-
If pick-up/start point of hire is within a 15km / 20 min radius of Hastings St, no ‘travel time’ is added.

- Full balance to be paid at least seven days prior to the event.
If you cancel more than 28 days before the date of the booking, you will receive a 100% refund of your deposit.
If full balance is not paid seven days before the booking hire date, the booking will be cancelled. The 50% deposit will be returned minus a ‘lost booking/admin fee’ of $100, which can be used as a credit towards a future booking (to be used within one year)
If you cancel between 28 days and 7 days before the date of the planned event, the 50% deposit will be returned minus a ‘lost booking/admin fee’ of $100, which can be used as a credit towards a future booking (to be used within one year).
