You also want to make sure you're talking to at least a store manager, if not the owner. The place I get my kegs from, they have a sign on their wall that says "no deposit refund after 14 days on kegs", but I'm in there often enough that the guys that work there all know my face, the owner knows my name, and I know his. I've never returned a keg within 14 days and never lost my deposit. I doubt there's any kind of state law mandating this 10 day thing in Indiana.
I think this may be your best option. I have a similar situation here in Okinawa. I think Im the only person in thousands of miles with a kegerator so I ran into problems. I went to the Officers club on base and asked to speak to the food and beverage manager. I explained my intent and pointed out that I would be a repeat customer for a long time and gave him all of my contact information including my First Sargeant's number (big scary boss guy for those of you that may not know) . With a handshake and a friendly smile to the workers when I pick up my full kegs every week, they have made me an exception to policy and my beer flows cold, perfect, and delicious.
