EHA HireGuard
Is your hire equipment protected?
When hiring out property ask yourself these questions;
- Does the hirer have insurance cover?
- Is the hirers cover correct?
- Is it safe to rely on your customer’s policy to protect your property?
- Do you always check the hirer’s policy?
- How will claims be settled?
It's also important to remember that many hirers policies will be Contractors Plant or Contract Works with a Hired In Plant Extension where the standard policy excess is £500 or higher. Also not all standard household policies provide cover for Hired in Plant equipment.
