Emily started LCRS Rental in Colorado after noticing the demand for unique event pieces in her community. “We started LCRS Rental, Colorado, as a painting business and slowly moved into event rentals after we learned more about the demand in our area.” From custom-built wedding arches to event backdrops and novelty rentals, her boutique offerings quickly attracted couples, corporate planners, and venues.
The small team of five also manages deliveries, setup, and tear-down. Before switching, Emily relied on Google Sheets and PDF lookbooks, which made it tough to keep track of products and plan schedules. “This was a cumbersome process.” As the business grew, managing inventory organization, delivery scheduling, and website integration became too overwhelming.
Emily explains, “We are able to easily track our inventory and prepare for the event seasons, I can quickly set up delivery schedules with our team and our website integration has never looked better!” With Booqable, their event rental software and event rental website now support growth and customer trust.
Organizing inventory with confidence
Emily rents out specialty event pieces for weddings, corporate events, and private parties. “We stand out because we are focused on providing the focal pieces to events. We take pride in our boutique style offerings and work closely with venues and planners.” But keeping track of these specialty items on spreadsheets led to missed availability and stressful last-minute changes.
Booqable’s inventory organization tools solved this problem by giving Emily live updates and structured control over her rental products. She highlights how important this is: “We are able to easily track our inventory and prepare for the event seasons.”
Here’s how it works for LCRS Rental:
-
Track availability in real time so customers know what’s free on their dates.
-
Schedule orders automatically without the back-and-forth of spreadsheets.
-
Avoid double bookings and ensure items are ready for delivery.
Now, instead of reacting to last-minute changes, Emily can plan for busy wedding seasons with confidence. What once took hours of updates is now automatic, helping the team focus more on service and less on paperwork.
Deliveries made simple
Delivery is at the core of LCRS Rental’s service since every backdrop and arch must be set up at the venue. Before Booqable, planning logistics was stressful and often confusing. “I mostly used google sheets and PDF lookbooks. This was a cumbersome process.”
Booqable’s deliveries app automatically calculates delivery costs based on the customer’s address during online checkout, giving clients instant clarity. Emily notes, “Customers are able to easily see what’s available for their specific event dates and they are also able to see the cost of delivery as soon as their delivery address is entered.”
The deliveries app makes a difference by helping them:
-
Set delivery rates for different distances so pricing is always accurate.
-
Give customers the choice between delivery with setup or pickup.
-
Ensure delivery costs are displayed upfront with no need for back-and-forth.
Instead of juggling calls and spreadsheets, the team now has delivery costs and options managed automatically at checkout. That means events run smoother and clients feel reassured knowing exactly what to expect before they book.
Planning ahead with the Mobile app
Managing a growing number of unique rental pieces also means preparing well in advance. Emily says, “I use the mobile app to prepare for upcoming rental reservations and to see what deliveries need to be fulfilled for the upcoming month.” Before, this required sorting through scattered documents and the risk of human error amongst her team.
With the Booqable mobile app, Emily can now keep her schedule and product availability updated wherever she is. This helps in practical ways:
-
Check for upcoming reservations while on the go.
-
See which deliveries are required for each week.
-
Prepare staff for upcoming setups without waiting until the last minute.
The mobile app allows Emily to run her rental business with fewer last-minute surprises. Instead of guessing or cross-checking, she knows exactly what’s coming next, making it easier to balance client requests with her small team’s workload.
Scaling with confidence
LCRS Rental has grown from a small painting business to a trusted rental company in Colorado, offering boutique event pieces to planners, venues, and couples. With Booqable’s event rental software, Emily and her team have replaced spreadsheets with organized inventory, clear delivery scheduling, and mobile app access.
As Emily puts it, “Lots of time savings between our clients and our company. Clients are able to see exactly what we have available and we are able to capture a lot of contact information beforehand.”
The switch has not only helped with logistics but also improved the customer experience. With their event rental website powered by Booqable, clients can check availability, see delivery costs instantly, and book with confidence. For Emily, that means more time spent creating memorable experiences and expanding her unique collection of rental pieces.
