FAQs

Find answers to commonly asked questions about our services to help you understand what to expect.

Do you help with wireless frequency setup?

Yes. For single kits we can provide a recommended frequency/channel. For larger systems or critical events, we recommend an operator or pre‑coordination.

Will wireless microphones work at my venue?

Usually yes, but performance depends on location, other RF activity, and how many wireless systems are in use. Tell us the venue and we’ll advise the best frequency plan.

Are batteries included with wireless gear?

Battery requirements vary by kit. We’ll confirm what’s included and what you should bring. Spare batteries can be supplied on request.

Can I bundle multiple items together?

Absolutely. Bundles are common (e.g., light + stand + sandbags). Tell us what you’re doing and we’ll recommend a suitable kit.

How do I book a hire item?

Send an enquiry with the item(s), dates, and location. We’ll confirm availability, pricing, and pickup/delivery details.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We carry appropriate business and equipment insurance. If a venue requires certificates, we can provide them on request.

Am I responsible for damage or loss during hire?

Yes. The hirer is responsible for loss, theft, or damage during the hire period. We recommend appropriate insurance for larger hires.

Is a bond or security deposit required?

Some items require a refundable bond/security deposit. We’ll confirm the amount (if any) before your hire starts.

Do I need to provide ID for hire?

For some hires we may request photo ID (and/or business details) to confirm the booking and protect high‑value equipment.

Can you set up and pack down the equipment?

Yes. We can supply an operator/technician for setup, operation, and pack‑down for complex or mission‑critical setups.

Do you offer delivery?

Yes. Delivery is available across the Gold Coast and surrounds (Brisbane and further by request). Fees depend on distance and timing.

What happens if I return equipment late?

Late returns may incur additional hire charges and can affect other bookings. Please contact us immediately if you’re running late.

Where do I pick up and return hire equipment?

Pickup/return details are confirmed at booking. If you need delivery or after‑hours arrangements, let us know.

Do you provide basic instructions at pickup?

Yes. We’ll run through setup and operation for the gear you’re hiring and answer any questions before you leave.

Can I extend my hire if I need it longer?

Often yes, depending on upcoming bookings. Contact us as early as possible so we can confirm an extension.

Can I hire for multiple days or longer periods?

Yes. Multi‑day and longer hires are available. Let us know your dates and we’ll confirm availability and pricing.

What is included with a standard hire?
