What actually moves your price
- Swap frequency. Weekly vs bi-weekly exchange is the biggest lever.
- Mat count. Multi-mat programs earn bundle pricing.
- Custom logos. One-time production fee, then standard weekly rates.
Watch the contract, not just the rate
The per-item rate is the headline; the money hides in loss & damage billing, delivery and fuel fees, minimums, and automatic escalators. Our guide to contract questions covers what to pin down before signing.
Common questions
Why rent mats instead of buying?
Rented mats are exchanged clean on schedule — bought mats degrade, hold soil, and become a slip liability nobody launders.
Do providers bundle mats with towels or uniforms?
Almost always, and bundling is a good negotiating lever.
