Follow this proven process used by hundreds of event organizers, corporate teams, and venue managers across Europe.
Determine your equipment needs
Start by identifying your event type and requirements. Are you organizing a corporate fitness challenge, a HYROX competition, a charity run, or setting up a temporary office gym? Count your expected participants and measure your available space. Make a list of the specific equipment you need—treadmills, bikes, rowing machines, HYROX gear, or functional fitness equipment.
Request a quote
Contact rental.fitness through our quote form, email, or phone. Provide your event date, location, rental duration, and equipment list. Our team will respond within 24 hours with a detailed quote covering equipment rental, delivery, professional setup, and optional on-site support. No hidden fees—everything is transparent.
Confirm booking and logistics
Review your customized quote and confirm your equipment selection. We'll finalize delivery dates and collection times. Share your venue details including access times, floor plans, power outlet locations, and any setup preferences. For HYROX events, we'll discuss lane configurations and running loop layouts.
Prepare your venue
Get your venue ready for equipment delivery. Ensure adequate space (follow our recommended dimensions), accessible power outlets, and clear vehicle access for our delivery trucks. Remove obstacles from the installation area. If you're installing heavy equipment or turf, consider floor protection. We can advise on specific requirements.
Delivery and professional setup
Our professional team arrives at the agreed time with all equipment. We handle everything: unloading, positioning according to your floor plan, assembly, testing, and calibration. For HYROX setups, we ensure proper friction on turf lanes and calibrate all Concept2 machines. We'll provide a brief training session for your staff and answer any questions.
Run your event
Your equipment is ready to use. All machines are tested, calibrated, and professionally installed. Focus on running a great event while the equipment performs flawlessly. Need help during the event? We offer optional on-site technical support to handle any issues and keep everything running smoothly.
Collection and handover
When your rental period ends, we return to collect everything. Our team disassembles, packs, and removes all equipment. We conduct a final check to ensure nothing is damaged or missing. Your venue is left clean and returned to its original state. Simple, professional, hassle-free.
Frequently Asked Questions about Renting Fitness Equipment
Common questions from event organizers and corporate clients
How much does it cost to rent fitness equipment for an event?
Rental costs depend on equipment type, quantity, rental duration, and delivery location. As a rough guide: treadmills start around €150/week, bikes from €75/week, and complete HYROX 8-lane packages from €4,500/event. Contact us for a detailed quote tailored to your needs—we respond within 24 hours.
What types of fitness equipment can we rent?
We offer professional cardio machines (treadmills, bikes, ellipticals, rowing machines), HYROX competition gear (RowErgs, SkiErgs, sleds, turf, wall balls), functional fitness equipment (kettlebells, sandbags, portable rigs), and accessories. All equipment is commercial-grade from brands like Technogym, Concept2, and DFX.
Is delivery and installation included?
Yes, delivery and professional installation are included in all our rental packages across Europe. Our experienced team delivers, sets up, tests, and calibrates all equipment. We also provide collection and removal at the end of your rental period. Everything is handled—you just focus on your event.
What is the minimum rental period?
For events, our minimum rental is typically 1 day. For corporate gyms, hotels, or long-term installations, the minimum is usually 1 month. We offer flexible terms and can accommodate weekend-only rentals, week-long events, or multi-month contracts. Talk to us about your specific timeline.
Do you provide on-site service during events?
Yes, we offer optional on-site technical support for larger events or competitions. Our technician stays on location to handle equipment issues, make adjustments, and ensure smooth operations. This is especially popular for HYROX events, corporate challenges, and multi-day competitions.
Can we rent equipment for outdoor events?
Absolutely. We provide fitness equipment for outdoor events like charity runs, sports festivals, and corporate team-building days. We recommend weather protection (tents or covers) for electronic equipment and can advise on suitable equipment for outdoor use. Floor protection may also be needed depending on terrain.
How long does setup and breakdown take?
Setup time depends on equipment quantity and complexity. A small corporate gym (10-15 machines) takes 2-4 hours. A complete HYROX 8-lane setup takes 6-10 hours. We coordinate timing with your venue schedule and work efficiently to meet your deadlines. Breakdown is typically faster—around 50-70% of setup time.
What kind of insurance or liability coverage is included?
All our rental equipment is fully insured. We carry comprehensive liability insurance covering equipment failure and damage. For high-value events or special requirements, we can discuss additional coverage options. Normal wear and tear is expected and covered—you're only responsible for negligence or misuse.
