FAQ

BOOKING AND PAYMENT

How can I place a Booking?
It’s fast and easy to place a booking on our website, simply select the package or items you wish to hire and checkout online. Alternatively, you can also call or email to place a booking with one of our team members.
Can I place a Booking instore?
We do not recommend coming instore to place a booking as instore traffic may lead to significant delays in placing a booking in person. The quickest and easiest way to place a booking is online.
What Payment Methods do you accept?
Payment via Visa, Mastercard or AMEX must be made before a booking can be confirmed. We do not accept cash.
Is there a Rental Bond?
Yes, there is a bond for Warehouse pickups ($100 for Non-DJ Equipment, $200 for DJ Equipment) which must be paid via Debit/Credit only (no cash) upon pick-up. This bond only covers fees associated with cleaning, liquid detection label activation or late return fees only and is not sufficient for covering the cost of lost or damaged equipment. There is no bond applicable for delivery bookings.

Note: 99% of our customers receive their bond back in full. All we ask is that the equipment is returned to us on time and in the condition it was received.
How does the Rental Bond process work?
1. The rental bond is pre-authorised via Debit or Credit Card using our instore system. This “freezes” or “holds” a $100 amount on your card for the duration of your hire (this will appear as a ‘Pending’ transaction in your account)
2. When your booking is returned on time and in the condition it was received, our team will send a message to your bank to “unfreeze" the Rental Bond
3. Depending on your banking institution it may take 0-5 business days for your bank to release the Rental Bond. Once they have released it, any evidence of a transaction in your account will simply disappear.
What are your Terms of Hire?
Yes, there is a $100 bond for Warehouse pickups which must be paid via Debit/Credit only (no cash). This bond only covers fees associated with cleaning or late return fees only and is not sufficient for covering the cost of lost or damaged equipment. There is no bond applicable for delivery bookings.

Note: 99% of our customers receive their bond back in full. All we ask is that the equipment is returned to us on time and in the condition it was received.

 

COURIER DELIVERY & RETURN

How does the courier delivery/collection process work?
1. Place your booking online and select a Courier Delivery and/or Return service during checkout.
2. Once your booking has been processed by our team, we’ll finalise delivery dates and timeframes with you and send you a digital copy of our Terms of Hire which must be completed and signed before delivery can take place.
3. On the delivery date, the person who signed the Terms of Hire must be present onsite (with their ID handy) in order for Delivery to occur.
4. After your event, ensure the equipment is packed down as directed ready for collection from a courier.
5. A person must be present at the premises on the date of Collection in order for collection to occur (couriers cannot deliver or collect bookings without somebody present onsite).
