By hiring products from The Vintage Table, you agree with our terms and conditions.
Items borrowed for photographic or styling purposes remain covered under these T&Cs.
Hire Period
Our hire period is 1 - 3 days. We can deliver the day before, and collect the day after your event. Please contact us for longer periods, as late returns will incur a fee charged at 25% total hire per day.
Product Choice
Viewing is by appointment only, prior to your event. We are also happy to select items for you.
Pricing
Our full pricelist is on our website.
Payment can be made by internet transfer, cheque or cash. Items can be picked or delivered after full payment of your invoice.
Payment and Deposit
We require a 30% deposit to confirm your booking, with the balance paid one week before your event.
A $100 bond / damage deposit is included with the final balance, which is refunded when all hire items have been returned and checked for damage.
Any damages will be paid from the bond. If damage / loss is greater than the bond, the hirer will pay the balance.
Delivery and Collection
An address for collection will be on your invoice.
Delivery charges are calculated on distance to travel. Please check items on delivery, and advise us of any problem immediately.
Wash Up and Care
Vintage china is fragile and more easily damaged than modern china, so please take care handling.
After your event, rinse and repack items as they were received. If you are returning items 2 or more days after your event, we will ask you to hand wash them.
Vintage linen requiring more than a standard wash to remove stains (ie soaking and additional washings) will incur an additional laundering charge.
** Please DO NOT put any of our items in the microwave, oven or dishwasher **
