About this example

This example is the invoice a plant hire company in Houston, Texas, sends a main contractor at the end of the month: a 19-foot scissor lift for three weeks, a 60-foot boom lift for two and a compact track loader for one, all delivered to and collected from a medical office building site.

Contractors check a hire invoice against the delivery tickets, so this one gives each machine its fleet number, the dates it went out and came back, and the weekly rate charged. The damage waiver is shown as 12% of the hire, and delivery, fuel used, a cleaning charge and the environmental fee each have their own line, with the reason beside them. Texas sales tax applies to the hire and the charges alike. A second table repeats each machine's dates with its hour-meter readings and fuel level on return, and the invoice closes with bank details and hire terms on shifts, fuel, the damage waiver and late payment.

Who it is for

Plant, tool and party hire companies that bill contractors and other customers for hire periods, delivery and extra charges.
