SIGN GYPSIES®

PAYMENTS & DELIVERY:

• Preparing a greeting takes a lot of prep work to get the details right!  Due to this, payment is required within 72 hours of receiving invoice.  In the event of non-payment, we will attempt to contact you before canceling order. If we still don't have payment, a cancellation notification will be sent via Square informing you of the cancellation of greeting and your spot on the calendar will be made available to another customer.

• Greeting may be modified due to yard size and condition.  If you are unsure if your yard will accommodate the size greeting you've ordered, please email us ahead of time with a photo just so we can ensure you've selected an appropriate package.

• Due to the unique nature of each setup and number of greetings booked each day, we can not guarantee a specific delivery/pick up time. We will guarantee that the greeting will be delivered no later than 7:00 am on the morning of the event date. We will make every effort to accommodate unique circumstances. Please note any special requests in comments section of order form.

• There is no need for you to be home during delivery or removal. We will install your greeting quickly and quietly in the best location for aesthetic and installation purposes. We will leave a note on the doorknob for the recipient with the sender’s name to let them know who the yard greeting is from.

• If your greeting is a surprise for an address other than your own, we require that you please notify someone in that household that we will be on the property during the scheduled window for setup and take down.  This is for our safety but also to help keep the surprise.  By booking the sign and proving payment, you agree that we have the permission to be on the property.  Purchaser is responsible for the sign while placed in the yard, regardless of whether they live at the delivery address & should forward our policies to homeowner.

• If the rental is a surprise evening setup for another member of your household, please close blinds/drapes during the delivery time window and leave an outside light on for us so we can identify the address easily.

• During warm weather, please water your yard VERY THOROUGHLY in the days leading up to your delivery.  If a screwdriver can easily penetrate 6" into the ground all along the area where the sign will be installed, we should be good to go! If we are unable to install a greeting due to ground conditions when we arrive (other than inclement weather/frozen ground), we will only refund 50% due to time/travel/preparation and loss of booking opportunity for another customer.

• Our signs are made from coroplast and are very weather resistant. They will not be damaged by rain or snow. High winds do put our signs at risk of becoming a damage or injury liability. Sustained winds or gusts in excess of 20 mph may require signs to be picked up, even if event is not over. If signs are picked up early due to wind, we will offer partial refund or discount on future sign setup.

• We cannot put signs in pea gravel, concrete, mulch, flower beds, thick landscaping, hard packed soil that has been used as a driveway, for example. We install signs on lawns. We define lawns as unobstructed soil with grass on the top. If you anticipate any trouble with installation, please inquire about our stands as a possible option. Stands are available for $35 for every 4' of sign. Typical signs are 25' long or more.

• If pets have access to area where sign will be installed, please pick up any feces prior to installation. We reserve the right to decline to install in an area where fecal matter is present.

• Please do NOT remove or move our signs from your lawn for ANY reason. Do not allow event helpers or groundskeepers to take down signs at any time for any reason. If they need to be taken down or moved before your scheduled removal time, please contact us via text and we will take care of it ASAP. An unauthorized removal fee of $50 will be charged if we arrive to pick up and see that the signs have been taken down or moved, in addition to the replacement costs of any stakes or graphics that are damaged from being moved.
