Renegade Tarps and Drop Cloths Terms of Sale

Tarp Use Guidelines

The Renegade Tarp (the “tarp” or the “Product”) is designed for outdoor use, offering waterproof protection, superior UV resistance, and an industry-leading strength-to-weight ratio. The exclusive rust-proof, eco-friendly grommets are larger and stronger compared to the traditional unreinforced metal grommets. However, even our tarps have their limitations. For the best experience, please follow these tarp use guidelines:

  • Secure the tarp at the grommets
  • Do not cut or puncture the tarp
  • Keep the tarp away from sharp edges
  • The tarp is best used in static conditions. However, if you plan to use your tarp in a situation where it will experience movement (e.g., covering a load on a moving vehicle), note that wear and tear due to abrasion is normal and unavoidable under these circumstances and our warranty does not cover wear due to abrasion. Common sources of abrasion include:
    • Flapping against a surface such as a tarp used over a trailer.
    • Ropes, ratchet straps, tie-downs, or bungee cords that are stretched across the tarp
    • Wind causing the tarp to hit against a hard or sharp object

Note that in the future we will be offering patch kits that can help to reinforce or repair abraded tarp areas. Contact us at tarps@renegadeplastics.com if you’re interested in receiving information about purchasing a patch kit when they become available!

Tarp Returns

If you are not satisfied with your tarp or drop cloth (collectively the “Product”) for any reason before use, we are happy to take it back. Returns and exchanges must be made within 30 days of delivery date. To initiate a return or exchange, customers must contact Renegade Plastics Corporation at returns@renegadeplastics.com to obtain a return authorization. Only clean, un-used Products may be returned or exchanged. If you believe that your tarp or drop cloth is defective, please see our Warranty Policy. Custom tarp or drop cloth orders may not be returned or exchanged.

Customers are responsible for sending return items to Renegade Plastics Corporation. Non-prepaid shipments will be rejected. Shipping is non-refundable and a 10% restocking fee will be applied at time of refund.

All items returned should be sent back with their original purchase receipt and the return authorization information. Items sent back without either of these will not be processed and funds will not be returned.

The following items are NOT eligible for return, refund, and/or exchange:

  • Items used or altered in any way. If you believe your tarp or drop cloth was defective, please see our Warranty Policy.
  • Custom & special products
  • Items sent back without authorization from returns@renegadeplastics.com

Refunds for items returned under qualified terms and within allowed return duration will be credited back to the original form of payment. Credit issued back to credit cards will be reflected on your statement based on your billing cycle as processed by your bank or card issuer.

Tarp Warranty

We stand behind our Renegade Tarps (the “tarp”) and Renegade Drop Cloths (the “drop cloth”), collectively the “Product”, with an express Limited Warranty and we make it easy to submit a claim if you believe you have a warranty issue. We also offer a unique program to have your tarp repaired or to receive a repair kit in lieu of a replacement. This fits within our mission to reduce plastic waste by reducing the amount of material sent to our recycling partners. The terms and limitations of the warranty are detailed below. No representative, salesperson, distributor, or any other person is authorized to vary or change the terms of this Limited Warranty or to make any other warranty or promise on behalf of Renegade with respect to the Product.

Limited Warranty and Duration: Renegade provides this Limited Warranty only to the original purchaser of the Product. Renegade warrants that its Product will be free from defects in parts and workmanship for six (6) months from the date of purchase (the “Warranty Period”) if used under normal operating conditions and in accordance with instructions shown in our tarp use guidelines.

Limited Warranty Coverage and Exclusive Remedy: If, after inspection by Renegade, Renegade determines that the tarp has a defect in parts and/or workmanship, Renegade will send a replacement tarp to the Buyer at no cost to the Buyer.  Alternatively, if, after inspection by Renegade, Renegade determines that the tarp can be repaired, Renegade, in lieu of providing a replacement tarp, may offer to repair the tarp at no cost to the Buyer  or send the Buyer a repair kit at no cost to the Buyer. It will be at the Buyer’s discretion to accept the repair, the repair kit, or the replacement tarp. These remedies are the exclusive remedies for breach of this Limited Warranty.

Warranty Exclusions: This Limited Warranty does not cover and Renegade shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) damage to the tarp from any external source such as cleaners, disinfectants, chemicals, suntan lotions, body oils, or flora and fauna; (b) gradual fading or discoloration from atmospheric pollution or other debris; (c) damage caused by excessive weather events such as hurricanes, tornadoes, or high winds; (d)  damage from abrasion such as from ropes, tie downs, or other fixtures that could rub against the tarp fabric; or (e) damage caused by abuse or misuse of the tarp.

How to Make a Warranty Claim: To qualify for warranty coverage, any claim for breach of this Limited Warranty must be made promptly after the claimant discovers or should have discovered the alleged breach but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the claimant discovers or should have discovered the alleged breach and in no event may claims be submitted more than thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Warranty Period.  To initiate a warranty claim, please send an email to returns@renegadeplastics.com.  Before honoring a warranty claim, Renegade reserves the right to ask the claimant for additional information including photos of the suspected defect, proof of purchase, and a description of the suspected defect. Make sure to include a valid email address and a contact phone number.

If Renegade confirms the defect and if the claimant elects to replace the Product, Renegade will provide the claimant with a shipping label for return of the Product. The claimant must ship the Product to Renegade within thirty (30) days of the request.  Claimant’s failure to return the Product within this thirty (30) day period will void the Limited Warranty and Renegade shall have no further liability with respect thereto.

WARRANTY DISCLAIMER AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: EXCEPT AS SET FORTH HEREIN, RENEGADE MAKES NO OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE PRODUCT.  TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTY AND REMEDIES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES.  EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTY SET FORTH HEREIN, RENEGADE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

RENEGADE’S LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE REMEDIES PROVIDED HEREIN.  RENEGADE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE OR RESPONSIBLE TO ANY PERSON OR ENTITY FOR LABOR COSTS, ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR THE INABILITY TO USE THE PRODUCT COVERED BY THIS LIMITED WARRANTY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR PERSONAL INJURY, DAMAGE FOR LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF USE, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR ANY OTHER LOSS IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THE PURCHASE OR USE OF RENEGADE’S PRODUCT, WHETHER RESULTING FROM ANY BREACH OF WARRANTY, BREACH OF CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR UNDER ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY.  RENEGADE’S TOTAL CUMULATIVE AND MAXIMUM LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS OF ANY KIND SHALL NOT EXCEED THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE PRICE PAID TO RENEGADE FOR THE PRODUCT AT ISSUE IN THE CLAIM.

Some states do not allow limitations on, or the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusions may not apply to you.  This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.

Limitation on Time to File a Lawsuit: All legal actions filed in federal or state court against Renegade for breach of warranty, breach of contract, negligence, strict liability, or otherwise must be commenced against Renegade within one (1) year of the date that claimant discovered or should have discovered a breach of this Limited Warranty or any other alleged defect upon which such action is based and in no event may legal actions be commenced more than one (1) year after the expiration of the Warranty Period.

Dispute Resolution and Governing Law and Venue: This Limited Warranty shall be interpreted, governed by, and enforced in accordance with the procedural and substantive laws of the State of Wisconsin without regard to any choice of law principle that would call for the application of another state’s law. Any dispute arising from the terms of this Limited Warranty or related to the Product shall be resolved in a federal or state court located in Brown County, Wisconsin. Buyer agrees that such courts have jurisdiction to interpret and enforce the provisions herein. Buyer waives all objections as to personal jurisdiction or venue in any of the above courts.
