Terms & Conditions
1. General
1.1 - Our studio is a creative space for dry hire. This means we do not provide staff or assistants to set up or operate the studio space or any equipment supplied with each booking.
1.2 - The Hiree confirms they obtain the required skills to operate all equipment and studio facilities provided.
2. Loading In and Loading Out
2.1 - Load in and load out times are a part of your scheduled booking, so please be aware of this. The Hiree agrees to stick to their allocated booking times, meaning they will be loaded in and loaded out within these time frames.
2.2 - If a Hiree finds they need to use the studio longer than initially booked, they must contact staff to arrange it. If a staff member cannot be reached for some strange reason, the Hiree agrees to be loaded out by the end of their previously booked time. Additional studio time will be charged at $88 per hour depending on availability
3. Storage for studio equipment, props, furniture etc.
3.1 - All studio equipment, props and furniture have a specific location where these things live within the studio. The Hiree agrees to return all studio gear to its original location at the end of their booking. This means lighting, stands, extension leads, paper rolls, furniture, props, kitchenware, clothes racks, the lot. If you use or move something within the studio, return it to its original place at the end of your booking
4. Studio Access Responsibilities
4.1 - The Hiree will receive a text message to their mobile phone one hour prior to their scheduled session. This will have studio access details, including the entry codes to both the studio and driveway gate. While we consistently update these codes, the Hiree agrees not to share these access codes with anyone else and take full responsibility for opening and closing the studio, ensuring the studio is fully locked when they leave.
5. Studio Responsibilities/ Liabilities
5.1 - Upon hiring The Studio, the Hiree accepts full responsibility and liability for any loss or damage to any studio equipment, including the general care of the studio and everything within it. Any losses/damage incurred will be charged at total replacement cost or repair work to the Hiree.
5.2 - The Studio holds no responsibility for any loss or damage to the Hirees' (or any of their associates') personal belongings or equipment while in the studio or surrounding areas.
5.3 - While we do hold Public Liability Insurance, The Studio holds no responsibility for any injuries acquired by the Hiree or any of their associates within the studio space and surrounding areas. The Hiree agrees to use practical and safe common sense when working within the studio space and surrounding areas and takes full responsibility for the safety of themselves and their associates.
5.4 - The Studio reserves the right to charge a $110 cleaning fee if the studio is left in an excessive mess. This would mean more than just a general tidy up and sweep. If the cleaning takes more than 2 hours then The Studio will adjust the cleaning fee to $110 per hour.
5.5 - If the Hiree holds up another booking from loading in on time for their booking they will be charged a penalty of $200. We are very firm with this so please keep an eye on the time.

6.1 - All cancellations and rebooking made prior to 48 hours before the scheduled start time will be gladly refunded or rebooked.
6.2 - No refunds will be made for cancellations or rebookings within 48 hours of the scheduled start time. The Hiree forfeits their total booking fee in this case.
OVERTIME Per Peerspace's policy, overtime will be billed in half-hour increments. The space must be vacated and all items brought into the space must be removed by the end time of your booking reservation. Overtime will be billed in half-hour increments at a rate of 1.5 times our stated hourly rate. CLEANING / DAMAGES Cleaning fee is included in the hourly rate, although guests are expected to leave the space in the same condition as they found it in. Guests must respect the space and we ask/appreciate that guests tidy up after themselves. Guest must remove any equipment or rentals you bring in, and you should factor this setup and teardown time in your booking hours. Please take great care of our space. No nails, screws, staples or penetrating items should be used on our walls. Any tape or gummed backing materials must be properly removed. Damages (walls, floors, furniture, etc) will be billed to the credit card on file with Peerspace.

There is no open flame or frying allowed on site or any cooking that will create a large amount of smoke as our facility is not ventilated.
