Expo Hire supplies commercial catering equipment to event caterers, hotels, conference centres, and institutional kitchens across the North East of England. Order online with live stock and clear pricing — we deliver on time and collect after the event.
Our cooking equipment covers commercial ovens, hobs, and specialist units for high-volume production. Whether you're running a three-course banquet or a continuous buffet service, having the right cooking capacity keeps the kitchen on schedule.
Our commercial fridges and freezers range from under-counter units to full-size cabinets for large-scale catering. For service, our warming equipment — bain-maries, heated trolleys, and electric chafing dishes — holds food at safe temperatures through extended service periods.
We supply complete place settings including crockery, cutlery, glassware, and tablecloths. All covered by our Send It Back Dirty service — return unwashed and we handle cleaning. For events with a bar, we stock bar equipment, bar counters, and bar stools.
We deliver throughout the North East, covering Northumberland, County Durham, and Tyne and Wear. Equipment arrives clean and tested. After the event, pack items back into their cases and we collect. Delivery starts from £40 ex-VAT, calculated by road distance from our nearest depot.
Every order includes a Free Minor Damage Waiver at no extra charge. Other hire companies charge 2–3% of your order total for the same cover — on a typical £1,000 booking, that is up to £30 extra you keep in your pocket.
Six things no other hire company in the UK offers. We deliver and collect seven days a week — no other hire company does. We are the only hire company to offer live order tracking for both delivery and collection; track your driver in real time by order number and postcode. We check live stock and logistics availability before your order is confirmed, so every order is 100% guaranteed to arrive exactly as placed — no substitutions, no shortfalls. You choose morning or afternoon for both delivery and collection. We never charge a security or damage deposit. Every hire includes a Free Minor Damage Waiver at no extra charge — other companies charge 2–3% of your order total for the same cover. And with the widest product range in the event hire industry, most customers can source their entire event from a single supplier.
