Rental rules, documents and deposit values
This page explains reservation, collection, payment, extension and return, with the current equipment deposit-value table.
Reservation, paperwork and payment
A list sent from the calculator is a request. A reservation exists only after written confirmation from the rental team.
Request confirmation
We confirm availability, models and sizes, collection date and time, return deadline, final price and, if required, the prepayment amount and conditions.
Collection documents
Before collection, we complete a rental agreement and an issue-and-return record listing the equipment, quantity and condition. Check the set and record any existing damage before leaving.
Payment and receipt
Payment is made on the confirmed terms. A fiscal receipt is issued after payment. Any booking-specific conditions are recorded in the confirmation and rental agreement.
Prepayment
Prepayment is required only when stated in the written confirmation. Before payment, we state the amount, deadline and cancellation and refund conditions. Without that notice, a request is not treated as a prepaid reservation.
Cancellation and refunds
To cancel, message us in Telegram as early as possible with the booking name and dates. Any prepayment is refunded under the conditions confirmed in writing before payment. A payment is non-refundable only if this was expressly agreed in advance.
No-show or late arrival
If you cannot arrive at the agreed time, tell us in advance. A no-show without notice does not extend the reservation; late collection or rescheduling requires a new availability confirmation.
Equipment deposit values
For easier planning, the table shows approximate whole-dollar equivalents. The final deposit is confirmed with the booking and may change if the exchange rate changes before collection.

Collection and return deadlines
Prices are calculated by calendar rental day, not by each 24-hour period.
Daily 08:00-22:00
- Return summer equipment by 11:00 on the morning after the last paid rental day.
- Next-day equipment may be collected after 16:00 with a confirmed reservation.
Daily 08:00-19:00
- Return winter equipment by 19:00 on the last paid rental day.
- A reservation is confirmed after the agreed prepayment. If the customer does not arrive, the reservation is cancelled; documented actual expenses may be deducted and the balance is returned.
- One 10% winter discount applies from four rental days or for more than four complete sets. Discounts do not stack.
Damage, loss and return
Existing wear is recorded before collection. After return, the issued set is checked with the customer.
Normal wear
Normal wear from correct use is not treated as damage. Return the complete set clean and in a condition that can be inspected.
Damage
Repair cost is based on the actual damage. Typical published charges appear below. Unlisted damage is assessed after inspection and, where needed, diagnosis or a repair estimate.
Loss or damage beyond repair
Replacement cost is payable. If one item from a pair is lost and cannot be replaced separately, the replacement cost may be based on the pair.
