Event Hire for the Solent, Hampshire and Dorset

Expo Hire Solent supplies event equipment to venues and event organisers. Corporate event teams book stock for functions at the Bournemouth International Centre, Portsmouth Guildhall and Southampton Guildhall. Wedding planners use the website to hire guest seating, dining tables and glassware for receptions at venues like the Ageas Bowl Southampton, Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, Beaulieu Motor Museum and Broadlands. Caterers use the same system to hire cooking equipment and service items. You can check live stock, see your price, and place an order online without a quote.

Furniture Hire for Southampton, Portsmouth and Bournemouth

Event planners in Southampton, Portsmouth and Bournemouth need furniture that fits the space and arrives on schedule. We supply chair hire for conferences, dinners and ceremonies, plus table hire for dining, registration desks and back of house use. Book Chiavari chairs for a wedding breakfast at a venue in the New Forest, or folding chairs for a graduation ceremony. Event teams in Winchester, Salisbury, Andover and Basingstoke use the same stock, so you can cover city centre venues and rural sites with one delivery plan.

Catering Equipment Hire for Hampshire and Dorset

Caterers book catering equipment hire when they need ovens, hot cupboards, LPG cooking kit and serving equipment without investment in owned stock. We deliver to hotel kitchens, temporary event spaces and loading bays across the region. If your event involves a large dinner in Poole, a canapé reception in Christchurch or a buffet service in Weymouth, you can build the order around your menu and guest numbers. Our stock levels update on the website, so you can confirm key items like fridges and freezers before the date is full.

Outdoor Event Hire for Festivals and Shows

We supply outdoor hire for large public events and seasonal occasions. Organisers use our stock for support jobs at Bournemouth Air Festival, Goodwood events and Cowes Week. We also deliver equipment for university graduations at Southampton, Portsmouth and Bournemouth. You can order outdoor seating, barriers and service counters in the quantities required for large crowds. Event teams in Eastleigh, Fareham, Gosport and Dorchester can access the same equipment through the online booking system.

Delivery, Tracking and Online Booking

Expo Hire delivers across the Solent region, Hampshire, Dorset, Wiltshire and West Sussex. Our team also makes deliveries to the Isle of Wight. Delivery starts from £40 ex VAT. You do not pay a deposit, and you can see live stock availability before you place the order. On delivery day, our drivers send live GPS tracking so your venue team can prepare for the handover. Book event hire for Swindon, Chippenham, Devizes or anywhere across the Solent through the same online system, then choose a delivery slot that fits your build schedule.
