What is included in the rental, and what is charged in addition?
Insurance, return inspection, fuel and cleaning: what you pay for, and how to avoid most of the extra charges.
We want you to know what the rental costs before you collect the equipment. Here is what is included, what is added, and how to avoid most of the extras.
What is included in the rental price
- Equipment that has been checked and is ready to use when you collect it.
- Instruction when you collect. It takes 10–30 minutes.
- Maintenance and repairs due to normal wear and tear. If something breaks because it is worn, that is our responsibility.
- The standard equipment for the machine, for example the digging bucket and grading bucket on the mini excavator.
What is extra
- Insurance. The equipment is insured through us while you have it. The insurance covers sudden and unforeseen damage, and theft. There is an excess in the event of damage.
- Return inspection. The check we do when the equipment comes back, so it is safe for the next person.
- Fuel, oil and antifreeze you use.
- Cleaning, if the equipment is not returned clean.
- Transport, if we deliver and collect. See transport prices.
- Damage not caused by normal wear and tear, and punctures.
The rates for insurance and excess are in the rental terms. Call us and you'll get the total price for your rental before you order.
How to avoid the extras
- Return it full. Then you don't pay for refuelling.
- Return it clean. Paint on the lift and platform, and soil on the mini excavator, must be washed off.
- Report faults straight away. If you notice something wrong, let us know within two working days of collection.
- Lock the equipment. The insurance only covers theft when the equipment is secured. Remove the ignition key, use a hitch lock on trailers, and lock other equipment indoors or with a chain and padlock.
What about the rental period?
The rental price covers one shift per day. Weekend hire runs from Friday afternoon to Monday morning and costs the same as one and a half days. Call us if you finish early or need the equipment for longer.
