Fife Sling Library & Meet - Information
Carrier Hire during COVID
Although I’ve had to cancel library sessions for now, I know that some people still need to hire slings and carriers so I’m aiming to provide an alternative postal hire service meantime!
The total cost per hire is made up of the following:
- Discounted 6 week hire period - £20 per sling/carrier
- Refundable deposit - £50 per sling/carrier
- Post and packing charge (depends on speed of service - ask at time of booking)
** I'm now offering in-person, physically-distanced collection from my home in Cardenden, if you're fairly local and wish to avoid the postage charge - just let me know at time of booking and we'll arrange a date and time **
How to hire
1. Choose your sling/carrier
Have a look at the online catalogue then contact SlingSure (via website, email, FB page or phone) to discuss which carrier you'd like to hire and agree dates/postage or collection details
2. Complete hire form and payment
You'll then receive an email with an electronic form to complete online and payment details for bank transfer or Paypal. Once you've submitted the form and paid in full, your carrier hire is confirmed!
3. Watch out for the postie (or collect in person)!
Your hired carrier will be posted out on the next posting day (current weekly posting day is a Friday) after which you will receive a second email confirming your payment receipt and tracking details for your hired carrier. If you've chosen to collect in person, I'll see you at our arranged time where we can complete a physically distanced pick-up.
4. Check your emails
Near the end of your hire, you will receive a reminder email advising you that the carrier is due back soon. You can arrange return or, in many cases, extend your hire - just get in touch to ask!

POSTAL CARRIER HIRE
-Low-contact, low-risk
-Slings/carriers to your door
-Extended hire period and extensions available
-Free 15 min online/phone support with your hire if required
-Longer online consultations available by appointment, if you need more help with your hired or your own carrier
Keeping safe
By combining trips to the post office with my own trips out for shopping essentials, I’m aiming to limit trips out and about, even as restrictions have been eased a bit. I’m also offering a specially discounted 6 week hire period for only £20 for the time being, so that you don’t need to arrange the return so soon and you have a bit more time with the carrier, despite it being in the post for some of the hire period.
Payment
In addition to the £20 hire charge and £50 refundable deposit, there will be an additional charge for postage. This will depend on the package size and speed of delivery - please ask at booking for a quote. The postage cost to send it out will be payable at time of booking, and you will be responsible for covering postage back to me by the date the carrier is due back. If you are fairly local to me and you are able to drop it at my house whilst making a trip for any other essential reasons, we can arrange that near the end of your hire period.
I can be reached through the 'Contact' page of this website, on email (emma@slingsure.co.uk), by telephone on 07773 158233 or by message through the Facebook page.
Stay in touch and keep safe meantime,
