Rental Instrument - FAQ 

Why go through Brook Mays for my instrument?

Brook Mays has been renting instruments to families for over a hundred years. We know how important a quality instrument is to becoming a succesful muscian.

 

What is the Rental Process?

It’s easy! Visit our rental site, select your school and instrument, and follow the prompts till the end.

 

What is your rental program?

We offer a Rent-To-Own monthly lease agreement. You can return the instrument at any time and cancel the agreement, or make all the payments and own the instrument at the end of your term.

 

How much does it cost to rent for a semester?

Our rental program is set up to make affordable monthly payments, with most instruments costing less than $50 a month depending on make, model and previous ownership.

 

Where can I pick up my instrument?

You can have the instrument delivered to the school, to your house or pick up at your local store.

 

Where do I return the instrument?

You can return your instrument to any local Brook Mays store.

 

What if my rental was damaged or needs maintenance?

We offer an optional, comprehensive Replacement and Maintenance Coverage option. If selected, your instrument is completely covered for normal wear and tear, accidental damage and mysterious disappearance. And if we can’t fix it, we'll replace it! 

 

What information do you need from me to rent?

For rentals, we require your name, address, phone number, driver's license number, social security number and date of birth.

 

How long is the rental contract/what is the commitment?

This is a month-to-month agreement that can be canceled at anytime. 

 

Can I buy my rental or upgrade?

Our agreement is Rent-to-Own, meaning if you make all the payments, you will own the instrument.  We also offer instrument upgrades (step-up) for when your student has progressed beyond the beginner level. 

We do recommend students involved in marching band keep their beginner instrument for marching practice.

 

Can I rent even if my school is not set up with Brook Mays?

Absolutely! Give us a call at 800-637-8966 and we'll help get you setup.

 

What comes with my rental instrument?

A beginner supply kit will be included with your rental, with the option to purchase additional teacher-recommended supplies.
