Weddings, funerals, church services, harambees and launches. Work out the right quantities first, then reserve the dates.

Most hire mistakes are quantity mistakes: not enough shade, chairs arriving late, or a tent pitched where the ground floods. This is how we plan tent and chairs hire in Kisii and around Nyanza so the day runs quietly.

Working out what to hire

  • Guest count first. Count invited guests, then add for the people who always come anyway.
  • Seating style. Rows fit more people than round tables in the same area.
  • Shade for everyone. Plan cover for all seats, not just the main section - rain and midday sun both arrive uninvited.
  • Extra zones. Cooking, serving, gifts, ushers and a small VIP area each need their own space.
  • The ground. Sloping or soft ground changes anchoring, so tell us the venue.

Not sure? Send us the guest number and the venue and we will propose a layout.

Have a date in mind? Check availability and reserve or call +254 723 755772 (Sun-Fri, 8:00am-5:00pm).

How booking works

  1. Choose your items and tell us the start and end dates - hire is charged for the days you hold the equipment.
  2. We check the calendar. Items already reserved for those dates are shown as unavailable, so you never double-book.
  3. We confirm your reservation and send it in writing, with a delivery and setup time.
  4. Our team delivers, pitches and sets up, then collects after the event.

You do not need an account to request a booking. You will get a reference you can use to follow progress on our tracking page.

Book early for the busy season

December, April and August fill first, along with most Saturdays. Reserving early costs nothing extra and protects your date.
