Swadlincote is a former mining town in Derbyshire. It lies on the borders of Leicestershire and Staffordshire, about five miles south east of Burton-upon-Trent and nort-west of Ashby-de-la-Zouch. Both coal and clay were mined in Swadlincote, with the clay being valuable due to its high aluminia content. This made it suitable to make into pipes which were resistant to sewage. Coal mining finished in 1983 but there are still light manufacturing and service companies sited on large industrial estates in the area.

\\\Table Hire in Swadlincote
\\\It’s not hard to rent tables from us, even if you are new to the whole idea of hiring furniture. We’ve done everything we can to make getting furniture hire as simple a process as possible from picking what you need to getting them delivered to your event in Derby, Nottingham, Leicester or the surrounding area.
There are three basic types of table to choose from when looking through our catalogue, with each table right for a different kind of setting. For example, coffee tables work best with sofas and armchairs, suiting relaxed meeting spaces and breakout areas. Cocktail tables or poseur tables as they are often called are tall and work best with bar stools. These can also be used for stand-up style meetings, with their small diameter allowing them to fit in a small footprint like an exhibition stand.
The most common style of table we hire out are banqueting tables or trestle tables. These are the standard table for any event where people sit and eat like a wedding reception or banquet. There are different sizes of banqueting tables available, and with this in mind we’ve listed on each product page how many people can sit around each one and what size of linen we recommend.
\\\Linen Hire in Swadlincote
\\\Linen hire is one of the important details for events such as weddings and banquets. In fact, people rent linen for all kinds of events, whether it’s to ensure furniture matches colour schemes or just to beautify a standard banqueting table in an event space.
We offer linen for hire in many different colours, shapes and sizes to try to cater for as many different styles and type of event as possible. This can make the process a little bit daunting for anyone who has never hired linen before but it doesn’t need to be seen as a challenge.

Using our experience of linen hire, we’ve put details into the description on the product page for every piece of linen so it’s easy to work out what size table it’s for. We’ve also put recommended sizing of linen on each of our table product pages to help the process there.
\\\Gazebo Hire in Swadlincote
\\\Holding an outdoor event in Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire or Derbyshire can be a fun experience when the sun is shining. However, we all know how the weather can change very quickly and sometimes it’s necessary to have some space under cover – especially if you’re the one spending all day outside. A pop up gazebo for hire from us can help make sure your event can be a success even if the weather is less than great.
We deliver gazebos to all kinds of events and have both large gazebos for hire and smaller ones in stock to match up to the covered space you need. All of our pop up gazebos for rent come complete with side walls and weights so you don’t have to worry about sourcing any accessories.

The pop up gazebo packages for hire we offer are designed with commercial specifications in mind. They all come with durable coverings and sturdy poles, and while this means that our gazebos are not that suitable for formal events where presentation is key it also means that our gazebos aren’t cheap and flimsy. Our gazebos also incredibly easy to erect – simply telescope the frame apart until it reaches full size, extend the legs and then put the cover on top

Fridge Hire in Swadlincote
\\\Need to keep food and drink cold at your next event or occasion but don’t have the fridge space to do it? We work with events and occasions of all kinds along with commercial and pop up kitchens throughout Leicestershire, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire to help with fridge hire needs. Our expert drivers deliver fridges to venues throughout the region frequently, helping to ensure that event organisers don’t need to worry about keeping things cold.
We have a selection of fridges for hire on offer at Expo Hire East Midlands. The upright glass-fronted display fridges are one of the most frequently hired products we offer, going everywhere to people such as retailers, exhibitors and event organisers. There are also double door bottle coolers which are great for places such as pop-up bars as an under counter fridge. For customers who are after something a little bit more specialist in nature we also stock wine fridges, counter top fridges and chilled drink dispensers.
We understand how commercial kitchens need space to not only store and chill food but also for preparation. To solve this problem we offer counter fridges with integrated workspaces which are designed for this specific problem and which can be wheeled quickly into position with ease. At the other end of the spectrum, our extra large double door fridges are just what is needed for kitchens with large storage requirements.

Planning Your Swadlincote Event
Swadlincote hosts a variety of functions, ranging from corporate gatherings at local industrial park offices to community celebrations in village halls. Common events include conferences, training days, and private parties. Organisers frequently require robust trestle tables, comfortable seating, and catering equipment to service these gatherings. Given the town's history of manufacturing, many events take place in practical spaces that require portable furniture solutions. We supply glassware, linen, and kitchen appliances to support these diverse venues throughout the Derbyshire area.
When planning, calculate your equipment needs based on the capacity of the chosen venue. For a standard seated dinner, allow at least one square metre per person to accommodate tables and chairs comfortably. Consider the access requirements of your site, as older rural halls may have different loading restrictions compared to modern industrial units. If you are organising an outdoor event on local green spaces, check for level ground and proximity to power sources. We offer reliable delivery schedules to match your specific timing.
