FAQ asked with conference AV hire
Sure, we are on hand to help either design a bespoke package for you or can suggest pre packages of equipment we stock to ensure congruence between your event style and equipment choice.
This entirely depends on what you want to do, for small hires we may advise equipment can fit in a car or small van, others we will quote for a large van delivery and collection
For simple items we can provide instructions, however would generally recommend hiring one of our highly skilled technicians for the event. They can ensure the equipment runs at it’s best and are on hand for any issues such as crashes, freezing and things like microphones squealing or volume adjustment.
