Equip your TV or film production set with reliable catering equipment, furniture, and props from Expo Hire. Direct delivery to UK studios and locations.
Managing a TV or film production requires reliable equipment delivery and collection. Tight schedules mean you need everything on site, ready for use, when you need it. Expo Hire understands these demands. It delivers essential equipment direct to your studio set, location shoot, or production office anywhere in the UK. We help you equip temporary catering units, furnish production offices, and dress sets with functional items. Your crew and production staff use these resources for their work.
Feeding a production crew on location or in a studio requires robust catering equipment. You hire commercial kitchen appliances from Expo Hire. These appliances withstand sustained use. You can hire commercial ovens, including gas and electric models, along with fridges and freezers in various capacities, from under-counter units to large upright models holding up to 600 litres. Hot cupboards keep food you prepare warm for staff, while insulated food transport boxes move meals from a central kitchen to specific units without temperature loss. We also supply a selection of chafing dishes for buffet service, along with serving utensils, crockery sets for up to 200 guests, and cutlery for crew meals. This equipment supports your caterers in delivering consistent meal service through long shoot days.
For beverage service, consider our hot water boilers or urns, suitable for making tea and coffee for large teams. Cool boxes and ice buckets keep drinks chilled. You hire glassware and mugs, alongside water jugs and dispensers. All items arrive clean. You use them straight away. This reduces setup time for your catering teams and minimises disruption to your schedule.
Beyond catering, production requires functional furniture for various areas. You hire furniture for production offices from Expo Hire, including folding tables and chairs for temporary workspace setups. Our rectangular trestle tables come in lengths from 1.2 metres to 1.8 metres, seating up to eight people each. Directors and crew often need comfortable seating in green rooms or waiting areas, which our sofas and armchairs provide. Dressing room areas benefit from practical items like clothes rails, full-length mirrors measuring 1.5 metres tall, and portable screens for privacy. You also hire basic furniture for holding areas or temporary crew spaces.
For set dressing, you can hire various general-purpose props. These items add background detail to scenes, such as dining tables, chairs, shelving units, or small occasional tables. We focus on practical, functional items that fill spaces without distracting from the main action. Our stock includes items. These items suit a range of period and contemporary settings. You can specify exact dimensions and colours to match your production design needs. You hire upholstered chairs, bar stools, and outdoor furniture pieces that help create realistic environments on screen.
Expo Hire understands the tight deadlines and dynamic nature of TV and film production. We work with your production managers and logistics teams to schedule precise delivery and collection slots, even at short notice. Our dedicated transport team delivers direct to studios, backlots, and remote location shoots across the UK mainland. We prioritise communication. We keep you informed on delivery status. Equipment arrives when and where you need it. This support allows your team to focus on the creative aspects of your production, knowing that we handle essential physical resources with care and precision.
