Transport

Options for delivery and pick up of hired equipment are available for an additional fee. You can already use our transport service at orders from €125,- Excl. VAT. Transport rates are calculated based on delivery during our office hours (09:00 – 17:00h). For delivery and/or pick up outside office hours a surcharge will apply. Delivery and/or pick up appointments outside of office hours need to be made beforehand with one of our office employees.

All HWC equipment and material will be delivered in crates, flight cases and transport covers. These items will remain at the delivery address until the full order is picked up by our transport service. At the time of pick up, all materials need to be in the same order and the same location as the delivery.

Equipment and material will be delivered behind the first door at ground floor level if accessible via street level (no steps or other obstacles). The loading zone and drop-off spot need to have a hard surface (tarmac, tiles or sheets). This also applies to the delivery route.

The distance between the loading bay (our vehicle) and the delivery and/or pick up location cannot exceed 25 meters. In the event that the equipment and material isn’t ready at the time of pick up, or if the venue is closed upon arrival, we will arrange a new appointment with you. Extra charges for transport and material hire apply. Parking costs, if needed, will be invoiced afterwards.

Delivery or pick up will occur between 09:00 – 17:00h with the possibility of delays. You can check one working day before for a time-indication of your delivery/pick up. This time indication is subject to change. Exceedance of this time does not give the client any right towards compensation, suspension or cancellation of the agreement.

Setup & Dismantle service

If you hired equipment over €200,- Excl. VAT and booked transport, we offer the service of setup and dismantle as well! This service is against a surcharge that depends on the quantity of material of your order. We will make an estimate for you regarding the amount of setup and dismantle hours. In the event of delays we will have to charge you with the extra hours. Please note that setup & dismantle costs are calculated based on setup and dismantle during office hours. Outside office hours a surcharge applies.

Our shopping basket will pre-calculate the setup and dismantle costs if you select transport and setup & dismantle.

Show Crew

Show operating crew are available for hire. Prices for show operating crew are tailored to your project. Please contact us for more information. Show crew exclusively operates equipment rented at HWC Events & Rental.
