Terms & Conditions of HIRE
Please ensure that you read the Terms and Conditions of hire. By paying for and hiring from Vitrine Hire (La Brocante Limited), you agree to the Terms and Conditions as outlined below.
All furniture hired remains the property of Vitrine (La Brocante Limited) (hereafter Vitrine).
The hirer is responsible for all furniture during the hire period, including any damage, breakage or loss.
Prices are excluding GST and delivery. GST will be added to the final invoice, and delivery will be quoted if required.
Deposit
A 25% NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT IS REQUIRED TO SECURE THE BOOKING. The balance of the hire agreement is to be paid to Vitrine 7 days before the hire period.
Bond
A $500 bond covers damage repairs but not the loss/left replacement. Just so you know, your card will not be charged unless both parties agree after discussing repair costs or, in the rare case of replacement, other charges may apply.
Cancellation
In the event of a cancellation before seven days by the hirer to the hire agreement, a loss of the 25% deposit will apply. The hire fee will not be refunded if cancelled within seven days of the hire agreement.
Changes are acceptable within reason; however, the 25% deposit will be lost if the furniture is cancelled within 60 days of the event.
Hire period
Prices are quoted for a 4-day hire period. Please contact us if you require an extension.
If the furniture is not returned within the hire period as agreed between Vitrine and the hirer, a late return penalty charge may apply to compensate Vitrine for any losses incurred.
Condition of furniture for hire
All furniture hired from Vitrine must be returned in the same condition as the one dispatched by Vitrine Hire. Please ensure the furniture is wiped clean and any candle wax is removed.
The Vintage German Trestle Sets are suitable for outdoor use and can, therefore, be used in the rain.
To the exclusion of the Vintage German Trestle Sets, please ensure that any furniture hired from Vitrine Hire becomes wet. Any water damage to the furniture incurred during the hire period will be liable to charges and replacement costs.
If the furniture is not returned by the hirer to Vitrine in the same condition as dispatched and there has been damage to and on the furniture, repair costs will be deducted from the $500 bond held by Vitrine Hire and charged to the hirer’s credit card as provided below.
Repair costs will reflect the damage caused, including time spent cleaning the furniture. Any repair costs will be discussed with the hirer before a charge is made to the hirer’s credit card.
If the furniture is not returned due to theft, loss, or other causes, the hirer will be liable to pay the total retail price of the furniture less than the hire fee. If the furniture is not replaced, up to $1000 per item may be charged to cover the loss of future bookings. If you wish to discuss this further, please get in touch with Vitrine.
Transportation
The furniture's transport is to be arranged either directly with Vitrine Hire or an external transporter. Please note that our furniture must travel under sufficient cover and stay dry during transport.
Health and Safety
Vitrine is not liable for the health and safety of the persons using these vintage items during the hire period. All care must be taken to ensure that all guests and furniture users are aware of the delicate nature of these vintage items.
Vitrine’s Terms and Conditions are subject to change at any time.
Thank you for your understanding and for helping us ensure that our furniture is well cared for for many more years.
