If you’re considering silent disco headset hire, it probably means that you’ve been to a simply awesome headphone party or you’ve been inspired by our brilliant disco headphone explainer; we’re Place Over Ears and we specialise in silent headphone party rental and here’s our guide to wireless headphone rental for your dancefloor.

Why Should I and What Should Be?

Why not purchase your own silent disco headphones? One great reason is that headphone party rental is far cheaper and more convenient if you only need the headphones for an infrequent occasion, such as a wedding reception, a corporate end-of-year party or a birthday bash.

A silent disco headset hire package (without a DJ) usually comprises of 3 parts;

  1. Specially designed silent disco headphones (usually rented in packs of 25, 50, 100 headsets etc.) which can receive multiple channels of DJ audio at the same time
  2. Headphone transmitters (one required for each channel of audio you wish to send to the headsets, usually a maximum of 3)
  3. Audio accessories, such as connectors, cables, instructions and headphone recharging units

If you hire your headphone party from a great hire company (like us), you can be assured that you and your guests will experience excellent audio quality and your headsets will arrive fresh and clean, and fully working. A great headphone supplier will offer everything ‘out of the box’. This is really important if you’re planning a smaller party or a larger club night, in your silent party rental box you should find audio connectors for DJ mixing desks (RCA phono leads) or 3.5mm headphone output adaptors for smartphones, tablets and laptops.

Some silent disco headphone rental packages include headsets that are rechargeable, so again a good rental service will supply a healthy number of recharging units in your package.

Keeping it Clean on the Dancefloor

Lost, Theft or Total Damage

The vast majority of our audio hires run without a glitch. In the very rare case of either loss, theft, or total damage of rented headsets, we’ll calculate a final charge to replace the headphones, which will be;

  • A reasonable market value of the kit, based on it’s age since we purchased it
  • Plus, a one-off administration charge of £20.00 to re-order a replacement product(s)

With this in mind, if you’re working or travelling with our hire headphones, it’s well worth arranging suitable event or personal insurance for any potential loss or theft.

Other Charges

  • Hard carry cases – £22.00
  • Soft carry pouches – £18.00
  • Leads – £10.00
  • Adaptors – £10.00
  • Instruction manuals – £10.00

Equipment Soiling

Light soiling will be cleaned free of charge and is part of our hygiene standards.

However, if the headphones are excessively stained (food, liquids, etc.) and its performance has not been affected, as a minimum we will charge a standard £20.00 cleaning charge.

If the item has been damaged by excessive soiling and or wear and tear (beyond what could be considered reasonable), the item may be identified as irreparably damaged and please see our section on Loss, Theft and Total Damage.
