What Is a Damage Waiver?

A Damage Waiver is an optional protection that reduces your financial responsibility if hired equipment is accidentally damaged during normal, proper use.

It’s designed to give you peace of mind while you get the job done — without the stress of large, unexpected repair costs.

Why We Offer a Damage Waiver

Traditional hire companies often rely on large deposits and strict damage rules.

We take a smarter approach.

Our Damage Waiver helps:

Protect you from high repair bills
Protect our equipment fairly
Replace old-fashioned cash deposits
Keep hire simple and accessible

It’s part of how we make hiring easier and more transparent.

What the Damage Waiver Covers

When selected, the Damage Waiver typically covers:

Accidental damage during normal use
Fair wear and tear
Minor mechanical faults caused during operation

This means small mishaps don’t turn into big problems.

What the Damage Waiver Does NOT Cover

The Damage Waiver does not cover:

Loss, theft, or disappearance of equipment
Deliberate damage or misuse
Damage caused by negligence or unsafe operation
Failure to follow operating instructions
Use outside the agreed hire terms

In these cases, the hirer may be liable for repair or replacement costs.

Is the Damage Waiver Mandatory?

No.

The Damage Waiver is optional, but strongly recommended — especially if you’re new to hiring equipment or want extra reassurance.

Choosing not to add a Damage Waiver means you may be fully responsible for any damage costs.

How Much Does It Cost?

The Damage Waiver cost is shown clearly during checkout before you pay.

There are:

No hidden charges
No surprise add-ons
No fine print traps

You always know what you’re agreeing to.

How It Works in Practice

If equipment is returned damaged:

We assess the damage fairly and professionally
We confirm whether it falls within Damage Waiver cover
Covered damage is reduced or waived in line with the policy
Any excluded damage is explained clearly

No drama. No confusion.

Why This Benefits You

The Damage Waiver:

Reduces risk
Removes fear of the unknown
Supports our no-deposit model
Encourages fair use without penalties

It’s there to support you, not catch you out.

The Simple Version

The Damage Waiver exists so:

Accidents don’t become expensive
Hiring stays affordable
You can focus on the job, not the risk

Clear. Fair. Practical.
