The questions we get asked most. If yours is not here, call (02) 9197 4866.
A hire day runs from collection or delivery until 10:30am the next day (or 10:30am on your return date). Additional days are charged at 50% of the day rate, so a three day hire costs twice the daily figure rather than three times.
Yes. Every price on this site is a day rate and excludes GST. Anything priced per hour is marked as such.
Yes. Collection is from Kingsford in Sydney or Port Melbourne in Victoria, by appointment. Everything on the site is available for collection except items that come with an assistant, such as photo booths.
Delivery starts at $100 within 10km of either warehouse. Beyond that it depends on distance, access and how much gear is going, so it is quoted once we know the venue.
We can set up and pack down any item. Staging, trussing, LED screens and dance floors are normally installed by our crew. Photo booth hire always includes an assistant.
A damage waiver of 3% of the hire is added to every booking. It covers accidental damage to equipment during normal use, so you are not charged for repair or replacement if something goes wrong in the ordinary course of an event. It does not cover theft, loss, water damage, misuse, or gear left unattended, and it is not insurance — it does not cover your own property or anyone else. Most venues require public liability cover, and that remains yours to arrange.
Yes, a bond is held against a credit card for the duration of the hire and released when the equipment comes back in the condition it went out.
For weekends in peak season — October through April, and December — as early as you can. Dance floors, photo booths and staging go first.
Yes. DJs, MCs, saxophone, bouzouki, bongo and toubeleki players, dancers, magicians and bands. These are quoted separately from equipment hire.
Yes, and it is something we do often. We can supply the production and the musicians together — bouzouki, bongos, toubeleki, Lebanese drummer, Bollywood and Samba performers.
Yes, with stock in both. Sydney is Kingsford, Melbourne is Port Melbourne.
Uplights run on 10 amp power and measure roughly 15 x 10 x 10cm. We also have battery-powered uplights that need no power run at all, which matters in heritage venues and marquees.
Only if your TV has an RCA input. Many newer sets do not. If yours does not, hire the karaoke package that includes a screen and it will work out of the box.
