Sunday Delivery and Collection

Expo Hire is the only event hire company in the UK that delivers and collects on Sundays. Choose morning or afternoon. No surcharge.

Sunday Delivery and Collection

Expo Hire delivers and collects event equipment on Sundays. Most traditional hire companies operate Monday to Saturday. We cover all seven days of the week. We never apply a transport surcharge for Sunday bookings.

Why hire from Expo Hire

  • The only hire company in the UK that delivers and collects on Sundays. Morning and afternoon windows available every day of the year, including Bank Holidays.
  • Live GPS tracking on every delivery and collection. A tracking link and SMS ETA are sent on delivery morning. No other UK hire company offers this for both directions.
  • Every order 100% guaranteed before you pay. Stock and logistics are confirmed at the point of booking. No substitutions or shortfalls on the day.
  • No security deposit on any order. No damage deposit, no money held back — ever.
  • Free Minor Damage Waiver on every order. Accidental breakages during normal event use are covered at no extra charge.
  • Choose morning or afternoon for delivery and collection independently. Your schedule, your venue, your window.
  • 11 regional depots across England and Wales. Orders route automatically from the nearest depot to your venue.

Aligning transport with your event schedule

Most events take place over the weekend. Weddings run from Friday setup through to Sunday brunch. Outdoor festivals build the site on Friday and clear the field on Sunday afternoon. Corporate away-days fill the venue from Friday evening to Sunday lunch. Stadium events require equipment for back to back weekend fixtures.

If your supplier cannot collect on a Sunday, you face a choice. You pay for an extra day of hire and wait for a Monday collection. You leave the equipment unattended outside the venue overnight. Most venue contracts forbid unattended equipment. The extra day hire charge impacts your budget.

A Sunday collection removes both problems. You clear the room the moment the event finishes. You hand the equipment back to our driver.


Standard pricing every day of the week

Other suppliers might consider a Sunday transport request. They add a premium surcharge. They offer no guarantee of arrival. Expo Hire presents Sunday as a standard calendar option at checkout. You pay the standard transport rate, starting from £40 ex VAT, just like any weekday booking.


Select your preferred time window

You choose between a morning or afternoon transport slot for every delivery and every collection. A morning slot means your equipment arrives before midday. Your setup team gains the full afternoon to prepare the room. An afternoon slot means delivery from midday onwards. This suits venues that need the morning to clear a previous event.

The same choice applies to your collection. A morning collection frees up the venue for afternoon bookings. An afternoon collection gives your catering team time to finish a breakfast service. You make this choice at checkout. We include it in your transport cost.


How to select your weekend dates

You select your delivery and collection dates in the basket. Sunday appears as an available option when our depot covers your postcode on that date. You choose your morning or afternoon preference. We confirm the details in your order summary. You can monitor the van arrival via our live tracking portal.

Why Sunday delivery matters for events

Weekend events end when the room still needs to clear. A wedding can run into Sunday morning, and the venue may refuse to hold hired furniture until Monday. Sunday collection removes that pressure and gets the stock off site before the next booking arrives.

Festival sites face the same problem at a bigger scale. The public leaves on Sunday evening, contractors start striking the site and the organiser needs catering kit, furniture and service stock moved out without adding another day on the field.

Corporate events also need Sunday transport. A hotel ballroom may be booked from Friday to Sunday for one client and sold again for Monday breakfast. Sunday delivery or collection keeps the hotel schedule intact and cuts extra hire days.


How Sunday delivery and collection works

The process matches a weekday booking. You select the Sunday date in the basket, choose a morning or afternoon slot and complete the order online. On the day, Expo Hire sends a text message with your time window and a live GPS tracking link.

The tracking link helps venue teams and planners line up staff for unload or collection. Morning slots suit setup crews who want the full day ahead. Afternoon slots suit venues that need the morning to clear a prior event.

You do not need a separate account or a different booking route for Sunday. The same checkout flow handles all seven days of the week.


Venues that benefit most

  • Hotels and function rooms: room turnaround matters because the next booking may start within hours.
  • Outdoor venues: weather risk rises each extra day that stock sits outside after the event ends.
  • Marquee weddings: marquee contractors often need the site back fast so they can strike the structure and release the land.

Sunday service questions

Is there an extra charge for Sunday?

Expo Hire treats Sunday as a standard transport day. The basket shows the transport cost before payment, and the company does not add a Sunday surcharge on top.

Can I book Sunday collection with weekday delivery?

Yes. You can mix the delivery day and collection day to fit the event schedule, subject to route coverage for your postcode and date.

What time does Sunday service run?

Sunday service uses the same morning or afternoon slot choice as weekdays. You pick the preferred window at checkout, then receive a text update and live tracking link on the day.
