Medway Event Hire: Tables, Chairs, Catering Equipment for Professional Organisers

Seating dictates the visual impact of your room. Expo Hire stocks thousands of commercial-grade seats for banquets, conferences, and weddings. Our EventPro® range features furniture that withstands the heavy use of commercial events. You will find elegant Chiavari chairs that suit formal dining spaces and historic venues like the Guildhall in Rochester. Black frames project a sharp, formal aesthetic for corporate dinners. White frames suit summer marquees and garden parties. Limewash finishes bring a rustic warmth to barn settings and rural venues. We supply these chairs with a choice of seat pad colours, allowing you to match your corporate branding or wedding theme.

Modern event designs often call for distinct silhouettes. The Wishbone chair introduces a sculptural element to your dining layout. Planners favour the Cross Back chair in oak for vineyard settings and venues with exposed brickwork. We also stock standard banqueting seats and folding options for large-scale conferences at venues like the Chatham Maritime Museum. Every order includes our Free Minor Damage Waiver, covering accidental scratches or scuffs during your hire period. Other hire companies charge 2–3% of your order total for the same cover — on a typical £1,000 booking, that is up to £30 extra you keep in your pocket. No other UK hire company supplies this level of standard cover. You can book hundreds of chairs for a major exhibition or a few dozen for an intimate private dinner. Our inventory scales to meet your exact requirements.

Casual networking zones require different furniture configurations. You can set up informal breakout spaces using our bar stools and poseur tables. These tall units encourage guests to mingle and move freely around the room. Festival operators and gallery managers frequently book these items to maximise floor space. They work exceptionally well in corporate hospitality suites and exhibition stands. We supply poseur tables with various top finishes, including glass, wood, and spandex covers. You can pair these with our metal or padded bar stools to create comfortable seating areas near your bar or buffet stations.

Table dimensions dictate your floor plan and guest interaction. Our 6ft circular banqueting tables seat 8 to 10 people, creating a classic layout for gala dinners. Formal conferences and exhibition displays often require straight lines. The 180cm rectangular banqueting tables give you a practical surface for panel discussions or buffet stations. We also stock smaller cafe tables and bistro units for intimate seating areas. You can secure all your table hire needs through our website with a 25% advance deposit on orders over £1,000. This deposit option helps corporate event teams and charities manage their budgets for large-scale bookings. We construct our banqueting tables with folding metal legs and wooden tops, making them easy for your team to move and position on site.

Food service demands professional-grade hardware. Expo Hire supplies medway event hire: tables, chairs, catering equipment to independent caterers and hospitality managers. You need dependable appliances to prepare, store, and serve large volumes of food. We stock heavy-duty cooking equipment that handles the demands of commercial kitchens. Our inventory includes six-burner ovens, commercial microwaves, and deep fat fryers. We test every electrical and gas appliance before it leaves our Birmingham depot. You receive equipment that is ready to plug in and use immediately.

Temperature control dictates food safety. Our hot cupboards keep plated meals warm during long service windows. Summer festivals and outdoor corporate days often utilise our BBQ equipment. We supply large gas barbecues capable of cooking hundreds of burgers and sausages per hour. You can store raw ingredients and chilled beverages in our commercial fridge hire units. We stock upright fridges, chest freezers, and glass-door display chillers. We also supply warming equipment and beverage equipment like hot water urns and coffee percolators. Caterers rely on our serving equipment, including chafing dishes, to present buffet items. Delivery starts from £40 ex-VAT, calculated by road distance from our nearest depot.

Tableware completes your dining presentation. We stock thousands of pieces of crockery, from standard white plates to contemporary stoneware. You can match these with our polished cutlery sets. We supply everything from starter forks and soup spoons to steak knives and dessert spoons. Event organisers love our "Send It Back Dirty" service. You return all plates, bowls, and forks unwashed. We handle the cleaning at our depot, saving your team hours of manual labour on site. This service proves invaluable for events at dry hire venues without commercial dishwashing facilities. You scrape the plates clear of food debris and pack them back into their delivery crates.

Drink service requires specific vessels for different beverages. Our glassware inventory covers everything from standard tumblers to specialist tasting glasses. You can book wine glasses for formal dinners and champagne flutes for toasts. Pubs and festival bars frequently order our beer glasses in bulk quantities. We stock pint and half-pint glasses in various styles, including nonic, tulip, and conical shapes. We also supply bar accessories to equip your temporary serving stations. You can hire ice buckets, cocktail shakers, and spirit measures. The "Send It Back Dirty" policy applies to all glassware, meaning your bar staff can pack away glasses straight from the tables without running them through a glasswasher.

Fabric finishes tie your room design together. Our tablecloths fit all our standard table sizes. You can select crisp white cloths for traditional weddings or dark tones for corporate galas. We stock round, square, and rectangular cloths in multiple dimensions. We stock matching napkins to complete your place settings. Planners often use our chair covers to unify mismatched venue seating. These covers slip over standard banqueting chairs, hiding worn upholstery and creating a uniform look across your dining room. You can browse our full linen hire inventory online and check exact stock availability for your dates. We launder and press all linen before dispatch, delivering it ready for immediate use on your tables.
