EXPLANATION OF THE RENTAL PROCESS
Beneath the pink banner you will see the breakdown of costs for renting an instrument and the cost of the Accessories Package. The Accessories Package is a set of items required by your child’s band directors to set your child up with the tools necessary to learn how to play, practice, clean, and care for the instrument. The cost is a special package price offered by Portman’s. Later in this process you will upload debit/credit card information to allow Portmans Music Superstore to process a one-time payment for the Accessories package and to process the payment for the Down Payment and Monthly Maintenance. This will be charged to the card within 1-3 business days. The next charge you will receive on this card will be after the instrument is delivered to the school. These charges will appear monthly until the instrument is returned to an Educational Representative of Portmans Music Superstore.
To create the account, you click on the bold-faced words in the pink banner, “Create and Account”.
