    • Don’t be late. If the meeting organizer is more than 30 minutes late, we reserve the right to cancel the meeting and provide no refund on the spot. If your meeting organizer is going to be late, please call or text 515-207-8105 at least 1 hour prior to the meeting. It's easy. Keep us in the know, please.

    • Cancellation. As long as we are given at least one business day notice of cancellation, we will provide a full credit for future use. The credit can be used towards any meetings booked in future. There are no refunds.

    • Space access. For reservations between 8 AM-5 PM on normal business days, a Gravitate employee should be available on-site at the Des Moines-area locations to let the meeting organizer into the building. For weekend reservations, meetings outside of normal work hours, or meetings at the Jefferson location, Gravitate may offer you the use of our mobile app to access the spaces as your convenience. The doors at Gravitate are locked 100% of the time. Please ensure you have your own team member or meeting participant on hand to let guests in as they arrive. DO NOT prop the door open for any reason. This guideline is in place to ensure the building and members stay as safe and secure as possible.

    • Furniture. Please do not rearrange the furniture without first discussing it with a Gravitate team member. In some cases moving the furniture actually damages it and that's not good for anyone.

    • Dishes. Please bring all dishes and kitchenware to the kitchen and load them in the dishwasher at the end of your meeting.

    • Garbage. You're responsible for the trash you create making its way into the bins. If a bin is provided in your meeting room, please make sure any trash fits nicely within it, otherwise please use the larger bins in the kitchen. If you have a particular large amount (pizza boxes, to-go containers, etc.) please bring the excess amount to the larger bins in the kitchen or ask the Community Manager in the space for instructions. Recycling bins are available in the kitchen at each space and please pay special attention to what can be recycled (details are posted near the bins and it’s never pizza boxes). Do not leave trash in the meeting space.

    • Leave the room as your found it. At the conclusion of your meeting, please make sure that all are displays powered off, networking or HDMI cords and remotes are returned, chairs are pushed in and the tables are wiped down. Additional cleaning supplies can be found in the kitchen and, if needed, each Gravitate location has a vacuum cleaner.

    If you have any questions or need assistance during your meeting, please reach out to the Community Manager at the front desk.

  • Each of Gravitate's Des Moines-area locations has a community manager who is typically haning out at the front desk. They'll be happy to help you find your meeting room and assist you with anything else that you need.

    There's a chance they're away from the desk—probably making coffee or assisting one of our members—so check the kitchen or just hang out for a moment.

    If your rental is outside of normal business hours (or at our Jefferson location) you should have received instructions on how to access the room in your text of email.

    Hit us up at 515-207-8105 if you need help and we'll do our best to get back to you.
