We have a nominal daily hire rate for each item of equipment and our weekly rate is usually three times the daily rate. Our engineering and crew rates depend on what we need to provide for the event. We offer further equipment discounts up to 40% for longer hire and tours, and for complete packages. We try to charge for sound equipment for the days in use for the actual event. So if you need it say for a Saturday event but would like it delivered on Friday and collected on Monday, to give time for setup, rehearsals and breakdown, then we understand, and provide for that on our quote.
Can you provide crew and engineers
We are an act that needs stage and light as well as sound, can you provide ?
We have ample staging and lighting to compliment our sound equipment for ‘one stop shop’ requirements for smaller events such as presentations, or a 5 piece band, or similar performance. For larger events we provide sound only, and would work with your staging and lighting teams.
As the equipment is highly specialised and technical we aim where possible to be fully involved in doing our part to transport and provide operational support during the hire of the equipment so you can achieve the best results. This is why we offer ‘wet’ and ‘assisted dry’ hire options. We may ‘dry’ hire to other professionals or businesses where we have developed a relationship.
If we are not on location for the hire, then call our telephone support (01872 572662) in the first instance. If we can’t solve the issue over the phone then we can attend the location and solve it free of charge.
The equipment I'm looking for is not shown, can you provide it?
If you cannot find what you’re looking for in the Equipment Hire shop then we may still be able to provide it. If it’s something ideal for regular hire we may decide to stock it. Please enquire by email.
This is usually not a problem provided the equipment is not required again too soon. Just let us know as soon as possible.
