WHAT IS A CREW BOX/KIT RENTAL FORM? (In the Entertainment industry.)

WHAT IS A CREW BOX/KIT RENTAL FORM?
“Kit fees,” “kit rentals,” and “box rentals” are all basically the same thing. The production is paying you for wear and tear on equipment that you own, which you use on the shoot. It’s cheaper for them, because they don’t have to rent that gear, and a nice tax-free bonus for you. The most likely thing you’ll get a kit fee for is your computer.
Always ask if there is a box rental if not offered and you will be using your own equipment. Many producers (I have worked on shows with these kind of producers) see it as giving free money away. That by hiring you, they are hiring your tools for you to do the job they are paying you for.
Please remember box rental agreements are not for rental package of your equipment. It's not a box or kit, it's a package. It's not a drill, tape measure, laptop, or cell phone.
Read the box rental form carefully.
When you sign the box rental agreement, there's a clause that states that production is not liable for damage to your gear. The difference can be huge between a box rental and package rental. Some producers will hope you sign the box rental for $50 dollars a week with no reimbursement for damaged or stolen equipment. Example: Your package rental could be a rental of $3000.00 dollars for the run of the show with full insurance. Plus the box rental of $50 dollars a week for your computer or combined in your package rental. With your package rental we are not talking about your cell phone or computer. But sound, camera, video equipment etc.
