Sign Gypsies Sioux Falls and Sign Gypsies Big Sioux

 Policies & Procedures

NOBODY likes to read rules and policies, we TOTALLY get it. BUT this information IS important so you can know what to expect from us, and what we also expect from you before you rent a personalized yard greeting!

PLEASE take a minute to get acquainted with how we operate at Sign Gypsies!

*When yard signs are booked &/or paid for, you have agreed to all policies prior to setup*

PAYMENTS & DELIVERY:

  • Preparing a personalized yard greeting sign(e.g. yard greeting signs, yard signs, yard card greetings)takes a lot of prep work to get the details right!  Due to this, payment is required a minimum of 24 hrs prior to delivery of yard greeting.  In the event of non-payment, a cancellation notification will be sent via Square notifying you of the cancellation of greeting.

  • Your personalized yard greeting sign may be modified due to yard size and condition.  If you are unsure if your yard will accommodate the size of personalized yard greeting you've ordered please email us ahead of time with a photo just so we can ensure you've selected an appropriate package.

  • Due to the unique nature of each personalized yard greeting sign setup and # of yard greeting signs booked each day, we can not guarantee a specific delivery/pick up time. We only guarantee that the personalized yard greeting will be delivered within the window specified on your confirmation.

  • There is no need for you to be home during delivery or removal of your personalized yard greeting sign. We will install your yard greeting yard sign quickly and quietly in the best location for aesthetic and installation purposes. 

  • If your personalized yard greeting sign is a surprise for an address other than your own, we require that you please notify someone in that household that we will be on the property during the scheduled window for setup and take down.  This is for our safety but also to help keep the surprise.  By booking the personalized yard greeting sign and proving payment, you agree that we have the permission to be on the property.  Purchaser is responsible for the yard sign while placed in the yard, regardless of if they live at address & should forward our policies to homeowner.

  • If the yard greeting sign rental is a surprise evening setup for another member of your household: please close blinds/drapes during the delivery time window and leave an outside light on for us so we can identify the address easily.

  • Please water your yard in the days leading up to your delivery if it has not rained in several days.  If a 6" screwdriver can easily penetrate the ground, we will have a happy Gypsy! If we are unable to install a personalized yard greeting sign due to ground conditions when we arrive, refunds will not be granted.

  • We cannot put yard greeting signs in pea gravel, concrete, mulch, flower beds, thick landscaping, hard packed soil that has been used as a driveway, for example. We install signs on lawns. We define lawns as unobstructed soil with grass on the top.

  • Please do NOT remove our yard greeting signs from your lawn for ANY reason.  If yard signs need to be taken down before your scheduled removal time, please contact us and we will take care of it ASAP.
