  • • We walk you through how it all connects before you leave.
  • • ID and address check on collection.
  • • Refundable damage deposit, confirmed on your hire agreement.
  • • The equipment is your responsibility until it's returned, so you'll need your own cover.

  • • Delivery, setup, sound-check and collection included in the quote.
  • • Covered by our Public Liability and Professional Indemnity insurance.

with every hire

No surprises, either end

Cables and stands included

Power leads, XLRs, speaker stands and the adaptors you need — so nothing is missing when you get to the venue.

Checked before every hire

Everything we hire out is tested and checked over before it leaves us, so it arrives ready to use.

A written hire agreement

Dates, return time, deposit and responsibilities all set out in writing before anything is paid.

Kent, London & the South East

Collection from Chatham, Kent, or delivery across Kent, London and the wider South East.

Hire terms, in short

Hire periods run by the day or across a weekend, with the collection and return times agreed in advance. A deposit secures your dates, and dry hire carries a refundable damage deposit. We check ID and address on dry hire collections, and late returns are chargeable at the day rate. Every figure and time is set out on your hire agreement before you pay anything — nothing is added afterwards.
