The rental car company must agree to accept the car seats from us, hold them until you arrive, then accept them back when you return the car and hold them for pickup.

Customers must return the car seats themselves to the rental car counter at the end of the rental. Failure to do so may result in replacement charges if a seat is lost or stolen.

If you are staying in a rental property you have never visited before, please be aware that many desert communities are gated and may have vendor curfew hours or restrictions, including Sundays, holidays, or after 5:00 p.m.
It is the customer's responsibility to schedule accordingly and make sure any guard gate is notified in advance, or that any required gate codes are included on the reservation form.
If a delivery or pickup must be rescheduled because these details were not provided, an additional fee may apply.
Common gated-area ZIP codes include: 92264 Palm Springs, 92270 Rancho Mirage, 92211 Palm Desert, 92260 Palm Desert, 92210 Indian Wells, and 92253 La Quinta.
If you select porch delivery or porch pickup, this information is especially important. The renter is responsible for lost or stolen items left on a porch, even after checkout is complete. Please place equipment in a hidden, secure location whenever possible.
If you are staying at a hotel, delivery and pickup are usually handled through the hotel bell closet. The renter is responsible for making sure all equipment is tagged and returned to the bell closet at the beginning of the selected pickup window.
Please do not leave equipment in your room after checkout. If our staff must spend excessive time locating equipment, an extra charge may apply.
We deliver seven days a week between 8:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m.
During holidays and peak season (January through May), we require a minimum five-hour delivery window.
You may contact us late afternoon or evening the day before delivery for a narrower delivery window.
In some cases, arrangements may be made with your resort, rental company, or host for us to deliver before arrival and pick up after departure, depending on our route and schedule that day.
With the exception of high chairs, boosters, and Bumbo seats, Desert Baby Rentals has a no food or drink policy in rental equipment. Water is okay. We also have a no sand policy on strollers.
Products must be returned in the same condition they were received. A minimum $35 cleaning fee may be charged if equipment is returned excessively dirty.
If third-party professional cleaning is required, those charges may also be applied to the card on file.
The renter is responsible for damage, loss, or theft of rental equipment, including any required repair or replacement costs.
If an item is lost at a hotel, airport rental car agency, rental property, or other destination, the renter has 72 hours to work directly with that location to recover the item.
If the item is not recovered within 72 hours, the card on file may be charged for replacement. Additional trips to retrieve equipment may also result in an extra delivery fee.
Car seats cannot be installed by our staff.
Installation information will be posted on the car seats themselves. YouTube can also be a helpful resource, and local sheriff's stations may offer installation assistance.
Full-size cribs cannot be transported in your own vehicle if you change locations during your stay. You must contact Desert Baby Rentals to arrange a transfer.
