GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF HIRE REGULATED BY THE CONSUMER CREDIT ACT 1974

1. TERM OF HIRE

Trippy Creations Ltd (“the Owner”) hereby agrees to let on hire and the Hirer agrees to take on hire from Trippy Creations Ltd the products attached to the order form for a term commencing on the date on which the Product is ordered and such product will be subsequently delivered to the Delivery Address (hereinafter called “the Site”). 

The Product shall be returned upon the termination date agreed upon within this Hire Agreement. Notwithstanding notice given and accepted risk, the risk always remains the Hirer’s responsibility whilst the product is within the possession and under the Hirer’s control. 

Trippy Creations Ltd shall not agree to termination unless the product is able to be returned in the same condition as it was at the commencement of the hire period.

2. DELIVERY OF PRODUCT

(a) Acceptance of the product on site shall be deemed to imply the Hirer’s unqualified acceptance of the General Terms and Conditions of Hire stated herein.

(b) The Owner shall arrange for the delivery of the Product to the Site as soon as such Product is paid for and shall have the Product delivered whereupon the Hirer shall become responsible for the Product thereafter until such time as it is returned to the Owner’s premises.

(c) The Hirer acknowledges that, as the provided decor is exclusively available for hire and has been utilised by previous customers, there may be minor imperfections resulting from earlier installations:

Such imperfections may encompass small holes that have occurred where the decor was secured with tiny tacks at key tension points along the edges during previous setups. These minor markings are a normal consequence of the installation process and are not typically noticeable once the decor is properly reinstalled and viewed under UV lighting. 

Trippy Creations Ltd. assures that these aesthetic nuances do not detract from the overall visual impact of the decor and are testament to the durability and extended lifecycle of our quality decorations, which are crafted to withstand multiple uses.

3. OWNERSHIP OF PRODUCT

(a) The Product is and shall at all times remain the property of the Owner. Throughout this Agreement, the word “Owner” shall be deemed to include the Owner in its capacity as ostensible Owner for others.

(b) The Hirer shall not do or omit or suffer to be done or omitted any act or thing whereby the Product may be seized or taken in execution under legal process and shall not without the previous written consent of the Owner permit the Product to pass out of the Hirer’s agents or servants, personal custody and control at the site.

4. DEPOSIT AND RETURN OF DEPOSIT

(a) To secure the hire of Products from Trippy Creations (the "Owner"), the Hirer shall provide a refundable deposit to the Owner prior to the commencement of the Hire Term. The deposit amount is contingent upon the size of the order placed by the Hirer as follows:

(i) Small Hire Deposit: £80.00 for orders comprising up to two (2) individual decorations (for example, 2x 3m rainbow webs).

(ii) Medium & Large Hire Deposits: £100 for orders of bundles where the content exceeds two (2) pieces.

(b) Upon the return of the hired Products and following a satisfactory quality control inspection by the Owner to ensure they are undamaged and in an acceptable condition, the deposit will be refunded to the Hirer.

(c) The deposit will be returned to the Hirer using the same method they used to pay it. The Hirer can choose for the deposit to be refunded either by bank transfer or PayPal, based on the payment details supplied by the Hirer on the form used to submit their hire interest.

(d) The Hirer is advised to ensure that all banking details provided for the refund are accurate and current. The Owner shall not be held liable for any erroneous bank transfers or PayPal payments resulting from incorrect payment details provided by the Hirer.

(e) Once the hired Products have been returned to Trippy Creations, the Hirer shall allow a period of 3-5 business days for the shipment delivery back to the Owner and the subsequent quality control and inspection period. The refund will be initiated directly after this period, provided the Products pass the inspection without need for any deductions as per the Damage Clause in these Terms and Conditions.

(f) If the inspection reveals damages or loss that fall within the stipulations of the Damage Clause, deductions from the deposit will be made accordingly, and the balance, if any, will be refunded to the Hirer under the terms set out herewithin.

(g) The Owner will inform the Hirer once the quality control inspection is complete and will provide details concerning the timing and the amount of the refund to be issued.

5. LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO PRODUCT

(a) The Hirer acknowledges and agrees that any Products received under the Hire Agreement shall be inspected upon delivery and shall be deemed to be in good, operable condition unless the Hirer notifies the Owner within one day of receipt of any defects.

(b) The Hirer accepts full liability for the Products during the Hire Term. In the event that any Product is found to be damaged, defaced, or in a state of disrepair at any point while in the possession of the Hirer or upon the products return to the Owner, the Hirer agrees to assume all costs associated with the repair or replacement of the Product as per Clause 4.

(c) The Hirer agrees that, in the case of damage, the Owner shall assess the extent of the damage and determine at its sole discretion the cost required to repair or replace the Product. The Owner reserves the right to charge the Hirer the full replacement cost of the Product, which shall reflect the current retail price of a new item of the same or comparable quality.

(d) If the damage is found to be intentional or the result of willful neglect, the Owner reserves the right to pursue further legal action in addition to the recovery of costs for repair or replacement.

(e) The provisions of this Damage Clause are in addition to, and do not limit, any other rights or remedies the Owner may have under the Hire Agreement or by law.
