Securing the right glassware sets the standard for your formal dining events.

Managing post-event cleanup demands significant time and labour. Expo Hire eliminates this burden through our "Send It Back Dirty" policy. You return your glassware unwashed, and we handle the cleaning at our depot. We also include a Free Minor Damage Waiver on every order. This covers accidental chips or breakages during your event, protecting your budget from unexpected replacement costs. You do not need to pay a security deposit to secure your booking.
Professional event organisers select this glass for prestigious occasions across England and Wales. Gala dinners and charity fundraisers benefit from the substantial 16oz capacity, reducing the frequency of table service refills. Corporate hospitality teams use these glasses alongside our glassware hire options to serve premium vintages at networking receptions. The classic Michelangelo design integrates well into wedding breakfast settings at grand hotel ballrooms or countryside manor venues.
Precision matters when preparing banqueting tables for hundreds of guests. Position the 16oz wine glass at the top right of the place setting, directly above the main dinner knife. Aligning the rim with the top edge of the main plate creates a straight, organised line across your venue. Pair these glasses with our crockery hire and cutlery hire ranges to complete your formal dining layout.

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.
