Why do I need to arrange the Placement through Sweepsouth?

The Placement fee accounts for the booking revenue and availability we lose when a SweepStar moves into permanent private work.

It also allows us to correctly release your chosen SweepStar from their platform commitments for the agreed working days.

Please contact Sweepsouth before arranging any private work with a SweepStar.
