When hiring from London Speaker Hire you will need to provide three forms of identification.
The first ID must be a UK passport which will be held for the duration of the hire. The other two forms of ID needs to be a utility bill or bank statement with your name and address on it. Unfortunately we are unable to accept mobile phone bills.
These ID's will be returned to you upon the return of the equipment.
When hiring equipment we will take a copy of your credit or debit card for authorisation (it will need to be in the same name as your identification). No money will be charged to it but a check will be run to make sure it is a valid card.
For corporate hires please speak to one of our team on 020 3333 4444 who will be happy to run through the requirements.
To make it as easy as possible for you to pay, you can use our secure online payment system (which can be found here) any time of the day or night. This system allows you to pay by debit or credit card as well as by PayPal.
If you would like to pay by bank transfer then please give us a call on 020 3333 4444. Unfortunately we are unable to accept cheques or cash payments.
If you do not have insurance to cover your event then there are many organisations that can assist you with one off policies. One such company is Events Insurance. Events Insurance are not affiliated with London Speaker Hire and we are just providing this as a helpful link.
When requesting insurance please do let us know before you get in touch with the companies and we can give you a total insurable cost for equipment and services.
All the available manuals for our products can be found on the Full Kit List page which can be accessed from the top menu.
Browse to the product that you require the manual for. Underneath you will find three icons. One for the manual, one for the manufacturers product page and the last for a video of the product. Simply click on the appropriate icon.

Yes no problems at all. Our rates are very competitive and start from just £15 + vat.
When using our transport service there must be adequate parking at the destination for a vehicle (we will advise of the size at the time of booking). If we are required to park for a period of time then the cost of parking will need to be covered or permits provided.
As with all companies in our industry, if any fines are incurred whist delivering or collecting equipment and adequate parking was unavailable then the fine will be the responsibility of the hirer.
Our collection and delivery service is to the road side. If you require the equipment to be moved or set up then this is a separate service which needs to be booked and paid for prior to the hire.
We are more than happy to set up the equipment for you. If you just want it connected we can provide this service or should you need a DJ or sound engineer for the entire event then we can assist with this.
All the service are flexible and will be made to fit around your needs. Prices for a sound engineer start from as little as £20 per hour with deals for set periods of time.
If you require this or any other service then please give our team a call on 020 3333 4444 or e-mail us using the form here.
