Dry hire tables, chairs and catering equipment for gala fundraising events.
Charity balls need reliable furniture, clean tableware and a supplier who delivers without drama. Expo Hire supplies chairs, banqueting tables, glassware, crockery and linen to fundraising galas, charity auctions and black-tie dinners across England and Wales.
We work directly with venue managers, event caterers, committee organisers and fundraising teams. Book online with live stock — no phone calls or waiting for a quote. Low minimum order levels apply and no security deposit. All crockery, cutlery and glassware is covered by our Send It Back Dirty service, so your team aren't washing up at midnight.
Round banqueting tables are the standard for seated charity dinners. Our 6ft round tables seat up to 10 guests comfortably with a centrepiece. Chiavari chairs in black, white or limewash, or our banqueting chairs, suit the formal atmosphere of most black-tie events. For pre-dinner drinks, add poseur tables and bar stools for the reception area.
Full place settings are available from a single order. Crockery, cutlery, glassware and linen all arrive together on the same delivery. Live stock levels show on every product page. For auctions and table prizes, our bar equipment supports drinks service throughout the evening.
For seated dinners, order one chair and one place setting per confirmed guest plus a 10% buffer for spares. For glassware, 15% above guest count covers breakages during service. If you're unsure, the team can advise on quantities once you confirm your guest list and table count.
