2. PAYMENTS

• The Company will submit a written quotation which the Hirer shall accept in writing: the absence of such written confirmation however shall not invalidate the Contract and all hired goods from the Company shall be subject to these terms and conditions.

• The hirer shall pay to the company 50% deposit at the time of making a confirmation to secure the hired goods, and the remaining 50% must be paid 4 weeks prior to the event date. If the required delivery date is within 4 weeks of placing your order, full payment will be required, however payments can be arranged to be paid in instalments upon agreement with the Company.

• No refunds or credits will be issued for any items that are returned unused.

3. DELIVERY AND COLLECTION SERVICE

• The Hirer is responsible for the hired goods from time of delivery until collection, and shall not sell, pledge, keep or otherwise deal with or part possession with the hired goods. The Hirer should therefore make every effort to ensure that the hired goods are kept dry and are retained in a secure place until this time. Hired goods that are not returned will be charged at the price quoted in the List of Charges.

Any shortfalls or damages to the order must be notified within 24 hours of the delivery. Any discrepancies that are not notified during this period will be exempt from any refund/credit.
• The Company avers that effort will be made when delivering hired goods to park its vehicle/s without contravening parking restrictions. If where the Company is required to deliver falls outside this category (i.e. red routes, double yellow lines, resident’s parking, etc) and a penalty charge is incurred, this will be payable by the Hirer.

4. REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT

• A refundable deposit must also be provided with the balance payment 4 weeks prior to the dispatch of the hired goods. The sum of money payable will be dependent upon the value of the goods being supplied, and will be held as a deposit against the safe and prompt return of the goods under hire. A higher refundable deposit is taken where clients pick up items themselves.
• The replacement cost of all losses and damage will be deducted from the refundable deposit. A full list of charges is available on request.
• In the event of the tables and chairs not stacked ready for collection, a portion of the deposit will be withheld.
• Any stains or damage caused to hired goods especially seat pads, beyond reasonable wear and tear, will be the responsibility of the customer.  Any repair work or cleaning necessary as a result will be chargeable at £2 per seat pad. This will be deducted from the Deposit before it is returned.
• Substitute items will not be accepted and all damaged items remain the property of iAM Wedding Hire and should therefore be returned.

• You will incur a cancellation charge based upon the value of the balance owing. This amount is dependent upon the length of notice we receive from you i.e.:
