Book your oval non slip waiters tray hire online today. This black 685mm polypropylene tray holds multiple items securely. Prices start from £3.00 ex-VAT.

Securing drinks and plates during busy events requires commercial-grade equipment. Adding our oval non slip waiters tray hire to your equipment list gives your catering staff the stability they need to navigate crowded venues. This 685mm by 560mm tray consists of black polypropylene and features a high-friction surface that grips glassware and crockery firmly. The generous dimensions allow waitstaff to carry multiple place settings or rounds of drinks in a single trip, reducing footfall between the kitchen and the dining area.
The rigid 35mm deep rim prevents items from sliding off the edge while staff move between tables. Professional caterers and venue managers rely on this specific format to maintain high service standards at corporate banquets, weddings, and gala dinners. Pair these trays with our catering equipment hire to outfit your entire back-of-house operation. During course clearing, the large surface area helps teams strip settings from our table hire inventory in record time.
Breakages happen during fast-paced hospitality service. Every oval non slip waiters tray hire includes our Free Minor Damage Waiver to cover accidental scratches or minor wear to the surface. You never pay a security deposit, keeping your event budget clear for other expenses. Expo Hire operates a fully online booking system, meaning you bypass lengthy phone calls and quote requests. You see live stock availability and exact pricing directly on this page. Our system calculates delivery from £40 ex-VAT by road distance from our Birmingham headquarters or one of our 11 regional depots across England and Wales.
Maintaining hygiene between courses takes minimal effort, as the polypropylene material wipes clean with a damp cloth. The black finish resists peeling and maintains a professional appearance throughout your hire period. Stock levels update in real time.

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.
