Within our annual and shoot by shoot insurance packages we are able to provide hired equipment insurance to meet the requirements of all the leading hire companies in the UK. When we provide an annual production insurance policy for your production business, we are also able to provide ad hoc extensions to the hired equipment sum insured when necessary for particular shoots.
Hired Photographic Equipment Insurance – things to consider
It is worth checking if you are hiring equipment for your shoot/production, whether you are paying for insurance with the hire company. It is likely you could cover hire equipment more competitively on your own insurance, either annually or on a shoot by shoot basis.
When insuring hired equipment for your shoot/production make sure the cover includes “loss of hire” to the hire company, as it is likely to be your responsibility to cover the potential hired fees the company may have earned whilst the equipment is being replaced or repaired. Our policies includes 13 weeks loss of hire fees as standard when you purchase hired photographic equipment insurance.
