Well any loan we have is free to be taken back by the owner, so we don’t have a separate agreement for that. What we do like to have is a reasonable amount of forewarning so we can get it out and
get the exit forms prepared and condition reports reviewed, as well as an expectation that the owner will turn up during opening hours to collect. We do have a section in the forms clearing pointing out that we will say “No” if the owner turns up at ten to
five with no warning.
I’ve attached our standard loan agreement, the “Temporary Removal” section is what you need to look at.

Hello everyone,
I am emailing round to see if anyone can help with loan agreements for used objects. That is, objects that will be on the museum grounds for people to see but are living objects and will be occasionally taken away and used by their owners.
I am specifically thinking about boats, cars etc. I am gathering examples to think about how to structure a loan agreement like this where the objects won’t always be in our control. If anyone has any experience, or a blank agreement that you don’t mind sharing
please do get in touch.
You can email me off-list at
