The questions depend on the call.
Go beyond a name and number. Choose which follow-up questions matter to your team, and adjust them to the services you offer.
- Jobsite address for construction rentals (street + city/zip)
- Does the caller need a certified operator for heavy equipment (excavator, lift, compactor)?
- Event date for event rentals
- Type of event (wedding, corporate, birthday, graduation, etc.)
- Event address for delivery
- Approximate number of guests (event rentals)
- Ground surface at site — grass, concrete, asphalt, gravel (affects tent staking and delivery)
- Access constraints — narrow road, low clearance, gate code, weight limit, soft ground
Calls your team will recognize.
Use these examples to try your setup. Decide which requests need a quick handoff and which can wait for a callback. Response times and availability are yours to confirm.
“We start the job Thursday”
“Event is next Saturday — need a tent by Friday”
“We're bidding a job next month and need to know what you have”
“Planning a graduation party in six weeks”
