25kg PVC giant chess set with 32 pieces. Suits corporate garden parties, festivals and outdoor receptions. No security deposit and online booking available.
Add a competitive edge to your corporate function or festival with our giant chess set hire. This 32-piece game creates an interactive focal point for guests and delegates. Each set covers a 3-metre by 3-metre playing area, giving players plenty of room to move the oversized figures. You can set up the board on grass, decking, or paved terraces.
Manufacturers construct these pieces from durable PVC, and the entire game weighs 25.00kg. The weighted bases keep the figures stable during outdoor use, preventing wind from disrupting the match. Event organisers frequently book this item alongside our chair hire to create dedicated spectator seating around the board. You avoid the hassle of sourcing multiple suppliers by adding games and furniture hire to a single order.
Expo Hire operates 11 regional depots, allowing us to deliver directly to your venue. Our system calculates delivery from £40 ex-VAT based on road distance from your nearest branch. We include a Free Minor Damage Waiver on every order, protecting you against accidental scratches or scuffs during play. You also avoid tying up your budget, as we require no security deposit for any booking.
On your delivery day, you receive an SMS with an estimated arrival time and a link to track our vehicle live. After your guests finish playing, you pack the pieces away, and our drivers collect them. You can pair this game with table hire to establish a complete outdoor entertainment zone. Stock levels update in real time on our website.

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.
