NORTHWIND EVENTS

Generator Rental Logistics, Return & Refund Policy

1. Return & Off-Hire Timelines

Renters must return equipment or schedule its collection by the precise date and time locked into the rental

contract. To successfully complete a rental cycle, the following parameters apply:

• Off-Hire Notification: For units designated for pickup, the renter must formally log an "Off-Hire Request" via

phone or email. Rental fees accumulate continuously until this official confirmation timestamp is generated.

• Grace Period & Late Returns: A strict 1-hour grace period is extended beyond the contractual end time.

Units returned or marked off-hire late face a tiered penalty structure, moving rapidly into an unapproved

multi-day extension fee rate.

2. Drop-Off & Pickup Logistics

Northwind Events offers comprehensive distance-based logistics fulfillment to maintain operational integrity and

on-schedule event timelines.

• Distance-Based Transport: Delivery and extraction service pricing is computed strictly via round-trip

mileage mapped directly from the central Northwind Events depot to the specified drop site.

• Site Preparedness: The renter is legally responsible for clearing safe, solid ground access for transport

vehicles. If transport crews face on-site obstructions or structural delays exceeding 20 minutes, a mandatory

standby fee applies.

• Isolation Mandate: Prior to a scheduled pickup window, the renter must thoroughly isolate the generator

from all external electrical distribution blocks and structural building loads. Logistics teams will not dismantle

external distribution infrastructure.

3. Cancellation & Modification Windows

Scheduling modifications or complete cancellations of generator rentals and associated logistics demands

significant lead time to re-route capital hardware.

• 48-Hour Constraint: Any structural modification, site relocation, or complete event cancellation must be filed

at least 48 hours prior to the locked delivery/return window.

• Late Windows: Adjustments submitted inside the 48-hour boundary trigger a late modification penalty

totaling 50% of the calculated transport rate alongside standard cancellation penalties.

4. Refund & Cancellation Terms

Refund eligibility is heavily contingent upon the timing of the cancellation request relative to the scheduled

deployment schedule:

• Timely Cancellations (48+ Hours Notice): Cancellations submitted with more than 48 hours notice prior to

the delivery window qualify for a full refund of the rental fee, less a 10% administrative processing fee.

Logistics/transport fees are refunded in full.

• Late Cancellations (Within 48 Hours): Cancellations filed inside the 48-hour window forfeit the 100% rental

down payment. The distance-based transport fee will be fully refunded if the team has not departed the

depot.

• On-Site Refusal / Non-Compliance: If a delivery is aborted on-site due to inadequate space, structural

weight limitations, safety violations, or lack of site access, no refund will be issued for either the rental or the

transport fees.

• Technical Failures: In the highly improbable event of a mechanical or electrical failure of a Northwind

Events generator during operation, a pro-rated refund will be immediately calculated based on documented

downtime, provided the failure was not induced by operator negligence, fuel contamination, or structural

overloading.

5. Equipment Condition & Multi-Stage Inspection

Financial liability for physical damage remains fixed to the renter until the machinery is formally cleared by a

certified Northwind Events mechanic.

• Refueling Mandate: Machinery must return fully fueled with premium diesel matching the status at dispatch.

Fuel deficiencies incur a markup cost alongside a processing penalty.

• Two-Stage Technical Sign-Off: A preliminary check is performed on-site during hand-off. The binding,

comprehensive structural evaluation takes place at the Northwind Events depot within 48 hours of asset

retrieval.
