Terms of Hire

Last updated: 24 July 2026

These are the terms on which we hire our tableware, glassware and equipment to you. They’re a starting framework — please treat the bracketed figures as placeholders to confirm, and have the final version reviewed before you rely on it.

01Quotes and booking

A quote is an estimate and is confirmed as a booking only once you accept it in writing and we acknowledge it. Availability is confirmed at the point of booking, not enquiry.

02Deposit and payment

We may ask for a deposit of [e.g. 25%] to secure your date, with the balance due [e.g. 7 days] before delivery. Payment terms will be set out on your quote.

03Delivery, collection and set-down

Delivery and collection charges depend on your venue and are shown on your quote. Please make sure items are ready and accessible for collection at the agreed time; additional charges may apply for delays or re-visits.

04Care, loss and breakage

Items remain our property throughout the hire. You’re responsible for them from delivery until collection. Breakages, losses or damage will be charged at [replacement rate] per item. Items should be scraped and returned in the containers provided; a cleaning charge may apply otherwise.

05Cancellation

Cancellation terms and any charges are set out in [your cancellation schedule]. Please let us know as early as possible if your plans change.

06Liability

Our liability is limited as set out in these terms and does not exclude anything that cannot lawfully be excluded. Nothing here affects your statutory rights.
