Rental Basics

How does Rentals by Burton work?

It's simple! To get started...

Step 1: Choose your kit or a la carte gear. Have questions? Our Gear Rental Guides have the answers - from gear to trip planning, we've got you covered.

Step 2: Choose your reservation dates. Lock-in your reservation as soon as possible to ensure the gear you need is available for your dates! You may change or cancel your order up to 10 days before your trip.

Step 3: Your gear arrives directly at your door or destination. We ship anywhere in the contiguous United States - your home, hotel or even 5,000+ UPS or UPS affiliate locations.

Step 4: Repack your gear in the original box and drop it off at any UPS location Repack your gear in the original box and drop it off at any UPS location with the return slip included in your box. You can also schedule a UPS pickup, #1-800-PICK-UPS. Be sure the package is picked up or dropped off on your last rental day by 11:59pm to avoid late fees.

What is the Burton rental agreement?

Our rental agreement includes our liability waiver, payment details, lost or broken gear policy, and cancellation policy.

Your card will be charged at check out, but if you need to make edits to your booking you can do so within 10 days out by sending us an email. An additional deposit will be placed on your card for 70% of MSRP of your rental products. This deposit will be placed once your order is in transit to you and will be removed at the close of your rental, once your items have been received and processed at our warehouse.

Have additional questions about Rentals?

Our Rental Customer Service team is available daily from 9 AM to 6 PM Pacific Time. You can reach us by emailing support@burtonrentals.zendesk.com.

Trade In Basics

How does trade in work?

We accept new and gently used Burton and Analog snowboards and outerwear (snow jackets, snow pants, snow bibs and snow one-pieces) that function properly and are in very good, clean, reusable condition.

We accept snowboards from the 2013 season onward and outerwear from the 2018 season onward. In exchange, we give you a gift card credit that can be used toward purchases at Burton Flagship retail stores and on Burton.com. Products that are traded in will be prepared and listed for resale.

Step 1: Trade it in. Trade in your gently-used Burton or Analog snowboard or outerwear, either online or at a U.S. Burton Flagship store (Burlington, VT Headquarters, Denver, CO, New York, NY, Santa Monica, CA, Boston, MA, Boulder, CO, Wrentham, MA, Truckee, CA, Chicago, IL). Our team will assess eligibility, so please take a moment to review the eligibility requirements.

Step 2: Earn Credit. Receive credit for future purchases.

Step 3: Pass Along. Eligible used products will be cleaned, tuned and made available for purchase, extending the life and reducing their environmental impact of your gear.

Not all items are eligible for Trade in. Please check the eligibility requirements before continuing.

Rental Gear & Care

What happens if I lose or break gear?

You will not be charged for gear that is damaged due to normal wear. However, you will be charged the full retail price of any gear that is not returned or returned with significant damage.

If you receive gear that is damaged prior to your use, you must contact our Gear Rental Guides immediately, by your first rental day, to avoid replacement charges. Failure to notify our Gear Rental Guides of any damage upon delivery may result in fees.

Can I purchase my gear after I rent it?

We’re glad you enjoyed the gear! Not at this time, but stay tuned...

Rental Trip Planning

When should I rent my gear?

You can reserve your gear up to a year out or as few as 10 days before your trip dates.

To get started, book the gear you need for your specific dates. Add gear to your cart and proceed to checkout. Your delivery address can be your home, hotel or even a UPS location. Ensure that you can receive the package 1-3 days in advance of your delivery date as packages can arrive early. A return label will be included with your order, so all you need to do is drop off the package at any UPS location the day of your last rental day or schedule a UPS pickup, #1-800-PICK-UPS.

How do I book gear for the mountain?

Many people rent gear with Burton for use at resorts. We ship to your home, hotel or any UPS location nationwide.

How far in advance should I place my order?

We recommend as soon as you have the dates for your trip. However, we allow customers to order up to a year in advance with the latest checkout 10 days before your trip dates.

I wanted to order for someone else. Can I do that?

Yes! Just be sure to check out and reserve the order with the address of the person the package is going to.

Rental Returns Info

Do I need to clean my rental gear?

No. Just place everything back in its original box, ship it back to us, and we'll take care of the rest. It's as simple as that.

Where do I return my gear?

At any authorized UPS location, UPS affiliate, UPS drop boxes, or schedule a UPS pickup, #1-800-PICK-UPS.

How do I return my gear?

Return your gear by 11:59pm on your Return Date to avoid any late fees. Pack the gear back into the original box, and adhere the included return prepaid return shipping label. Drop everything off at any authorized UPS location, UPS affiliate, drop box, or schedule a UPS pickup, #1-800-PICK-UPS.

I lost or damaged my return label. How do I get a new one?

Send us an email. One of our Gear Rental Guides will email you back with a new one.

Can I get a refund if I return my gear early?

We do not offer refunds for an early return.

Can I extend my rental period for my gear?

You can edit and change your order 10 day before your delivery date. In order to ensure all customers have an exceptional experience, we require you to return your gear within your scheduled rental period to allow for the next customer to receive their gear on time. We currently do not allow for extensions after 10 days before the delivery date or during your rental period.

What happens if I return my order late?

Unfortunately, orders returned to us late have a domino effect - when you return something late, it means the next person who is scheduled to use the gear no longer can.

Gear must be dropped off at any authorized UPS location, UPS affiliate, UPS drop boxes, or scheduled for a UPS pickup, #1-800-PICK-UPS and postmarked by your last rental date. If you do not return your gear by your last rental date, you will be charged $50 per day in addition to the daily rental cost of the gear. If the gear is not returned within 21 days, your credit card will be charged the full retail price of the gear + taxes in addition to the rental cost of the gear and applied late fees.

I accidentally returned my personal gear in my return box. How can I get my items back?

Please note that we are not responsible for any personal gear that you return to us accidentally and we cannot guarantee that we can return it to you. However, we do make an effort to get personal gear returned whenever possible. If you believe you have accidentally returned your personal gear, please contact us right away with as much information as possible to identify your item. The more specific, the more our team can help find your items. Personal gear is only kept in our customer Lost & Found for a maximum of 15 days upon return to our warehouse.
