Rental FAQs
How do I make a booking for rental equipment?
Easy! Simply book online. You must book any equipment through our website.
What do I need to bring in order to rent?
Customers renting for the first time will need to provide the following proof of identity:
- New Zealand passport, or foreign passport with a New Zealand Resident or Permanent Resident Visa. We cannot accept driver's licenses.
- Credit card in the Hirer’s name
Please note that a bond of 50% RRP of rented item(s) may be required for customers unknown to the store/don't have a NZ passport.
IMPORTANT: Account holders are responsible for all equipment hired, and equipment may not be hired on behalf of anyone else. If you are hiring on behalf of a company you must be an authorised person or director of the company. Credit cards will not be accepted for payment unless payment is completed in store.
I don't live in Auckland. Can I still rent equipment?
Yes, however you will need to extend your rental period by 4 days to allow for time the equipment is on the courier. In addition, there will be a return shipping fee to pay.
Is the equipment insured?
Yes, our equipment is insured for accidental damage. Loss and theft is not covered and in such an event the hirer will be liable for the value of replacement.
This cover excludes damage caused by misuse or negligence, operation of the equipment in a manner other than for which the equipment was intended, use of the equipment during a period other than specified in the hire agreement, theft, and fraud.
If during your rental a mishap occurs that affects our equipment, the hirer is liable for the repair or replacement the item(s), up to the insurance excess of $750.
At this time we do not offer an option for lowered insurance excess.
If you are travelling overseas, you are required to hold your own insurance to cover any loss or damage.
