Whenever you hire any equipment, whether you hire your equipment from O’Grady Plant Hire or any other plant hire company, you are responsible for any loss or damage to the equipment.

This is standard within all hire contracts. However, this is not always made clear and it is important that you, the “hirer” is adequately covered for loss or damage to the “hired in” equipment.

As members of the HAE (Hire Association Europe), O’Grady Plant Hire is able to offer Hire Secure Loss and Damage Waiver to cover our equipment whilst on hire.

For a small percentage of the net hire charges (15% + VAT) this waiver covers you against loss or damage from the moment you take possession of the equipment to the moment it is returned or collected by our own transport.

In the event that you are unable to supply satisfactory level of hired in plant insurance cover. We reserve the right to apply the 15% charge of the net hire costs.
