Dry Hire Clause Samples

A Dry Hire clause defines an arrangement where equipment or property is rented out without any accompanying personnel, such as operators or support staff. In practice, the lessee is responsible for operating, maintaining, and insuring the equipment during the hire period, and any necessary consumables or additional services must be arranged separately. This clause clarifies the division of responsibilities, ensuring that both parties understand that only the equipment is provided, which helps prevent disputes over staffing, maintenance, and liability during the rental term.
