Large background rentals?

->> I'm looking to rent a large background for a shoot in December. The local place here is Denver doesn't have what I'm looking for. I need at least 15ft wide and 25-30 tall (enough for a full sweep). I haven't decided on what type yet, but I wanted to know any one had any recommendations. Thanks.

->> Why not just buy what you like and sell it afterward? Or, pass along that cost to the client?

I bought 2 20'x10' backdrops for around $600 total a few years ago. I know the company I bought from also sold large 40'x40' as well.

10x24 are also pretty affordable
