Your project, on one page

A proper plan.
Before the hire clock starts.

Use this brief in an enquiry ↗

Before you commit

I’ve measured the area and access. I’ll confirm equipment suitability with a supplier. I’ll check all charges and the return deadline. I’ve planned collection or delivery. I’ll get the machine instructions and training.

A checklist does not establish safety or authorise work. Follow supplier instructions and obtain qualified advice where needed.
