How applications are assessed
SGL Hire may use credit-reference information, trade references, existing account history and the expected equipment exposure. Existing supply accounts are reviewed for hire rather than transferred automatically, and hire and supply credit limits may be managed separately.
| Target review time | 1–3 working days after a complete application |
|---|---|
| Standard payment terms | 30 days from invoice for approved accounts |
| Minimum spend | No fixed published minimum |
| Credit limit | Set individually and reviewed against trading history and current exposure |
| Deposit | Approved account customers normally do not pay a deposit |
Your information
Application information is used to assess credit, manage the account, prevent fraud, fulfil hire contracts and recover sums due. Do not send sensitive personal information through an unsecured general contact form. Use the supplied application form and the submission route confirmed by the accounts team.
Submitting an application does not reserve equipment or guarantee credit. SGL Hire may offer prepayment or deposit terms instead of an account.
