Equipment hire

Trade hire for the industry

Short of LED, lighting or sound for a busy weekend? We support production companies, venues and AV suppliers with dry hire and sub-hire on trade terms.

Kit when you need it

  • Production companies
  • AV suppliers
  • Venues & theatres
  • Event agencies
  • Touring crews
  • Festivals

Every production company hits weekends where the warehouse is empty and the diary is full. We're the Midlands partner you can call for LED walls, lighting, sound, staging, truss and power on trade terms, all prepped and ready for your own team to deploy.

Our base in Long Eaton is a few minutes from the M1 at junction 25, between Nottingham and Derby. That makes us quick to reach from the whole region and an easy collection for crews travelling up and down the country.

Everything is prepped, tested and packed by people who use the same kit on our own shows. Browse the full catalogue and build a quote list, or call us with a kit list and dates.
