Ask for a "minimum service charge" rather than a deposit at the time the invoice is written up. Since its a service charge implying services rendered rather than just a deposit it can be legally considered as completely non refundable. So even if they never pick it up, you have some money to cover a small amount of expenses.
Also have them sign a separate document explaining that after you contact them to let them know the set is finished that they have 30 days - and afterwords if you don't hear from them its yours to do with what they want. Give them a copy of it to go along with the claim check. This will greatly lessen the possibility that they can pull something on you if you sell it - then they decide to pick it up a month later! It has to be a separate document or it technically isn't legal - or so I'm told.
