Some of the products we can deliver to you include:

Table Hire

We have a great selection of table hire to suit a wide variety of events and special occasions. We can offer anything you might need from designer tables for events and conferences to traditional banqueting tables for weddings and functions.

Tables generally come in three types, based on how tall they are.

The tallest style of tables are called poseur tables or cocktail tables. These tables that you might find at bars and at cocktail parties and are designed either for standing up around or sitting at on bar stools. Our selection of poseur tables come in a range of colours and styles.

The lowest style of tables are coffee tables. These are low tables which are used for placing cups of coffee (hence the name), magazines and the like on and are usually surrounded by sofas or couches. We have a range of coffee tables for any type of event.

In the middle are banqueting tables. These are a set size (30 inches) in height and are the standard size for dining tables. We have round, oval and rectangular tables which can help with any size or layout of room.

Catering Equipment Hire

Whether it’s chafing dishes to keep food warm or double bottle coolers to keep beer cold, we’ve got you covered with our range of catering equipment hire. We have an extensive selection of ovens, fridges and cookers ready for use in a range of situations.

Some items, like our double door bottle coolers and display fridges are equally popular in an outdoor setting at events like festivals and fetes as they are for indoor events. These kinds of items are incredibly popular in the summer and availability can get stretched. In colder times there’s nothing better than a nice warm pie or pastry – and no better piece of equipment to make it than our turbofan ovens.

We stock appliances powered both by gas and electricity to give our customers maximum of choice. All appliances are inspected, cleaned and tested prior to delivery for peace of mind.

Planning Your Mere (Wilts) Event

Mere hosts a variety of gatherings, ranging from village hall meetings and local community festivals to private celebrations in historic farmhouses. For these events, organizers frequently require functional furniture such as folding chairs and trestle tables. We also supply essential catering equipment, including commercial ovens and refrigeration units, alongside glassware and linen for formal dinners. Whether you are planning a small gathering in a community space or a large marquee function on private land, we provide the durable equipment needed for your setup.

When planning an event in this rural part of Wiltshire, consider the venue access and available space. For indoor functions, confirm dimensions to verify that your chosen tables and chairs will fit comfortably. Outdoor events require level ground and proximity to power sources for catering equipment. We recommend allowing for ten percent extra glassware to cover potential breakages.
