REFUND POLICY:
Under no circumstances will ShortAndSweetHire offer refunds/ store credits on garments after checkout.

At ShortAndSweetHire we take pride in all of our designer garments and endeavour to treat them with the best possible care. Every garment is carefully hand-washed and cleaned with care (or dry cleaned depending on labels) to aim to obtain their quality and ensure the garments are cleaned to our best possible standard.
 
Please do not attempt to clean/wash or iron the garment yourself. This could result in major damages to specific materials and can possibly destroy our garments. Please simply return your item as is and ShortAndSweetHire will handle all cleaning for you.
 
Our hire garments are expected to be rented in the best possible condition. Although some items are worn very frequently and small general wear and tear can occur. At S&SH we strive to ensure the hire garments are as close to perfect as possible, although as to be expected they aren’t always in 100% perfect brand new condition. All garments which we believe are not up to standard are removed from the collection immediately and no longer available to rent. If you are unhappy with the standard an item has been rented to you in, please contact us immediately. Any noticeable damage noticed on garments must be photographed with a time stamp and send to a S&SH as soon as the item is received.
 
If items are not returned in a hireable condition, or damages/late fees are not paid within 7 days of being requested by S&SH, the matter will be taken up with a debt collecting agency and you will be liable for all charges and fees obtained.
 
ShortAndSweetHire reserves the right to terminate your right to rent garments from us at any time at our own discretion should you breach this agreement or for any other reason.
