Expo Hire supplies commercial beer glass hire for professional event organisers. Every order includes our Send It Back Dirty washing service.
Event organisers, caterers, and venue managers require commercial glassware for temporary bars and hospitality setups. Guests expect clean, polished glasses for their drinks. Expo Hire supplies beer glass hire to meet these requirements. You order everything online without making a single phone call. Stock levels and prices update in real time on our website, giving you immediate clarity for your event budget. We supply professional equipment to the hire trade, avoiding domestic retail products.
Nonic pint glasses hold 568ml, the standard measure for beer and cider in the UK. Their distinctive bulge below the rim helps them stack together and reduces breakages during busy service periods. Half-pint glasses hold 284ml, matching smaller pours or tasting flights. Stemmed craft beer glasses hold 330ml or 400ml, matching specialist ales, lagers, and ciders. Their stemmed design helps maintain drink temperature. Many of these items feature CE or UKCA markings. This certification confirms the glasses hold the specified volume, a legal requirement for serving alcohol in licensed premises.
We wash, polish, and pack all glassware in reusable transit crates before dispatch. You unpack them directly onto your bar or service area. Each crate protects the glasses during transport and helps with organised storage on site. We include our "Send It Back Dirty" service with every order. Your team empties the used glasses back into their crates, and we handle the washing at our Birmingham depot. Every order also includes a Free Minor Damage Waiver, covering small chips and breakages. We do not charge a security deposit, keeping your initial outlay low.
Expo Hire operates 11 regional depots, supplying events for clients including the BBC, ITV, and Cambridge University. We deliver direct to your event site, with delivery starting from £40 ex-VAT. On delivery day, you track your driver using our live vehicle tracking system, which sends an SMS ETA. Food service areas alongside your bar require additional equipment. We stock crockery hire and catering equipment hire to complete your hospitality setup. Plan beer glass hire quantities by considering guest numbers and individual drink consumption. A typical calculation suggests two to three glasses per person. Select your hire dates on the product pages to check availability and confirm your booking online.
Expo Hire does not charge a security deposit. A free minor damage waiver covers minor damage and loss. Excessive or negligent damage is charged at 10 times the hire price. Full details in our terms and conditions.
