Gear Hire

Click here to see a map of the Club Shed

Note: You must be a member and show your dive certification and UWAUC membership sticker every time you hire gear out. Sign up today!

We maintain complete sets of scuba equipment which are hired out at awesome rates to our club members (see below). All the regs have dive computers and all the equipment is monitored and serviced regularly. We have everything you need to come diving with us.

Gear is available for pick up and return from our shed on Thursdays at a time organised with the volunteer. As the shed is run by volunteers they don't attend unless they know someone is coming. You must contact a shed volunteer to confirm you are coming at least 24 hours prior. Send the volunteer an email or give them a call to confirm you're coming so they know to open the shed. Check the roster list or our facebook group to see which roster volunteer will be there!

Please give the volunteers as many days’ notice as possible. Contact the day before collection at the LATEST.

Our club shed is located at Shed 3, UWA Watersports Centre, Hackett Drive, Crawley.

The current gear hire prices can be found here.

* The only payments currently accepted for gear hire are cash or online bank transfer.

Notes:
  • Make sure you check your gear and tank pressure before leaving the clubrooms.
  • UWAUC does not hire out other accessories, such as torches.
  • Wetsuits, weightbelts and bags are limited. Members are advised to have their own.
  • If you notice any problems with the gear you hired please let the people at the club rooms know so that we get it serviced. By doing that the next person using the gear next won't get the same problems.
  • All gear is to be washed properly before being returned for the next person using it. Unfortunately there isn't any washing facilities at the shed at the moment.
  • Gear not returned by the due date will incur fines at the daily hire rate
  • Refunds are not given if you did not use the gear.
  • Sadly, until UWA provides power at the current shed location we cannot run our compressor. So when you hire tanks from us they will be full and you need to fill them before returning them. There are a number of easily accessible places to fill tanks.
