Sandton: the events, the weather and the hire firms
Corporate demand sets the pace in Sandton. Year-end functions, product launches and client cocktail evenings in the financial district and the office parks of Rivonia and Sunninghill call for cocktail tables, lounge sets, bar stools and ghost chairs, often delivered after hours and collected late the same day or early the next morning. Large homes in Bryanston, Hyde Park and Morningside host garden weddings, milestone birthdays and bar mitzvahs under marquees, and some complexes have strict rules on parking and truck access. Across the M1, Alexandra books funeral tents and plastic chairs most weekends. Much of the stock comes in from warehouses in Wynberg, Kramerville and industrial areas further out, and after-hours delivery or loading bay bookings usually add to the quote.
The requests we see from Sandton usually come from:
- Companies, conferences and functions: seminars, training days, product launches and AGMs in hotels, offices and marquees
- Funerals, memorials and unveilings: a memorial service in a hall where guests sit in rows for the eulogies
- Weddings and engagements: rarely, though padded chairs are sometimes hired for a long church ceremony
