There are major retail concentrations at Surrey Quays, Elephant and Castle as well as central Peckham.
Southwark is home to various landmarks, including Tower Bridge, the Millenium Bridge and Blackfriars Bridge, along with the Tate Modern art gallery and Shakespeare's Globe Theatre.
We're proud to deliver event hire to venues throughout Southwark. Some of the items we can deliver include:
Southwark Table Hire
Table hire comes in a wide range of heights and sizes to match all kinds of occasions. We’ve built a large range with everything from traditional trestle tables all the way up to designer meeting tables for those elite meeting spaces – all delivered throughout the Edgware, Harrow and Middlesex areas seven days a week.
There are three basic types of table to choose from when looking through our furniture hire 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.
In the middle are banqueting tables, which are one of our most frequently hired product. These are designed for sitting and eating at and are often hired for functions such as weddings and banquets. They come in different shapes and sizes, enabling customers to choose which best fits their event space. Our product pages will advise how many can sit around each and suggest the best size of linen for each.
Southwark Gazebo Hire
The last thing you want if you’re holding a streetfood event in North London is the rain causing havoc. Having space under cover is a necessity when hosting an outdoor function of any kind – especially if you’re the one who is going to be stuck outside all day. 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 every conceivable kind of outdoor event 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 offer are made with commercial specifications in mind and come with durable coverings and sturdy poles. This means that the gazebos we offer are not that suitable for formal events where presentation is of utmost importance, but it also means that our gazebos aren’t cheap and flimsy either. 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.
Southwark Kitchen Hire
Setting up any kind of kitchen requires some careful choices to make sure equipment is not only right for the food to be cooked but also for the setting it is being used in. Oven hire is one of the bigger components of any kitchen and getting that wrong can be an expensive mistake.
At Expo Hire London we offer the choice of both LPG and electric ovens for hire; each of which are designed for different usage. Electric ovens for hire are for indoor areas where they can be used to bake, roast and grill food easily. However, because electric ovens need lots of power to run they cannot be used outdoors. The wattage required by electric ovens can easily trip temporary power supplies such as generators and extension leads. The portability of LPG bottles make LPG ovens the perfect choice for usage outside; even an oven with powerful burners like our six burner oven can happily run off an LPG bottle. However, LPG ovens are not designed to be used indoors due to the potential lack of ventilation of exhaust fumes.
Offering high quality stock has always been something that we pride ourselves upon and because of this we frequently replace our ovens with new ones. This is particularly important with ovens which are often the main workhorse of a kitchen and allows our customers to order from us with peace of mind.
Southwark Patio Heater Hire
One of the big challenges event organisers face with outdoor events is keeping guests warm, particularly thanks to the unpredictability of the British climate. We deliver patio heaters for hire throughout North West London and Middlesex providing a heating solution that doesn’t break the bank.
Patio Heater hire comes in two types; LPG and electric. Electric patio heaters are great for focused heat on specific enclosed areas; however the power required to run this type of product means that there needs to be a good power source nearby. If it is outdoor heater hire you want, then LPG is the way to go. These heaters are perfect for open areas where heat needs to be radiated outwards.
Our experience has helped us rent outdoor patio heaters that are reliable and fuel efficient; we have sourced the best models possible and all have an easy to use electric ignition. We also supply 13kg LPG bottles separately so that you don’t need to worry about where to get your fuel from.
If the space you have to heat is huge then our space heaters for hire might be a better solution. These are more industrial and noisier than a standard patio heater, but they give off an immense amount of heat which will heat a much larger area.
No Security Deposit required
Damage deposits are not a worry when ordering event hire from Expo Hire London. Instead, we run a free minor damage waiver scheme to cover minor damage or loss, so you don’t need to worry if you break the odd glass or plate. We do charge for excessive or negligent loss or damage at 10x the hire price. Please check our terms and conditions for full details.
