Secure your storm oval dinner plate - hire for professional events. This light grey 12-inch vitrified porcelain dish includes our return unwashed service.

Present main courses on a contemporary canvas with the storm oval dinner plate - hire. This light grey dish measures 0.3000m in length and 0.2350m in width, giving professional caterers ample space for generous food presentations. The distinctive shape provides a modern alternative to traditional round plates. Event organisers use this specific profile to plate multi-course tasting menus or substantial main dishes at corporate galas. The 0.0300m height keeps sauces and gravies contained within the central dining area.
Formed from Porcelite Seasons Vitrified Porcelain, this 12-inch tableware withstands the heavy demands of commercial catering environments. The subtle light grey finish complements diverse colour schemes and food styles. Your culinary team can plate hot meals directly onto the surface, as the material resists chipping during busy service periods. Independent caterers and venue managers rely on this commercial grade quality for large-scale banquets and intimate private dining functions alike.
Professional buyers select these elegant oval plates for high-end product launches, wedding receptions, and exhibition stand hospitality. Setting up your dining layout requires minimal effort. Position these dishes at the centre of each place setting, aligning the long edge parallel to the table edge for a clean, organised look. They integrate with the full Storm crockery hire range, allowing you to build a cohesive tableware setup. You can also pair them with our table hire options to complete your dining space.
Washing up takes valuable time after a large function. Our "Send It Back Dirty" service applies to all crockery, glassware, and cutlery. You return the items unwashed, and we handle the cleaning at our Birmingham depot. Every order also includes a free Minor Damage Waiver, covering accidental chips or breakages during your event. No other UK rental company includes this standard protection. We supply named clients including the BBC, ITV, and Cambridge University with this exact level of service.
We operate 11 regional depots, delivering commercial grade equipment directly to venues. On your delivery day, you receive live vehicle tracking and an SMS ETA based on your order number and postcode. We require no security deposit, though a 25% advance deposit option exists for orders over £500. You can browse live stock levels and pricing directly on this page. Add the required quantity to your basket and confirm your dates online to secure your catering equipment hire.

Unless the two person carriage charge has been paid for, deliveries and collections are made by a single driver, who has 15 minutes to deliver or collect your order.
Our drivers are not allowed to take items up or down stairs or into lifts, and all deliveries need to be made within 50 metres of the vehicle. Any delays beyond the standard delivery time caused by access issues or items not being ready will be charged at £120 per hour or part thereof.
If a driver arrives and delivery or collection is impossible then unfortunately a wasted journey charge will apply. You will be sent a live tracking link so you can monitor your delivery in real time — our drivers do not make phone calls to notify of arrival times.
If access to collecting the hired equipment is denied, blocked, or impassable, a wasted collection journey will be automatically charged. Any parking tickets issued to vehicles whilst executing a delivery or collection will be charged for whilst we appeal.
