12-pack of 6-hour deluxe chafing fuel tins. 3.6kg total — enough for extended buffet service across multiple dishes. No deposit, delivery from £40 ex-VAT.
Booking your deluxe chafing fuel - 6 hour burn time hire gives your catering team a dependable heat source for hot food service. Each 3.60kg pack contains twelve individual tins. These liquid fuel cells feature a wick ignition system that burns without odour. Your guests enjoy their meals without unpleasant fumes filling the dining area. The cool-to-touch exterior reduces accidental burn risks during busy service periods. Catering staff handle the tins with confidence while replacing empty units mid-event.
Professional event organisers and independent caterers rely on this extended burn duration for day-long conferences and wedding receptions. A steady flame keeps dishes at safe serving temperatures inside your catering equipment hire items. You avoid the spill hazards associated with traditional gel alternatives. The sealed liquid design prevents messy accidents during transport and setup. Expo Hire operates eleven regional depots to supply venues directly. Delivery starts from £40 ex-VAT, and the system calculates this cost by road distance from the nearest depot. You can also collect your order directly from our Birmingham warehouse between Monday and Friday.
Managing your event budget requires clear information. We display live pricing and stock levels directly on this site. You pay no security deposit when ordering this fuel alongside your table hire or other catering supplies. Every order includes a Free Minor Damage Waiver to cover accidental breakages on hired equipment. This waiver protects your budget when hiring fragile items like glassware and crockery. Our "Send It Back Dirty" service also covers your tableware, meaning your team skips the washing up after a long shift.
Our fully online booking system accepts orders around the clock without requiring a phone call. You secure your event supplies instantly. Add this twelve-pack to your basket and confirm your dates online.

Unless the two person carriage charge has been paid for, deliveries and collections are made by a single driver, who has 15 minutes to deliver or collect your order.
Our drivers are not allowed to take items up or down stairs or into lifts, and all deliveries need to be made within 50 metres of the vehicle. Any delays beyond the standard delivery time caused by access issues or items not being ready will be charged at £120 per hour or part thereof.
If a driver arrives and delivery or collection is impossible then unfortunately a wasted journey charge will apply. You will be sent a live tracking link so you can monitor your delivery in real time — our drivers do not make phone calls to notify of arrival times.
If access to collecting the hired equipment is denied, blocked, or impassable, a wasted collection journey will be automatically charged. Any parking tickets issued to vehicles whilst executing a delivery or collection will be charged for whilst we appeal.
