We do require crew (not included in the rental price) when renting some of our more specialist equipment such as drones or super slow motion cameras.

We also have talented, creative crew available for productions. If you need anything specific please get in touch. We are sure to be able to help!

We strongly believe in what we call PRIME SUPPORT. Whenever you rent equipment at FILMBASE we ensure everything is in a working condition. Should something happen on your production and you need a quick replacement and/or additional gear, feel free to call us for a quick and easy solution.

If you have a project coming up in the future which you already know the date for, make sure to let us now to reserve your dream kit early in advance. As availability is limited it’s always a good idea to let us know as soon as you know something - even if the date is not fixed yet.

You can cancel your rental two working days prior to your rental period to receive a full refund or avoid being charged for the rental.

A cancellation within 48 hours prior to the rental period is being charged at 50%.
No-show or a cancellation on the pickup day is being charged at 100%.
Cancellations during the rental period are unfortunately not possible and are being charged at 100%.

Currently we only offer payment via bank transfer. All payments by non-regular customers need to be done in advance.

We are planning to accept debit/credit card payments on-site at the rental house facilities in the near future. Please check back later for updates.

All items available for rent at FILMBASE are insured in Europe by our equipment insurance.

All items are inspected before departure and upon return. If equipment is used in harsh conditions, or returns in a state requiring additional care then a cleaning fee may be applied.

If equipment requires repair or replacement, an estimate will be furnished to repair or replace the item(s).

A flat rate safety deposit of €750,00, which is the insurance deductible, will be charged in advance together with the equipment rental and will be refunded after the end of the rental period. Please keep in mind that any insurance costs, damages, repairs and cleaning fees will be deducted from the security deposit.
