A refundable security deposit may be required depending on the equipment value, rental history, insurance coverage and risk assessment.

The remaining deposit is normally refunded within 7–15 business days after all equipment has been returned and inspected. Processing time may vary if damage or outstanding charges require review.
- Do you provide delivery and collection?
Yes. Delivery and collection can be arranged in advance. Charges depend on the location, order size, time and transportation requirements.

Yes, with prior written approval from Best PhotoCine. The customer is responsible for insurance, customs documents, permits, transportation and all travel-related risks.
