Berkshire (abbreviated Berks) is a county in south east England. It is has been recognised as the Royal County of Berkshire due to Windsor Castle being located within it's boundaries. The county shares boundaries with Oxfordshire to the north, Buckinghamshire to the north east, Greater London to the east, Surrey to the south-east, Wiltshire to the west and Hampshire to the south.
Information technology firms have long been connected with Reading, with companies such as ICL and Digital making their headquarters there while confectionary company Mars are based in Slough. Bracknell is also home to high-tech industries with Panasonic, Fujitsu and Hewlett-Packard all having offices within the town, while Vodafone have based themselves in Newbury. The county is also home to a number of racecourses, with Ascot being the most famous.
Berkshire is very much connected to the "Establishment", thanks to the famous school at Eton and the military academy in Sandhurst.
We're proud to deliver event hire to venues throughout Berkshire. Some of the items we deliver include:
Gazebo Hire in Berkshire
Rain is both unpredictable and inconsistent. It’s possible to have days of glorious sunshine in Berkshire, Surrey and South Oxfordshire only for the drops to start falling when you have an event. This means it’s often key to have some under cover space at your event – particularly 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 doesn’t want to play ball.
We deliver gazebos to all kinds of events and occasions and have both large gazebos for hire and smaller ones in stock. 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 for them.

The pop up gazebo packages for hire we have are made to commercial specifications and come with durable coverings and sturdy poles. While this means that our gazebos are not that suitable for formal events where presentation is of utmost importance, it also means that our gazebos aren’t cheap and flimsy. They are 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.
Exhibition Hire in Berkshire
It doesn’t really matter if you’re exhibiting at the Kassam Stadium in Oxford or a local trade show, as a company it’s important for you to get your exhibition hire right. We know how important first impressions are, and we want you to get the best possible result when meeting potential customers, partners and suppliers.
Selling your products at an important show? Having them displayed in the best way possible is vital and our display cabinets for hire are perfect for the job. We have sizes from a simple counter top case to huge wide and tall units, with and without lockable storage areas. All display cabinets are fitted with LED lights to help ensure your products and services are shown in the best light possible.
If it’s a meeting space you need, we’ve got the exhibition furniture hire for you. For those people looking for something comfy and relaxing we’ve got sofas and coffee tables to create the perfect informal space. For those with a tighter budget or footprint, we have poseur tables and bar stools to create a contemporary stand up space to clinch those deals.
Table Hire in Berkshire
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 tables for hire as simple a process as possible from picking what you need to getting them delivered to your event in Reading, Berkshire and the surrounding area.
Getting the right kind of tables for hire is a simple process. There are three types of table on hire, which match different styles of seating. For bar stools and stand-up type affairs, the tallest kind of table is best. These tables are known as cocktail tables or poseur tables and normally quite small in diameter, helping to maximise space. For relaxed meeting spaces with sofas and armchairs, a coffee table makes a great addition as a space for drinks or promotional material.
Between those we have banqueting tables, which are the main table hire we offer. These too come in different shapes and sizes to help different sized event spaces. Each table product page helpfully lists the number of people which can sit around it, and also has a recommended size of linen to make ordering a doddle.
Patio Heater Hire in Berkshire
The unpredictability of British weather can make hosting an outdoor event a challenge but you can at least be sure to keep your guests warm with patio heater hire. Event organisers rent patio heaters from us throughout the year so that they are less reliant on good weather. We deliver patio heaters for hire throughout Berkshire, South Oxfordshire and Surrey.
We offer two kinds of outdoor patio heater hire; electric and LPG. Electric patio heaters are great solutions when it’s a specific enclosed space to heat up as they provide a focused heat from their lamp. If it’s an outdoor space then LPG patio heater hire is a much better answer as these produce much more heat in a radial pattern.

We’ve built up a fair old bit of experience in patio heater hire and learning from this we really think we have the best gas patio heaters for hire on the market. They’re all easy to start and are fuel efficient so you get value for money. We also supply 13kg LPG canisters separately so you don’t need to worry about getting hold of fuel.
For very large spaces we recommend our space heaters for hire. These are a much more powerful version of a gas heater and kick off a tremendous amount of heat which can warm up a much larger amount of space.
Linen Hire in Berkshire
Linen hire might seem like a fussy detail for some but often it’s an integral part of an event’s details. People rent linen to ensure that their furniture matches the aesthetic or colour theme of an event, which is particularly important for functions like wedding receptions and banquets.
We offer linen for hire in many different colours, shapes and sizes to ensure we can help as many people as possible. This can make the choice a little confusing, but we have used our experience in this field to help ensure that it’s actually easy to get your linen order correct.

All of the product pages in our linen hire category have descriptions which include which size table each piece of linen works best with. We’ve also added linen recommendations to our table pages to help ensure you can order both together with confidence.
