Event organisers managing large-scale productions, corporate gatherings, exhibitions, or significant private functions depend on precise equipment logistics. Securing the right furniture hire items or staging is only one step. You must coordinate transport so your items arrive on site on time. Expo Hire manages the entire transport process across our established delivery areas hire network. We bring your chosen items directly to your venue. Our team prepares everything for immediate setup. This service takes the burden of transport management from your team, freeing you to concentrate on event execution. You avoid delays common with ad-hoc transport.
Expo Hire operates 11 regional depots spanning the country. Birmingham serves as our head office and primary distribution hub. Additional depots in Manchester, Bristol, London, and other strategic locations act as crucial distribution points. They help us manage high volumes of equipment and organise direct routes. From these bases, we supply major cities such as Leeds, Newcastle, Cardiff, and Southampton, alongside regional towns and rural locations. The fleet features different vehicle sizes, from smaller vans for city centre access to larger lorries for bulk orders. This flexibility allows us to meet different venue requirements. Customers verify postcode coverage using our online tool. Please note, we do not deliver to Scotland or Northern Ireland. The service area covers England and Wales only. This maintains strict operational standards.
We calculate transport charges for each order based on road distance from your nearest depot. Delivery starts from £40 ex-VAT. The calculation considers several factors, including the total volume and weight of your order, and the vehicle you require for safe transport. Moving a full pallet of chair hire stock requires different vehicle capacity and fuel consumption compared to a compact order of table linen. Additional factors include any timing requirements you have, such as out-of-hours drop-offs or strict time slots. We advise customers to provide full access details at the time of booking. This includes loading bay information, lift access availability, specific entry points, and contact numbers for on-site personnel. Clear instructions help us execute a prompt drop-off and collection. Collection charges mirror the outbound costs, reflecting the return journey and vehicle allocation. We schedule collections to align with event teardown.
Every order includes a Free Minor Damage Waiver, giving you peace of mind during your event. We require no security deposit, freeing up your budget for other event expenses. On the day of your event, you receive live vehicle tracking and an SMS ETA. This keeps you informed of your driver's exact location across all delivery areas hire zones. For an accurate quotation, please input your postcode when placing an order online. Our system calculates the precise cost based on your items and location within our delivery areas hire boundaries. Prices and live stock levels update in real time. Select your hire dates to check availability and confirm your booking entirely online, with no phone call required.
