HOW DOES HIRING WORK?

Receiving your Parcel

  • Reserve now, pay later! For hire customers, we only expect the hire to be paid now and the refundable security deposit paid 45 days prior to your event. This means your checkout today will only include the hire, and a second invoice will be issued for the security deposit closer to the event date. Simply put, hire customers will be billed twice: first for the hire and later for the refundable security deposit.
  • Orders over $100 require a $99 refundable security deposit
  • Orders under $100 require a $59 refundable security deposit
  • Select Hire Date (This will automatically give you more than just a two day hire)
  • Quantity selector is also on the calendar***
  • We hire for 7 days from your event date to give you time to return as we know what its like after weddings or events
  • For interstate hires- we ship 2.5 weeks before your event so you receive the items well in advance. After your event you have 7 days to send us through the tracking number.
  • The 100% refundable deposit is refunded to you within 72 hours of our warehouse receiving the package.

Reasons why you might not get all of your bond back: 

We don't want to keep anyones bond, however for any damaged items we can't re-hire we will need to keep part of the bond to replace the item for the next event/bride or planner. For each item (i.e each napkin) you pay a bond, so say one napkin is damaged then we would only keep 1 x $2.50 for example (rustic cotton napkin). We will be in touch with you if we have to keep some of the bond, otherwise it will be refunded to you within 72 hours of receiving your parcel.

Heres some reasons why we might keep part of your bond:

  • Stained napkins, table runners tablecloths, placemats that we can't re-hire. This includes oil stains (lipstick and grease from food) and wax stains.
  • Stained or ruined placemats that we can't re-hire
  • Cutlery that is lost or damaged
  • Items that aren't cleaned will incur a $39.99 cleaning fee to send everything to the dry cleaner
  • Items that aren't sorted as per the instructions above will incur a $34.99 sorting fee

**If items come back from the dry cleaner still damaged with stains we unfortunately still can't re-use them and so we will have to take some of the bond to replace the item. We do recommend you try to wash them yourself first.

  • If you items arrive to us more than two weeks after your event there will be a $9.99 late fee incurred
  • CANDLE WAX: Candle wax doesn't come out and so this is a damaged table runner if returned with wax on it.

Refundable Deposit Policy

The deposit is refunded upon return of the items. Each item has an individual refundable deposit. If an item is damaged, the individual deposit for that item will be retained to cover the cost of replacing the item for the next bride. For example, a rustic cotton napkin item has a refundable deposit of $2.50. If the napkin is returned damaged and requires replacement, the $2.50 deposit will be retained by Organic Events in order to replace the damaged napkin for the next event. All other undamaged napkin deposits will be refunded. Replacement cost can be calculated by the difference between the hire cost the purchase cost.

Damage fees below:

$2.50 per 100% cotton napkin lost or damaged (*100% Linen napkin is $9)

$12 per table runner lost or damaged (*100% Linen runner is $27)

$4.90 per cutlery piece lost or damaged

$3.50 per placemat lost or damaged
