The loan can be used free of charge by all members of the TU administration after prior reservation. To do so, send an E-Mail as early as possible (two weeks in advance) and let us know when and where you need the KidsBox and for how long. This long advance notice is necessary because the transport of the KidsBox has to be organized.
Important: for organizational reasons, the delivery and removal cannot take place on a Wednesday.
The KidsBox location must be accessible without barriers, as the KidsBox is very heavy and can only be transported on wheels. The KidsBox can only be brought into buildings where TU employees work.
