Tips 

TIP 1 - Use bundles for full kits.

TIP 2 - The shorter the reservation the easier it will be to book.  If you want it longer, add a note with the desired return date and time and we will do our best to accommodate you.

TIP 3 - Use the bookmark feature to highlight equipment you use often.

TIP 4 - To fix simultaneous pickups & returns, alter the start or end time by 15 minutes (or longer).

TIP 5 - To fix min lead time, you must push your start time back to a later time.  If this cannot be done, you will need to book in person.

TIP 6 - Large reservations (over 5 items) should be made a minimum of 2 hours in advance to ensure we have time to build it. 

NOTE:  Large reservations made with short notice may not be completely built at your time of arrival.

TIP 7 - To fix max checkout time - reduce the length of your reservation until the error has been removed.  All equipment has a maximum checkout length, usually 3 days with some exceptions.

TIP 8 - Add further info or requests to the notes section of the reservation, we will do our best to accommodate you.  Please don't write an essay, be as brief as possible.

If you are classified as research or a student employee, you will need to speak with a full-time staff member to get full access to your authorizations.
