Delivery areas for linen hire

\\\

Expo Hire delivers linen across England and Wales. Enter your postcode at checkout for instant delivery pricing. Sunday delivery is included at no extra charge. Linen is delivered pressed and ready to lay.

\\\

Linen colours and finishes

\\\

White and ivory are the two most common choices. White suits contemporary and minimalist events. Ivory suits traditional and rustic events, barn weddings, and Chiavari chair setups where warmth in the palette works better than stark white. Coloured linen in navy, burgundy, black, and other shades is available for themed events and corporate colour scheme matching.

\\\

What size tablecloth do I need?

\\\

The size depends on the table diameter and how much drop you want. For a 5ft (150cm) round table:

\\\
  • Standard drop (30cm): 208cm round cloth
  • Floor length (75cm): 300cm round cloth
\\\

For a 6ft trestle table with a floor-length cloth front and standard drop at the sides, order a 183 x 274cm rectangular cloth. Full size guidance with drop calculations is in the Linen Hire Guide.

\\\

How do I return the linen?

\\\

Fold linen roughly and pack it in the delivery bags. Return it dirty — Expo Hire launders everything professionally. No pre-washing or ironing required before return.

\\\

Tablecloth size guide

\\\

Match the cloth to the table and the style of event. A 5ft round banqueting table often takes a full-drop round cloth for weddings and gala dinners. A 6ft trestle table needs a rectangular cloth sized for the length and the drop you want at the front. Poseur tables need stretch or fitted covers so guests do not catch loose fabric when they stand around the bar.

\\\

If you already have the table size but not the cloth size, start with the table diameter or length, then choose the drop. Formal dining needs a longer drop than a trade stand or buffet. You can pair linen hire with table hire in one order, which removes the guesswork when you need both.

\\\

Napkins and linen accessories

\\\

Napkins are available in cotton and polycotton in white and ivory. Allow one per guest for a seated meal, or one and a half per guest if guests return for seconds at a buffet. Napkins are delivered pressed in bundles and returned dirty — Expo Hire launders everything as part of the hire cost.

\\\

Chair covers, table runners, and fitted poseur table covers are available from the same linen hire range. Add them to the same order as your tablecloths to keep delivery to one charge. For sizing, colour choices, and drop calculations, the Linen Hire Guide covers every combination.
