Find out how we can help you with event hire for any type of outdoor occasion or function.
Our outdoor hire range covers a wide range of products to make your next outdoor event go off without a hitch. Whether it’s furniture, catering equipment or products to shield you from the elements we’ve got something that can help you.
Whether it’s for a pop up street food stall or to store equipment at an outdoor event, our gazebos for hire can do the job for you. Particularly useful in the summer months, gazebos are an attractive solution for fetes and fayres alike.
We offer gazebos in two sizes, offering flexibility depending on the footprint available for use. All gazebos are shipped with three sidewalls and weights, so there is no need to worry about sourcing additional components.
Unlike regular gazebos used in garden parties, our gazebos are made for commercial usage, with a more durable covering and sturdy poles. They’re also incredibly easy to erect – simply telescope the frame apart until it reaches full size, extend the legs and then put the cover on top.
Keeping outdoor spaces warm can be a challenge in the Great British climate. Our patio heaters for hire are a great solution to ensuring that your guests can sit in comfort outdoors whether it’s a lazy summer evening, a brisk autumnal day or a fresh spring afternoon.
We have two kinds of outdoor heater hire available; gas and electric. Electric patio heaters are great for focused heat on specific enclosed areas where there is a good power connection, while gas patio heaters are better for open areas which require heat to be radiated throughout the space.
We’ve sourced the best LPG patio heaters for hire to ensure that they are easy to start, reliable and fuel efficient. We also supply 13kg LPG bottles so that you don’t need to worry about getting hold of fuel.
For those with huge spaces to heat, our space heaters for hire are perfect. These are a more industrial version of a patio heater, and are capable of heating large spaces for long periods of time.
We love outdoor events, especially during the summer months. There isn’t much better than people having fun and celebrating outdoors in the sunshine, and with this in mind we’ve put together a range of outdoor furniture hire to help make events a success.
For those looking to sit in large groups at outdoor events there are various options to match the space and aesthetic of an occasion. For events where people drink and eat together, our folding beer bench and table sets are difficult to beat. They offer space not only for drinks but food as well, with up to six people able to be seated on each set. Our aluminium tables and chairs offer an option if space is more at a premium.
For those looking for comfort, then one of our more cushioned options would work better. Both bean bags and deckchairs are great for informal events where lots of people are sat watching a performance, while cosier and more intimate events are better served by our rattan furniture sets.
If the sun gets too much then a parasol is a must. We have commercial sized parasols in stock which offer lots of shade and can be set up quickly. These come with weighted bases as standard.
The most important thing a customer needs to know is their power requirements. Outdoor cooking equipment often needs a great deal of power, and while electric ovens and cookers do a good job inside, they're not designed to work on either generators or extension leads. We recommend using LPG powered equipment when cooking outside, as LPG offers much more power and is designed to be used outdoors.
However, we do have some outdoor catering hire products that are electrical like our hot dog steamer and popcorn cart. We recommend checking what power output you have available before hiring as it's possible these can trip a supply that isn't set up to handle it.
There’s no need to worry about a damage deposit when placing an event hire order with Expo Hire. Instead, we run a free minor damage waiver scheme to cover minor damage or loss, so you don’t need to worry if you break the odd glass or plate. We do charge for excessive or negligent loss or damage at 10x the hire price. Please check our terms and conditions for full details.
