Renting a tuba in New Mexico

Anyone ever rent a tuba in Santa Fe or Albuquerque?
Seems to be very few shops down there, much less with a tuba of any kind to rent out for a couple days.
Thanks! :tuba:

Musical instrument insurance recommendations

Howdy,

What's your favorite instrument insurance provider? Anyone a long-time customer?

Really curious if anyone had an incident where they actually needed to make a claim with their instrument insurer.
I would assume the majority of them are shipping related.

Thank you in advance.
