What happens at handover

Checked before it leaves.

The same basic process applies whether the equipment is delivered or collected.

01

Confirm the customer

Booking details, identity and approved handover location are checked.

02

Inspect the equipment

Condition, controls, accessories and visible marks are reviewed and recorded.

03

Confirm safe transport

Equipment must be loaded, secured and carried in a suitable vehicle.

04

Provide guidance

The customer is shown the QR code, controls and essential safety information.

05

Complete the handover

Supplied items, return time and customer acceptance are confirmed.

Customer responsibilities

Be ready for the handover.

Be present

The named customer must attend unless another arrangement has been approved.

Bring identification

Required ID must match the customer and booking information.

Use a suitable vehicle

Equipment must fit safely and remain properly secured during transport.

Provide safe access

Delivery routes and loading areas must be safe, clear and reasonably accessible.

Arrive on time

Late arrival may reduce the available handover time or require rearrangement.

Contact us if delayed

Early warning gives the best chance of rearranging without further disruption.

30

Collection includes a 30-minute grace period.

Customers collecting equipment will have a 30-minute grace period after the agreed collection time. After that period, the appointment may be treated as missed and rearrangement may be required. Repeated delays or missed appointments may affect future bookings.
