Check the price before you book

Quotes do not always show the same things. One video camera price list states that its prices include GST, so ask whether the figure you are given is inclusive or exclusive before you compare offers. Firms here price by the day, by the hour block or by the week, so ask for both the day rate and the weekly rate. Also ask what is included, such as batteries, memory cards, chargers, lenses and a bag.

Documents, delivery and cities

Some hire firms ask for a New Zealand driver licence or passport and take copies when you collect the gear, so bring one with you. Tell the seller your city: Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Hamilton or Tauranga. Some hire firms offer overnight delivery across New Zealand, so gear can reach you outside the main centres. Ask about the delivery fee for your city before you confirm.

Season and planning

New Zealand's seasons are the reverse of the northern hemisphere. Summer runs from December to February and winter from June to August. November is late spring, so for an outdoor shoot, a wedding or an event in the summer months, book in November or early December, ahead of the busiest weeks. For indoor or studio work in winter, the weather matters less and you can book closer to the date.

What to write in your request

Describe the job in your own words and include the details sellers ask about: the camera or lens you need, its make and model if you know it, what is included, the purpose (photos, video or streaming), the hire length in days, weeks or hours, and whether you want an operator. Add your city, whether you want pickup or delivery, and whether a deposit or collateral is needed. For a long-term hire, state the monthly budget.

Get offers through BlaBlaPrice. The request is free for you: the AI reads it, asks for any missing details and looks through local sellers' websites and price lists, then shows the prices it found. Sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice reply in the chat with their own offer, price and terms. Your contacts stay hidden, and you decide with whom to exchange them. Start from the home page, or read how it works before you send your first request.
