If you are visiting us for the first time or you don’t have a trade account then you will need a valid form of photo ID i.e passport or drivers license. The address needs to correspond with your current home address. We will also require a valid credit or debit card which we can use for security deposit purposes.

We can ask for a weeks hire upfront by way of deposit. However we are usually happy with a blank swipe of a credit or debit card. This will depend on whether you have hired from us before and the value of the item you require.

Most products can be hired by the day or the week.
Definitions are as follows:
– Minimum hire* – Duration of 4 hours. Must be either a morning or afternoon.
– One day – any period not exceeding 24 hours.
– Weekend – from 08:00 Saturday to 09:00 on the following Monday. If available, equipment can be collected/delivered late on Friday afternoon.
– Week – any period of 7 consecutive days, expiring at close of business on the 7th day, i.e. one week hire commencing on a Tuesday terminates at close of business on the following Monday.

* Delivery and Collection services do not apply with minimum hires.

We offer an economical delivery service for hire periods of 24 hours and longer. Due to logistics considerations, it is not normally available for the 4-hour hire period, although it may be possible in certain circumstances; please enquire when booking.

Please note that delivery charges are quoted excluding VAT.

All hires are charged on a ‘time out, not time used’ basis. therefore if you have had the items on hire for the weekend you will be charged 2 days hire regardless of the time you have used the machines for.

All our machinery is hired out in a clean and presentable manner. Although we appreciate that it is not brand new, we do expect our equipment to be treated with due care and attention and ask that it is returned to us in a similar state you received it.

If, on receipt of the equipment we deem that no effort has been made or there is excess waste on the machinery we will apply a cleaning charge to cover the labour required to return it to a fit state.

If the machine is damaged as a result of ‘fair wear and tear’ then you will not be considered at fault for this. If damage has been caused as a result of negligence, user error or vandalism then you will be charged in full for the costs incurred including any labour which may be required.

No, VAT is additional to the published hire rates at the prevailing rate.

Yes we do. If you have been or think you may be a regular customer then it may be easier to open a monthly credit account with us. You will be invoiced monthly and have a standard 30 days nett credit account with us (subject to satisfactory references)

All our fleet is tested, cleaned and serviced after each hire. This is documented and recorded by our trained members of staff. If, in the unlikely event that a machine breaks down during your hire, phone us immediately and we will arrange a suitable replacement tool to be swapped over for you.

No. You are responsible for the goods whilst they are in your care. If you wish, we are able to add a loss and damage waiver to the hire of 10% of the weekly hire rate. This must be taken out on commencement of hire. Speak to us for more information.

Safety is paramount for us.

Our trained staff will be happy to show you how to use the equipment safely before you take it away. We also stock all the common types of PPE to protect you during use.

We are also members of the Hire Association Europe (HAE) and have held their safety accreditation for many years.
