if desired. 

• The Damage Fee equals the cost associated with repair to include shipping, labor, repair, and replacement parts. If the equipment is beyond repair or repairs cost more than replacement value, the renter will be charged for RETAIL replacement.
• A Cleaning Fee will be charged if the equipment is returned dirty or wet beyond "normal." We expect our equipment to get dirty and damp but if cleaning requires excessive amount of time and energy to prepare for the next rental, the fee will apply.
• Late Fees will incur if equipment is not returned by the contracted date on the rental agreement. The renter will be notified of impending late fees. Late Fees for each item per day will be charged to the credit card deposit for up to 1 week. At that point, the credit card deposit will be charged the retail replacement cost (see above).

Must I set up my tent when it is returned?

Not usually but sometimes it will be requested especially with any indications that the condition of the return may warrant immediate inspection (disorganized, soaking wet, dirty, etc.). As with all items, the tent will be inspected thoroughly for missing parts and any damage. By checking the condition, organizing and air-drying before returning, you can eliminate unnecessary time and energy.

What about stove fuel?

The Rental Shop will provide fuel with stove rentals. The amount of fuel provided will equal roughly one cannister of propane fuel or 11 oz of white gas fuel for each stove.  The renter can purchase additional fuel from the Rental Shop. Be careful purchasing or providing your own fuel.  Using the wrong type of fuel or canister can result in damage to the equipment and a potentially dangerous situation. Be sure to inquire at the time of rental.

What about batteries?

We do not supply batteries!
