AV Loan Service
Equipment is lent from the AV Loan Service to Helsinki residents under the age of 29, youth groups, youth organizations operating in Helsinki, city departments, and other Helsinki-based organizations. Lighting and sound equipment can be borrowed free of charge through the service.
Borrowing is arranged by contacting the service via email at avlainaamo@hel.fi. Reservations are always made by email. Additional information and inquiries are also handled via email. Reservations must be made at least one week before the start of the loan period.
The equipment storage is located in Suvilahti at Tiivistämö, at Kaasutehtaankatu 1 (see map). Equipment can be picked up and returned by car at the Tiivistämö storage facility, which is located in building 4 in Suvilahti. Once the reservation is confirmed, we will send a map indicating the pickup and return location.
Equipment can only be picked up and returned at agreed times. Unfortunately, the AV Loan Service is not able to provide training in the use of the equipment, so the borrower must already know how to operate it.
NOTE: Some of the equipment is heavy. Please be prepared to transport the equipment to your vehicle yourself.
When collecting the equipment, the borrower must present a valid ID. A loan agreement for the borrowed items is signed upon pickup. The equipment must be collected and returned at the agreed times.
By signing the agreement, the borrower commits to compensating for any damage to the equipment that is not due to normal wear and tear. In the event of loss, the equipment must be reimbursed in full. When returned, the equipment must be in a condition that allows it to be immediately loaned to the next user.
Any damage to the equipment or any faults noticed must be reported to a representative of the Loan Service immediately, or at the latest when returning the equipment.
