Frequently Asked Questions

• Why is the brand changing to Wex Rental?  
  Calumet Photographic and Wex Photographic have now merged to offer an improved experience and wider range of products to photographers and filmmakers across the UK. The improved Wex rental facility offers more products and services, making it easier to hire the right equipment for your shoot.

• As an existing Calumet customer, will there be any changes to my account?
  No, all current account credentials will remain the same.

• Why are you moving to a new location in London?
  Our current site in Drummond Street is subject to a Compulsory Purchase Order as part of the HS2 development and we have to vacate the site by the end of November. We have taken the decision to relocate the rental operation to Kennington Lane where there is additional storage space and parking available, while maintaining a pick-up and drop-off service from our new Whitechapel Showroom.

  Wex Rental will be located on 250 Kennington Lane, Unit C (SE11 5RD) in central London, a short walk from Vauxhall and Oval stations. As a Wex Rental customer, you are welcome to use one of the 7 free parking spaces during your visit.
