Using our Equipment

- As loss charges can mount up, be it through theft or otherwise, it is in your interest to look after the equipment we have supplied.
Off-hiring
- The equipment is considered to be on hire until you inform us of the date that it is available for collection, or the date you return it to our depot
- We undertake to collect the equipment within 14 days of the off-hire date, during this period it is your responsibility.
- If you are leaving site, please note that we require at least 7 days’ notice to arrange the transport, and we also require you to be on site to ensure there is a safe system of work in place for the loading operation.
- Should we arrive on site to find there is not a safe means of collecting the equipment, we reserve the right not to proceed with the collection and to charge you for the wasted journey.
- Please advise the depot what is to be collected, especially if it is not all the equipment on site and obtain from them an "off-hire number" for your records
