Rental Laptops should always come with an Air Bag

Renting laptops has been the smart, affordable, and portable trend in the recent past. We want to make sure when you decide to go forward with any notebook rental that you are protected against certain threats such as Theft, Damage, and Viruses.

*Theft - Prevention - Lockdown cables. You would never leave your dog or child unattended or risk leaving your car unlocked, would you? The same applies to your laptop. Losing data because of hardware theft can cause serious heart ache and stress. We recommend inquiring about the nominal cost of a lockdown cable. And you have choices – combination locks or keyed locks. If you have a rental with multiple laptops, you can get lockdown cables with all the keys to prevent hassle.

*Damage - Insurance Waivers- Make sure these are offered by your rental company. Ever rented a car? When you are filling out the paperwork, they always ask if you would like to accept the extra insurance. Which is a nominal fee for an expensive rental in order to protect you against damage equipment – protect yourself! Who knows where the next coffee spill will be?

*Antivirus protection - Look out! They are invisible, but viruses are all around...your rental company should give you a standard install of a indestructible good anti-virus software with the latest updates.

These are three important protection questions you should be asking when you rent. At ICCRents prevention gear is a comfort we provide that we suggest you use. Sometimes doing the safety procedures aren’t as exciting as placing an order for a fabulous laptop but being able to lock down, insure, and get antivirus protection is worth the time.
