Frequently asked questions about technical operators
What is the rental period for technical operators?
The minimum rental period is one day. Half-day and hourly options are available on selected items by request. Multi-day discounts apply on 3+ day bookings.
Do you deliver technical operators outside Colombo?
Yes. Same-day delivery is available in Colombo and suburbs; next-day or scheduled delivery is available island-wide including Kandy, Galle, Matara, Jaffna, Negombo and Anuradhapura. Delivery charges depend on distance, item size and quantity.
Is a security deposit required to rent technical operators?
Yes — a refundable security deposit is required for all rental items and is refunded after the item is returned in working condition. A valid NIC or passport is required at handover.
How are operator rates structured?
3 tiers per operator: half-day (≤5 hours), day (≤10 hours) and full-day (≤18 hours). Beyond 18 hours is treated as multi-day at the full-day rate per 18h block. Overtime kicks in at 1.5× per hour.
What experience level should I book?
Junior operators (2-4 years) are ideal for small events and self-coordinated venues. Senior operators (5+ years) bring corporate-event-grade reliability and are recommended for live broadcast, mission-critical conferences and high-stakes shoots.
