We had rented 2 big charcoal grills. Returned them cleaner than they were at the time of renting. We have before and after pics but they didn't want to even check and were pretty arrogant about not returning the deposit. Scammers!! read more

We rented tables and chairs from American Party Rental and they were the star of the show! Everything from the quality of their products to the timeliness and delivery execution was perfect. We will absolutely use APR for all of our future rental needs. Cannot recommend them enough! read more

I would HIGHLY recommend this place!! I had a Graduation party and was severely behind on planning. I called them 2 days before the party and they were able to accommodate me with no problem. Furthermore, I was extremely impressed with their prices. Many many other companies I called were price gauging due to the season of (Grad Parties). Could be wrong, perhaps others prices are normally astronomically high. American Party Rental really came through for me when needed. If you are on a budget, I would suggest calling American. read more

The staff was so accommodating on both ends- the order and the delivery and pickup of the order. The linens were perfect for what I needed. They had several options and pricing for the chairs which was nice too. I'll be back ! read more

How about some decency! They kept a $1600 deposit because our client asked to change the color of linens 13 days out and they refused! Would not budge! Not customer friendly at all !!! There reviews say they are thieves and they are! Use Misc rentals , day and night difference! read more

THESE PEOPLE ARE THIEVES. DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY! THEIR EQUIPMENT IS SHODDY , STAINED,AND THE STAFF IS INCOMPETENT. I rented a canopy over Thanksgiving for my wedding and when we unpacked it the tent stakes were missing so we used our fence, a tree and garden stakes. There was a huge burn mark across one wall. And several poles were bent. I was very disappointed in their equipment. So when we returned it we were informed that even though we have pictures showing we did not have tent stakes we were still having the pay for their mistake. They stole $206.00 out of my account. DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY. DO NOT HAVE YOUR BIG DAY RUINED BY THIS COMPANY LIKE I DID. read more

American Party Rental - See were we had to use our fence because no tent stakes were provided. I have several more pictures - Party Equipment Rentals Near Me - Austin, Texas

These people completely ghosted us on a rental order made in January. We confirmed via email at 8 am yesterday the day of our wedding reception that someone would be calling us between 2-4 with a 45 allocation for travel time for us to meet them. They never called or showed up and left our wedding reception party without two 10foot round tables and 24 chairs. This was to be the majority of seating and tables that my guest needs to eat on. So thanks for starting off our party we've planned for months out on a sour note! I will be telling everyone I know to stay away from these people as well as calling when they open tomorrow for a full refund. I can show my call history to prove they never attempted to call me. The REAL rub here is their facility is literally a mile down the street from our reception location! read more

Despite the closing time noted on their website, they DO NOT accept returns within the last 15 minutes of being open. I learned this the hard way. I went to return 3 tables and 2 stacks of folding chairs on Saturday. This would've taken me all of 5 minutes to unload from my truck into their bay. I arrived at 2:53 PM, called to let them know I was in back and ready to unload, and they refused - despite being inside. They noted that their team to unload had left for the day. I told them I'd unload myself and accept all damage. They simply said no and to come back on Monday morning. I pleaded with the person but she was not budging. Note that I live 40 minutes away and agreed to be quick and accept any damage claims. I spoke with the manager, Val, today and she said that this is their policy. When challenged on why not keep the entire team there until 3 PM, she simply said "they have other stuff to do." I am not saying I couldn't have planned with more time in advance. I am not saying that I was 100% right in how I handled the call on Saturday. But I do expect a small dose of customer service. It seems that corporate red tape and loose closing time practices have taken their toll on this place. I'm hopeful that the company owners take note of this and make some changes. Until then, there are plenty of other places to rent from. read more

I came in with a vision and the front desk staff made sure I got everything I wanted and more. They were so helpful and had a great attitude for a girl that asks 100's of questions. The delivery drivers were on time and set up everything just as planned. The equipment was in 5 star condition and every linen was clean and pressed to perfection. The detail that went into planning my event was perfectly executed by American Party Rental team. I will be using them for every event in my future, and I truly can't recommend them enough read more

I've rented from them a few times, both for my kids' birthday parties. They are professional and fairly priced. They were patient each time I changed my order (about 3 times)! I'd recommend them for general tables, chairs, and food equipment/ supplies. read more

Can't recommend APR highly enough. Their selection is huge, prices are fair, and customer service is top notch. I used them for very the first event I planned a year and a half ago and will continue to use them for any rental needs going forward. If you need something that isn't listed on the website, just shoot them an email and they'll let you know if they can accommodate your request. After visiting their showroom for the first time recently, I highly recommend doing the same for weddings or important events that you want to be sure are perfect. The photos on their website don't do their equipment justice once you see it in person. I can't say enough kind things about their staff. They are patient, willing to go the extra mile, and wonderful at responding to inquires in your preferred contact method. I live way down south and will continue driving to 183/Burnet anytime I have an event just to support this company. read more

Awesome to work with and very reasonable. Very accurate and timely. Everything with them for our outdoor wedding for 100 people went off without a hitch!!! Valerie was our main point of contact as is on her game! read more

Sometimes you gotta cool down 15 cases of beer. When that happens, I have to hit a rental store. So I got an ice chest here for $18, which i thought was on the high side. But they do rent a snow cone maker, sports games, a cotton candy machine for $50 which seems decent. They're pretty efficient and the ladies are nice. Why is this a three star? Well because their return policy is a total pain in the butt. You can have it for one day, return the next day. They're not open late and you get charged a full days fare for the rest of the days. After you've thrown a party for 300 people, getting the ice chest back tends to be low on the list. If there was an option to extend for a day for a lower price, it might be worth the fourth star. read more

Needed some tables, chairs, and linens during an extremely busy time for them. They came through like champs! Arranging it all via email and their outstanding delivery crew made for a pleasant experience. I remember using this company 33 years ago and am glad I used them again! read more

I want to thank American Party Rental, Val and the entire staff for their amazing service. My daughter got married October 17, 2020 in Austin. Our planning started a year and a half ago because I live in El Paso and she lives there. From day one, American Party Rental made the process easy and was accommodating when the rental amounts kept changing due to COVID. Thank you for the excellent customer service and for helping to make my daughter's wedding day great. read more

Sara with APR was so helpful in planning our rental needs for a wedding with 150 guests! She suggested the right size cloths for the cocktail, dining and miscellaneous tables and offered things I hadn't thought of like clips to keep the cloths in place. They offer more options than most companies including misting fans for outdoor events. The delivery charge was very reasonable as was the total invoice. The drop off and pick up were easy and the delivery people were nice and professional. We couldn't be happier with APR, they helped make the wedding a tremendous success! Thank You Very Much!!! read more

Rented: 16 tables and 70 chairs. I ultimately went with this company because they offer (at least at the time) 50% back if you cancel a portion. Since we weren't sure if it was going to rain, we had reserved a tent, then cancelled the request because it was perfect sunny weather. The staff was extremely helpful and I appreciate being able to recoup some of that money. The two other companies I got quotes from didn't offer that. Delivery was challenging for their staff, as the venue (East Austin, Poquito St.) had neighbors' cars parked out front. They quickly unloaded and went on their way. They even offered to pickup the tables closer to the setup area, which was awesome. They were a little late on the pickup, but that probably wasn't their fault, I blame Austin, TX traffic. I would suggest getting the pickup drivers' phone number to communicate if there are any issues, or you want early pickup. Would definitely rent from them again, and certainly recommend them. Although I hope to never plan another wedding. read more

They are thieves and fraudulent business/ people. Need to be careful with their rental services. They know how to manipulate and tell lies on rentals. Not a good service and am very displeased with their services and workers. After returning their items, they still lied that a full grate of water goblets is not theirs. They want to keep the water goblets they claimed is not theres and still charge me for a full grate. Beware of their services. Take pictures because their works are not good and fraudulent.... I will report them to the business bureau. Never trust them. read more

I've used American Party Rental 3 times, but I won't use them again. I was lured in by their prices: to be sure, they were by far the cheapest rental for tables in town. First event was for a non-profit dinner. Guy showed up, threw the tables off the truck, and was on his way. We had 25 tops, 23 poles, and only 22 bases. When we called to request that they come back with the missing table limbs, they asked us to check around before they sent anyone back. Boo, customer service. I should have learned, but I hired them again last spring for a private event. This time? Ample bases and poles, but we were missing two tops. Lucky we had overbooked so it wasn't much of a problem. Still, I'm a cheapskate so I kept using them. But this year, they lost our reservation and offered to let us make a new one, but delivery was already full. Not wanting to drive and pick the darn things up, and realizing that god sometimes works in mysterious ways, I declined. But damn, $5 for 4 tops. Can't beat that. read more

I came here yesterday to rent a ticket hopper for our auction this weekend and asked the pricing and sizes for the various hoppers they rent. There was a woman named irene who continued to say they only have one and the one (after they said they have 3 sizes on the phone) on the floor was jumbo. She told me the dimensions and I mentioned twice that the one she was charging me for was not the dimensions or size of the jumbo. I paid $48 for the jumbo hopper which is double the amount for the medium. The other woman loaded up a hopper and coincidentally they found the jumbo hopper and the back and said the one I previously said I wanted was indeed the medium. I work in customer service and for two sales women to not help me with the accurate rental refuse to go measure the product and then after they charge me they were actually incorrect. Shows very poor customer service. I guess I should have walked over and measured it myself? It's just frustrating that the two women insisted it was the jumbo product and then loaded up the jumbo hopper that they found in the 'back'. I just felt overcharged and the Attitudes of the women who checked me out were very poor. We will be renting from an alternative rental company for all our event needs because I can't trust the service or accuracy of the products we are actually renting from this place. I gave 2 stars because after asking if they can help me load it in my car (I'm pregnant) one of the ladies did. Going over and beyond with customer service will go a long way and doing the bare minimum and renting the wrong products and charging the highest price on top of that, will make your customers go elsewhere. read more

This was the cheapest place I found for table rental, chair rental and delivery combined in North-Central Austin, and I called a bunch. Since budget was our No. 1 priority, I went with them. There were issues with their phone number and location changing, then their phone number changing back but not their location, but they were otherwise responsive (when they could be reached at all). Their new location is on Burnet at 183 -- they warned me in advance that they'd be moving but not that it would make them difficult to reach. Our stuff was delivered as promised between 8 and 1 on a Saturday, but pickup was scheduled between 8 and 1 on the following Monday, with an hour's notice via telephone, and they called 15 minutes before they arrived at 4:30. Luckily, no one has to be present for pickup as long as the stuff is left in the same place it was dropped off. Unluckily, you can't get them to do pickup in a different location if you have to move the stuff, unless you pay an additional fee, so keep that in mind if you're using things in several locations. We kind of had to hound them to confirm delivery and the second half of our payment. Oh, well. read more

Rented a tent here for our wedding. We called 5 places and some were totally back-ass-wards. This place was not. We rented a 40 x 60 tent and then realized a week later that it wouldn't fit in the space (after carefuly measurements at the venue). We called later and changed our order and got two different tents that were smaller and cheaper and they didn't penalize us for the first reservation. Awesome. This, all in a week, when vendors were telling us that people were scrambling for tents so badly on this date that they had to pay someone to drive from Dallas with tent for their event!!! They showed up very early in their time window and set up the tent correctly. They also showed up promptly in the evening collect the tent. We used them only for the two tents, not the tables or chairs or linens, and were very impressed. read more

My firm used American Party Rental's services when we were in need of some 6-ft. banquet tables and what I thought would be the hardest task ever to obtain these tables was made simple and easy by American Party Rental's friendly staff and service! I called for a quote and received the email estimate the same day. Their rates were reasonable and fair for what we needed. The office staff members were extremely helpful and reassuring when I had questions about our quote. The delivery and pick-up guys navigated our building's crazy freight elevator with ease and were helpful in setting up the tables once they arrived. I highly recommend their services! Even if you don't have a major event like a wedding or a party, American Party Rental will meet your need with ease and quality! read more

American Party Rental supplied tents, tables, chairs, linens, centerpeices and more for my best friend's wedding. They were fantastic! They delivered everything on-time and everything looked fabulous! I would absolutley use them again for any type of event! read more

Terrible customer service. Will not help you load your tables/chairs that you have rented. Return policy is a pain. Front office help is AWFUL!!! Prices are ok but I will pay more to be treated better. read more

Completely cheated a local animal welfare nonprofit. The venue was 45 minutes late allowing for pickup and APP charged me double my initial rate to come back the next day for pickup. In addition, their name was scrawled in tacky sharpie on all of the rentals which made for a cheap appearance at the event itself. Will never do business with these folks again and would suggest any other rental company in town over them. read more

Thank you to the team who dropped off and picked up tables for our meal packing event this weekend! They were polite, friendly, and seemed to enjoy their job. They helped make our event run smoothly! read more

When my son's first birthday turned into more than just a small family get together, I needed tables, chairs, tablecloths, etc. everything to accommodate the 30+ people that were now going to be at my house. Val was very patient with me during the renting process and helped me figure out exactly what I needed. The team showed up the morning of and had everything set up in no time. I was worried about two guys in a big truck rolling out equipment on my yard, but they were extremely professional and didn't tear up my lawn. Which I appreciate! read more

Tyler and his crew showed up to drop off a BUNCH of tables and chairs to my backyard, not only did he back up like he's been driving trucks all his life, but they unloaded and took it to the backyard in less than 30 min, we're VERY friendly. Definitely will be using them more often and spreading the word to my friends, family , and neighbors. You guys rock! read more

Spoke to Val due to having experienced some not so great customer service, she contacted me and addressed my concerns making everything better. I am now a happy camper and will continue to do my business with American Party Rental. Val is the best, thanks for listening and regaining my confidence. Thanks again! read more

Always come here when we have a catering from the restaurant, outstanding service. Ppl in the front desk and back they are awesome. Keep up the good work guys. read more

Reservered two fans. They were too big so we only got one. They said because I reserved I lose half the rental fee. I will NEVER GO HERE AGAIN! read more

I had my wedding in College Station and they accommodated all of my needs. The drivers were amazing and they set up in the Texas summer heat for 2-3 hours and didn't complain once! From the tents,lighting down to the chairs were all in amazing shape and I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Big thanks to the front counter staff for helping me pick out exactly what I wanted. I would recommend American Party Rental to ANYONE that needs rentals for a party or event!!!! read more

I needed rentals for a ribbon cutting event and found American Party Rentals with the help of Google. Prices looked fair. I loved how quick and easy it was to make my reservation online. As the day of the event drew closer, I had a little anxiety about whether the items would get delivered on time or to the site (it wasn't on a map yet). The staff was great about calming me down when I came to confirm everything the day before. Tony and his crew showed up five minutes before the scheduled delivery time and had the tent up in no time. They were great to work with and I will be using them for another ribbon cutting we gave scheduled in a few months. I look forward to working with them again. read more

We rented a carpet runner and had to pay a deposit. We were told that it needed to be returned clean as in no stains or we would not get our deposit back. However, when we returned the carpet runner they kept our deposit stating we didn't have it steam cleaned. We didn't know that was the expectation especially since it would expected that they would steam clean it prior to renting it out so we lost our deposit. I tried to call and talk to the manager, but she wasn't willing to help. The owner was supposed to call us back and he never did. read more

From the minute I walked through the door to the day I brought my rentals back American party rental is the only place I would ever go. I was planning my wedding and had absolutely no idea what to do when I walked in I told them how many guest I had and what I had planned and they helped me choose everything that I needed for my wedding. Everything I rented was in fantastic shape and of good quality the tents were easy to install. Before the wedding I had called them back to add things and ask many questions and every time they were helpful and patient. This is the place to go if you need someone to guide you through your preparation for any large event or any event in general. I will always use them for any function that we will be having. read more

If I could possibly give this company 0 stars, I would. Our family has rented items from this company on many occasions over the years and one thing is certainly consistent - they are more than happy to take your money, but as soon as something malfunctions in their product, they have absolutely no ownership or problem solving abilities. Unfortunately this is applicable from the front desk to the management. Upon articulating that their lack of customer service will result in our never renting from them again, the woman literally rolled her eyes and said 'I don't care' while the manager looked on and did nothing. Suffice it to say, they have lost the business from all members of our family and anyone that I can tell this to from here on out. read more

American Party Rental is the bomb. They offered our school prompt, professional business...and they got the order correct. The perfect trifecta. Thanks American Party Rental for helping to make our school event a huge success. read more

Double charged our local animal rescue due to the venue being late opening the doors for pick up! I'm outraged they would take advantage of a nonprofit not to mention penalizing them for something beyond their control and taking more money that was intended to save an animals life! Shame on you!!! read more

Excellent service and continue to assist my group and other groups on campus with various rentals.
